I must admit , saw some less than positive reviews recently for this place, but was pleasantly surprised. On arrival check in was quick and efficient, receptionist was friendly and helpful, we were shown to our room and told about the trout flies. Hotel was clean and looked smart, pool area was well kept. Lovely location on the lake but a drive into town (which I knew when booking) Rooms a short walk from the Car Park. Room was lovely, pretty large, very clean and decorated smartly, smelt fresh. Bed was comfy , large tv, fridge and a clean bathroom with a good powerful, hot shower. We ate in the restaurant, had the chicken, food was delicious and large portions. Slight mix up over the wine, which was a bit slow coming(didn’t have our first choice) Wasn’t bothered by and didn’t really notice the trout flies. All in all great stay.

It was absolutely splendid and located in such a wonderful spot of Rotorua. My hubby and I spent our honeymoon here in the superior suite which was spacious, clean and cosy with a comfortable king bed and wonderful spa bath. The staff were lovely and the atmosphere there was warm and welcoming. I am a lover of sunsets and didn't know until we arrived, of the spectacular clear and perfect view you get to see of the sunset from the facility. We didn't get a chance with the sauna, jacuzzi, dining or massage treatment that they offer due to our own arrangements but we look forward to doing so in a warmer season. I highly recommend this place to relax and unwind. We will certainly stay here over and over again. Thank you Wai Ora. 10/10 🫶

The location is great. There wasn’t breakfast offered. We were very happy with the Vietnamese young lady, she was very helpful for any question we may have. On the contrary, there was a younger girl (who appears a local, she was very unhappy when question was asked and referred us to search on Google? We were very interested in knowing the Māori culture but instead we couldn’t find any helpful information until it was too late when we passed a Māori center???

I absolutely loved my room 21, private end room overlooking the lake with a balcony. The guy there at reception that greeted us was on point, he was on the bar, restaurant and served us tea, he mentioned he was only there for a week, he deserves credit for all he does. I ordered seafood chowder entree but received seafood chowder main where he didn't charge me full price as the chef who is new made a mistake. I had a good stay. Thanku 😀
