Lisa(Host) was awesome to deal with. Loved the place this main house was located at. Beautiful garden and it’s surrounding. We enjoyed our stay very much and will come back to stay her if we are ever in Rotorua. But, the smell inside the house needs a refresher or odour clean. It’s definitely needs some maintenance as there are some things that’s broken (pool table room), some rooms need a change in carpet or upgrade
The house was big and nice
The house needs good air conditioning system

Beautifully Location, Large Area but Old, Broken & Badly maintained
Last minute booking, I saw mixed reviews & emailed the host for phone chat, but he suggested messaging, which felt like it would take too long. With limited options, we just hoped for the best.Before our trip, I got a msg from the host about house rules treating me like a teenager. The tone felt off for a family holiday. Upon noticing the booking is not accurate, I told Bachcare & host to clarify. Host claimed it wasn’t an error, implying we’d deliberately not booked for kids. I simply didn't argue & requested the extra amount. Before processing payment, I received multiple reminders as if I were going to skip out on it.Issues-Empty bottles found under the bed-Insects & spider webs around the house-Strong smell of Asian cooking lingered-Personal belongings from previous guests-Sharp, chipped glass-edged table that could easily hurt a child-No bathmats-Old ceramic heater couldn’t be used after Nov, the house gets cold in night, especially with two sick infants. Despite asking, the host showed no empathy toward the concern-Couch was broken and ignored- Pool room non-operational, unlike shown in the pictures—a clear misrepresentation-Upstairs bathroom drain clogged, and despite informing the host, it wasn’t fixedThe host was proactive, but lacked empathy. While the house is large and spacious, I would caution others not to expect the Kiwi hospitality, especially at this high price. If you're not too picky, you might still have a good time. Paid 4k for 3 Nights
