✅ Sunny upstairs deck with lovely views

✅ Sleeps 4 - a queen plus a double

✅ Kitchenette, Smart TV & 100 Mbps WiFi

✅ Peaceful Tihiotonga, own parking



The Space:

The Studio is a private, self-contained guesthouse tucked into a quiet corner of Tihiotonga, with lovely views and a sunny deck to enjoy them from. It's a comfortable two-level retreat that sleeps up to four - relaxed enough for a couple, with room for a small family or a second pair.



HIGHLIGHTS

⭐️ Private, self-contained studio with its own entrance and parking

⭐️ Sunny upstairs deck with lovely views over the surrounds

⭐️ Sleeps up to four - a queen bed and a double upstairs

⭐️ Open-plan lounge, dining and kitchenette downstairs

⭐️ Smart TV for movie nights and fast 100 Mbps WiFi

⭐️ Just 3 minutes to Te Puia and around 11 to the Redwoods

⭐️ Peaceful, residential Tihiotonga setting

⭐️ Secret Spot Hot Tubs a short drive away



- BEDROOMS -

Upstairs bedroom with a queen bed and a double bed, opening onto the sunny deck.

Sleeps 4 in total. All bedding and linen supplied.



- BATHROOMS -

One bathroom with a separate toilet, downstairs.



- LIVING AREA -

Downstairs is an open-plan living space with a lounge, dining area and a kitchenette for preparing simple meals, plus a Smart TV and fast WiFi. Upstairs, the bedroom opens onto the sunny deck to take in the view.



- PARKING -

A dedicated off-street parking space for one vehicle, right outside.



Guest Access:

You'll have private access to The Studio, with a dedicated parking space for one vehicle right outside. The owners live in the main house on the property, but the living areas are completely separate - you share only the driveway - so your stay stays private throughout.



The Neighborhood:

The Studio sits in the tranquil, residential suburb of Tihiotonga, a peaceful base that's still close to Rotorua's best-known attractions. Te Puia and the Whakarewarewa geothermal valley are just up the road, the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest and the Secret Spot Hot Tubs are a short drive away, and central Rotorua with its shops, restaurants and lakefront is only about 10 minutes on.



Getting Around:

A car is the easiest way to get around out here, and there's a dedicated off-street park right outside. By car, Te Puia is about 3 minutes away, the Waiariki and Polynesian spas around 10, the Redwoods about 11, and Skyline, ZORB and Canopy Tours roughly 14. Rotorua Airport is about 14 minutes, and the city centre a short drive.



Other Things to Note:

A few things worth knowing: The Studio is a self-contained guesthouse on the same property as the owners' home, with separate living areas sharing only the driveway. It's set over two levels, with the bedroom and sunny deck upstairs and the living area, kitchenette and bathroom downstairs. There's a Smart TV, fast 100 Mbps WiFi and a dedicated parking space right outside.

Gorgeous views, cosy set-up

It was a delight to see views of the lake and Mount Ngongotaha from the house in addition to a field of adorable sheep right beside the house. Communication from the property owner and manager was perfect. All the necessities are provided, including linen, towels and soaps, and even access to streaming services on the TV! But I suggest bringing smaller bowls and a coffee plunger if you like filter coffee.
