    Comfortable open-plan living and dining flow off a fully equipped kitchen, with plenty of room for the whole group to gather at the end of the day.



    - OUTDOOR AREA & SWIM SPA -

    The star out the back is the huge swim spa - big enough to swim against the jets or spread out and soak, and a real treat after a day in the forest or out at the lakes. A sunny deck runs off the house, made for BBQs and al fresco meals, with a lawn and patio to enjoy.



    - LAUNDRY & PARKING -

    Laundry facilities with a washing machine and dryer. A single garage with high ceilings for secure parking, bikes and gear, plus free parking on the driveway and street.



    Guest Access:

    You'll have the whole house to yourselves - all five bedrooms, the bathroom, the kitchen and dining, the living areas, the laundry, the garage and the outdoor spaces including the swim spa and deck. Free parking is on the driveway and street.



    The Neighborhood:

    Epic Escape sits in leafy, family-friendly Lynmore on the eastern edge of Rotorua, one of the city's most sought-after suburbs for its position right beside the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest. The forest's walking tracks and world-class mountain bike trails are just two minutes away, and Tarawera Road - the street you're on - runs straight out to the beautiful Blue and Green Lakes (Tikitapu and Rotokakahi), about five minutes on for a swim, a paddle or a lakeside walk. Te Puia's geysers and living Maori village are six minutes the other way, with the lakefront hot pools at Polynesian Spa and Wai Ariki Spa and the cafes and restaurants of central Rotorua about eight. Skyline's gondola and luge, Zorb and Canopy Tours are over on the western side of town, around fifteen minutes away.



    Getting Around:

    A car is recommended, with a single garage plus free driveway and street parking. The Redwoods forest is a two-minute drive - and an easy walk or ride for the active - the Blue and Green Lakes five minutes along Tarawera Road, and Te Puia six. Central Rotorua, the lakefront hot pools at Polynesian Spa and Wai Ariki Spa, and Rotorua Airport are all around eight minutes, with Skyline, Zorb and Canopy Tours roughly fifteen on the western side of town.



    Other Things to Note:

    The house has one full bathroom. The swim spa is a great feature - please supervise children at all times, and note the jets can be strong when both sets are running. WIFI runs at around 247 Mbps.

Wifi was nothing but trouble , was up to me to diagnose problem with rebooting router all the time. Couldn’t even watch tv with out the circle of doom coming up. Kitchen had crap knifes ( blunt serrated ones) you had to saw through potatoes, can opener that was not for purpose, definitely not well setup for cooking for a house of this size. Spa was great however and the beds were comfy. I’d suggest taking your own knifes and basic cooking needs like standard table salt to make a meal.
