It was perfectly set up for my group. It was warm, spacious, and had everything we needed.

Having a large couch was one of our favourite things. Being able to be together in the main living area was fantastic

Great location, very comfortable had everything we needed

Everything we needed for our stay was there. Complete facilities with spa and bbq. There were also several heat pumps which made our whole stay very comfortable. Toys for the kids are available which was great! The host was very responsive also. Parking space was big enough for atleast 3 big cars. And the view of Mt. Ruapehu was awesome!

The only issue for us being a big group was having only 2 bathrooms. It was quite tricky and some had to wake up very early to take a shower. The instructions were quite strict but understandably so.

Spacious house in a useful setup. Simply but effectively built. Equipment is good and comfort was overall really nice. Check-in and out was simple. Location still ok, but it is part of a bigger property with similar houses around.

The rules are extremely strickt. I do understand that care needs to be taken but either in the past a lot of misuse happened or the owners are overly worried. The way how rules are set and communicated, and penalty payments are set as a thread, made our stay much less enjoyable. We always worried anything we did not do according to owners plan would be a costly problem (jacuzzi, trash, leave house clean - the simple things, not the obvious ones like larger damage). Jacuzzi is a good example: cover was missing clips, but the T&C make you liable for any damage - I left with a misc feeling knowing I didn’t do nothing. Fortunately, the owner seemed to know but it was not communicated beforehand. Therefore, I would not rebook it.
