Rotorua Forest Getaway is owned by thoughtful and caring owners . The kitchen appliances, utensils and supplies were one of the best amongst all our stays around NZ. They even provided high chairs, travel cots and baby tub which are ideal for families with babies / toddlers. It is clean and located at a quiet street, yet located at a conenient location. We'll definitely come again.

Loved our stay. The bathrooms were so clean which gave me peace of mind having my children use the facilities. My kids had the best time with the Bouncy Castle, Heated pool, Playground and enjoyed the whole experience with the dinosaurs. The staff are all so friendly and most importantly we felt safe - a real family vibe. We have stayed at many other places in Rotorua but this is by far the best for families with younger children.
