Enjoyed the bird life and proximity to the lake . Was an ideal location very quirky but very well designed . Also was handy location to the lakes and town .

The property was ok…not on the lake…overlooks a small parking lot to access trails and limited view of the lake. The place needs some updating…perhaps the price reflects that a bit. Appliances are old, uncomfortable couch/daybed. Had lots of dishes etc but didn’t have a can opener which we needed. The bed also had an old heating pad which started to burn the mattress while we were there!

This really is a lovely little house. So well thought out and extremely well equipped. Clean and comfortable. Be aware the stairs are very steep. Wonderful views over lake Okareka and very quiet. Lake Okareka walkway starts just over the road and heads across the wetlands on a board walk then round the lake. Rotorua is a short drive.

The tiny house is pretty cool but it was pretty gross. The house and all of the upholstery- futon, pillows, mattress, duvets, drapes- REEKED of patchouli. It was so strong that even after a few days of airing it out it was still strong. None of the windows had screens either so the offset to getting some fresh air was a bunch of bugs. There was a giant dead moth under the pillow on the bed, spiderwebs everywhere, and a few of the window coverings were broken. The shower drain was also broken. This place needs a deep clean and some maintenance.We ended up both sleeping on the futon and just spent as much time away from it as possible. I asked the property manager to drop off new linens and they told me there were extras in the downstairs bedroom (which we didn’t have access to) and I mentioned that and then they ghosted me. If you like patchouli and bugs…. this place is fine, but otherwise keep looking. It’s too bad because the location was rad and it was a place we were really excited about.

House was very clean, everything we needed was there. Some written tv instructions would have been handy.

Lovely & cosy tiny home with beautiful views and serene surroundings. Everything you need there. Thank you for hosting us!

The view over the lake is wonderful and the location is very peaceful. We enjoyed walking the Lake Okareka Walkway which is across the road from the tiny house- about 4km return.

We enjoyed our stay so much. It was just far enough from Rotorua but close enough to explore easily. Everything was clean and well taken care of.

Very nice vacation home. We had a lovely stay on the lake.

Nice little getaway, pretty by the lake and close to town and redwoods.

The location of Kundaniwas was ideal is so many ways. Even though it is close to the adjacent property, it is nestled in the bush so that it has a really private feel to it. The trailhead for Lake Okereka (recommended) is conveniently just across the street. It is just a few minutes from Rotorua, and its many attractions, but apart from the crowd. The house itself is tidy, clean & well laid out. I had a great stay!

Tiny house was accessible to lake and activities while being very private and hidden in the foliage. Clean, neat, modern. Enjoyed my stay!

Cute little tiny home style with stunning views

Living in a tiny house was new to us.
