Amazing
KKAmazing ambience and landscape inside of the Premise. Self-guided hiking tours were really nice, and I enjoy seeing all the wild lives inside of the lodge. Spacious rooms and amazing views. I enjoyed my stay very much.
FffcaiSolitaire is the top three luxury homestay in Rutua. On the shore of Lake Tarawera, the scenery is beautiful and the food is delicious. It is suitable for couples or couples to relax, not very suitable for children. The price is expensive and the price is not high.
GGuest UserGreat room and bathroom, both really clean. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms had a nice view and the breakfast was lovely!
On top of that, the owner was really nice and gave me loads of recommandations
Would 100% stay again
JJINJUChildren are not allowed, only 16 years old and above can be accommodated! Suitable for honeymoon couples! In New Zealand, don't think about breaking the rules of soft grinding and hard foaming. It is a rule not to allow children under the age of 16 to stay!
JJanJanThe cabin room is very distinctive, with the campervan, each independent cabin can be parked next to the quiet privacy, there is a small table and stool at the door to rest, and the outdoor environment is also very good. The front desk service was thoughtful and polite, and would take the initiative to introduce the surrounding tourism projects. I gave me a pack for free when I didn't bring the money to buy washing powder. The room is clean and tidy, there is a simple coffee table, the kitchen is in the courtyard, the guests can use it, there is a children's play room next to it, the humanization is very thoughtful

GGuest UserMany people come to the Blue Lake in RVs and yachts. Needless to say, the scenery of the Blue Lake is so beautiful. Sitting by the lake relaxes your teeth and scalp. The resort has separate toilets and shared toilets/bathrooms. Mostly locals come for water sports and swimming/camping, very few Chinese tourists. It is recommended to bring a swimming ring or surfboard from January to March. There are no restaurants around, so we brought instant noodles and tomatoes on our backs. After eating a few days later, we took a 10-minute taxi to the Landing Cafe next to Terawera Lake to eat. The beach was very lively on a sunny day, filled with children and adults with dogs🐶 Come and play in the water. The lake is crystal clear and opposite is a volcano. You can talk to local people with yachts and let them drive to the hot water beach at the foot of the volcano for a hot spring♨️.
GGuest UserThe room iwe stayed in have 3 double deck which is good for 6 person. The room is clean, with complete beddings, cutlery, electric kettle, ref , microwave oven, stove and cabinet inside the room for only $40 per head it is worrh it. There is also a thermal pool where we swim and you can bbq grill for free. The Toilet and showers are many so you dont have to wait or lined for use, and the kitchen also is very wide
GGuest UserIt was clean and I was very satisfied.
However, it seemed like the manager's room was separated by a curtain, so when I used the kitchen late at night I heard a child crying, which I felt bad about. I think if there had been a door or something, we might have been able to avoid having to worry about each other.
NNiagacityThe place is great. However the downside is the there is only 1 bathroom. If you stay at the place in a group, then showering will take ages as you hv to share the 1 bathroom. It would also be good to have a toilet bidet.
