The Space:

A spacious, comfortable holiday home right in the heart of Glenholme, made for larger groups and families and wonderfully central - you can walk into town or jump on a bike and ride to the Redwoods trails for the day. It has four private bedrooms set off a central hallway, and the living areas flow out to the back patio, where you can unwind in the thermally heated spa pool. Like a true Rotorua home, it runs on natural thermal heating, keeping the house warm and toasty through winter and heating the spa pool year-round. With two bathrooms plus a handy second shower and toilet, and a BBQ out the back, it's an easy, relaxed base for a bigger group.

The Neighborhood:

Tilsley Inn sits right in the heart of Glenholme, a central, mostly-residential Rotorua neighbourhood that's handy to everything. You can walk into town, and it's a quick bike ride to either entrance of the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest for a day on the trails. Te Puia and the Whakarewarewa geothermal area are just a couple of minutes away, and the Polynesian Spa and lakefront are around 6 minutes. Restaurants, cafés and shops are all close by.



Getting Around:

Everything's close here - you can walk into town, and it's an easy bike ride to the Redwoods. By car, Te Puia is just 2 minutes away, the city centre around 5, the Polynesian Spa about 6, the Redwoods roughly 8, Rotorua Airport about 12, and Skyline around 13. There's a garage and off-street parking.



Other Things to Note:

A nice thing to know: the house runs on Rotorua's natural thermal heating, so it stays warm through winter, and the spa pool out the back is thermally heated for year-round soaking. There's a second shower in the laundry and a second toilet in the garage, which are handy when you've got a bigger group. WiFi runs at around 56 Mbps - fine for browsing and streaming.

The house was a great location to the town center, and was perfect for the group I was traveling with. Was warm and had all the facilities we needed.Very spacious for a big family or group of friends.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Great property, plenty of space for bedrooms etc. Garden isn't much of a garden but there is a hot tub out there which is fab. Nice and clean. Kitchen did have quite a lot of ants but thats not exactly their fault, could have been the previous people staying there. Nice big TV and excellent communication from the host. Easy check in. House is definitely an older house but its warm and comfortable.

Great location and plenty of space!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2023
Home was nice although hours before we are due to arrive we get a message that theres a problem with bore and spa and heating wont work. Big disappointment as the spa was a big reason why we booked there. We were offered a discount voucher to a spa place that was not suitable for our babies. When i asked for something else that would better suit our family, i never heard back from anyone. Like i said, the home was nice but the experience overall disappointing.
