About this property

Tarawera Twins - Two Homes, Spa Pools, Sleeps 16

Summary:

Two homes side by side, each with its own spa pool, and the Redwoods at the end of the street? Tarawera Twins is the one...



📍 Walk » Redwoods Forest trails

📍 Walk » Good Eastern Tap House & cafes

📍 7 min » Te Puia, Waiariki & Polynesian Spa

📍 15 min » Skyline, Zorb & Canopy Tours

📍 7 min » Rotorua Airport



✅ Two homes side by side - book the pair

✅ A private spa pool at each home

✅ Sleeps 16 - 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms

✅ Walk to the Redwoods & the Good Eastern



The Space:

Tarawera Twins is a clever setup for big groups - two townhouses side by side that you book together, so everyone has room to spread out while staying close. Between them they have seven bedrooms and four bathrooms and sleep up to 16. Each townhouse is a complete home in its own right, with its own kitchen, living area and private spa pool, and a connecting gate between the two backyards means you can open the courtyards into one or keep them private. Best of all, the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest is a short walk from the door.



HIGHLIGHTS

⭐️ Two townhouses side by side - book the pair for one big group

⭐️ Seven bedrooms and four bathrooms, sleeping up to 16

⭐️ A private spa pool at each home, with a connecting gate between the courtyards

⭐️ Each home fully self-contained - its own kitchen and living area

⭐️ A short walk to the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest

⭐️ Cafes, shops and the Good Eastern Tap House close by

⭐️ Off-street parking for four vehicles, plus on-street parking

⭐️ Linen and essentials supplied



- BEDROOMS -

Seven bedrooms in total across the two townhouses, sleeping up to 16 guests. Each home has its own bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and living area. All bedding and linen supplied.



- BATHROOMS -

Four bathrooms in total, spread across the two homes.



- LIVING AREA -

Each townhouse has its own full kitchen and comfortable living area, so the two groups have distinct spaces to relax in - coming together whenever you like.



- OUTDOOR AREA -

Each home has its own private spa pool in a courtyard, and a connecting gate between the two backyards lets you join them into one shared space or keep them separate.



- PARKING -

Off-street parking for four vehicles, with plenty of on-street parking nearby.



Guest Access:

Guests have exclusive use of both homes - all the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, lounges, outdoor areas and both spa pools. Open the connecting gate between the courtyards to make one big shared space, or keep them private. There's off-street parking for four vehicles and on-street parking nearby.



The Neighborhood:

Tarawera Twins is in Lynmore, one of Rotorua's most sought-after eastern suburbs, and the big drawcard is being able to walk to the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest - perfect for family walks or world-class mountain biking. Cafes, shops and the Good Eastern Tap House are close by, while Te Puia, the city's lakes, the Polynesian Spa and the rest of Rotorua's attractions are only a short drive away.



Getting Around:

You can walk straight to the Redwoods and the Good Eastern from the door. A car is handy for exploring further, with off-street parking for four. By car, Te Puia is about 5 minutes away, the Waiariki and Polynesian spas and Rotorua Airport around 7, and Skyline, ZORB and Canopy Tours roughly 15. The city centre and lakefront are a short drive.



Other Things to Note:

A few things worth knowing: the two spa pool courtyards can be joined by opening the connecting gate, or kept private if you prefer. Each townhouse is fully self-contained with its own kitchen, living area and spa pool, and linen and essentials are supplied. It's a great choice for families or groups who want the comfort of their own space plus easy access to each other.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Really good location and great that this property could accommodate a group of 15. Spa pools were a great and welcome addition. Unfortunately the cleaners did a pretty poor job. The bins weren't emptied and 2 hours after check in we had one of the cleaners pop in quickly to the courtyard to do something? Was a bit disconcerting. The downstairs bunk room in one of the units has some black mold on the walls behind the bunk beds which we cleaned ourselves. The coffee machine had the wrong plug so it was unusable even though pods were provided. Some of the bathrooms were below the standards and because and were constantly wet even having the fan on all the time. old landline phones stuck on walls, some broken. It's a shame because a bit of renovation and upkeep it would be nice place but it seems neglected and not well cared for. Downstairs bunk room was a converter garage and there were drafts coming through under the doors Despite good location and friendly neighbors wouldn't stay again
