The property was perfect for our group with mixed age group from 70, 50, 20s, & teenagers. Having so much to entertain the younger members - spa, pool table, swimming pool, table tennis, bbq meant we didn't have to go out to entertain younger members all day. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. All spaces had such generous appliances. Directly across the road from the airport for those flying in and out of there. If looking for a property in Rotorua you must stay here! I note they can lock doors off to make smaller spaces for smaller groups but we had whole property for large group & we loved it. Beautiful views out to the lake & was cool to watch planes coming in & out of the tarmac. Although on highway & across from airport, house well soundproofed so noise not an issue.

    Family of 9 staying at Kawaha on the lake property, very cosy with the timber feel throughout the house view to die for of the lake and surrounding mountains and watching the sunrise every morning like a living postcard. Would stay there again, great place to relax and have great family time playing games and movie nights with the fireplace going.

    This was our 2nd stay here as we were so happy with the lodge before. We love the quiet location. It’s very relaxing being right on the lake. Even on very cold, frosty nights, it was extremely cozy. It’s also lovely having the sauna there. The hosts Arun and Cheryl are very kind, friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to make us feel comfortable.

    The lodge is situated right on the shore of the lake, with a little private peer to bask in the natural beauty of the surroundings. What's more, there is a hot tub and a sauna on the peer, allowing for wonderful relaxation by the lakeside, especially in the evenings. The lodge itself is set up in a very cozy and warm way, making the overall stay very relaxing. Definitely worth the price.
