Guest reviews for VR Rotorua Lake Resort

5 out of 5

Fantastic location right on Lake Rotoiti/Mourea in the inlet. Peaceful, lovely view of the lake from my ground floor, corner room. Comfy bed, warm and snug room with bath that has a view to the lake through the wooden shutters between the sleeping area and bathroom. The noise from the fridge was quite loud, so I switched it off at night - peace! Overall, gorgeous place to stay. So gorgeous that I extended my stay to 5 nights.

Bathroom door didn’t fully close, shower soap holder broken, shower head had a leak which spat towards the ceiling creating a cold drip while showering. Bathroom extraction randomly started a few times creating a blender like sound in our room. Booked king suite but got 2 single beds pushed together. We didn’t want our room cleaned so we didn’t hang the sign on our door but when we came back during the day we were greeted by a cleaner in our room. Hallways had dead bugs along the trim work. Despite the bad, Spa and pool area was worth it, wasn’t a horrible stay but could benefit from more attention to detail.

Location is beautiful. Lake view. Quiet although it’s situated close to a main road. Easy drive to Rotorua. I’ve stayed here many times and keep coming back.

Nice quiet location with great outlook over the lake. My room was a bit beat up with broken bathroom tiles, missing soap dish in shower and damaged hinges in a door. Maintenance definitely needs to be looked at.
