Heaven on earth

I told the host on leaving that "I am a Christian and I am going to heaven" (when I die). I said, "if you want to know what heaven is like, this is it."That is the ultimate 10 out of 10 for me.

Great Place in Rotorua!

We loved staying in this cute, comfortable, cozy space. It had everything we needed and we had a great time in Rotorua! The location was great- an easy drive to everywhere we wanted to visit, in a quiet and safe neighbourhood.

Great beachfront location.

Perfect Kiwi bach. Right on the beach and next to a park. Monty’s cafe across the road has great coffee and live music one of the evenings we were staying. Not too far to Whakatāne or Pāpāmoa. Recommend.
