Farmstay vacation rentals in Rotorua District

The photos don’t do this place justice! What a beautiful property, kind people, and lovely company. My daughter had the best time playing with other kids and we would absolutely love to return! Thank you

A fantastic experience! The alpacas were delightful (especially with the provided snacks!), and the serene setting made it a perfect getaway. The host’s local tips were an added bonus. Would definitely stay again!

Such a great property for a large family to enjoy the simple things. Photos are accurate and place is exactly as described. The reserve next door makes you feel like you have an even larger backyard. Great walks near by, easy access to lake a short walk or 2 minute drive away. Friendly and responsive hosts. Our 2nd time here and will visit again.

We used Joss and Wayne's place for a team building retreat. It was perfect. Plenty of bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen for our self-catering, beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Joss and Wayne were great hosts - showed us where everything was and then left us to it. As well as the great kitchen, there was also a lovely outside area with a BBQ for relaxing at night. Great venue. Would highly recommend.

Peter's place is a rare find. Close to the hot spring, 30 min drive from Rotorua town centre. It is a working farm with horses, chicken etc. on site. It is such a special experience when you lift up your head in the room and see a horse staring at you through the window. We had great time there.

It was good to visit there The view overlooking rotorua lake and city is great I was worried about entering there but it was easy to go uphill by SUV I wanted to go to farm but I had no time

What a great place! Cathy and Bob are beautiful people and the property is so well organized and clean. Amazing children facilities as well. Only downside was the shower which was way too small for us (1.80 and 2m length).

We loved our stay! A beautiful and peaceful property. It was cozy and comfortable, and felt just like home for our three night stay. We appreciated, and enjoyed the delicious breakfast items. Location was great for everything we got to in Rotorua. We had a lot of rain during our stay, but still savoured every second of the spectacular view from the window. Would happily stay again!!

We had a great stay at Sonia's place. The house was comfortable and clean, and walking distance to Lake Rotoiti. We enjoyed all the animals, a highlight was collecting a couple eggs from the coop. Thanks for having us, will defo stay again.

It was a unique and amazing experience to live amongst and connect with nature. Bella, Feta and Gregory were so friendly and adorable. We also got to see the glow worms which was a wonderful experience. Tabea is a kind and friendly host and went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable. Thank you Tabea :)

Very beautiful view. A bit hard to walk to the pod, because the path is steep at some points, but definitely worth it. Had an amazing stay

Leigh and David’s place is absolutely stunning. They were so helpful with checking us in and provided all the amenities anyone could need plus more! The place is situated in a beautiful spot not too far from the centre of Rotorua and the breakfast in the morning was top tier. Amazing spot would recommend to everyone!

Was a perfect escape from reality! Wish we could have stayed longer - nect time we will! Lovely peaceful haven - with everything we needed - cosy and comfortable. Thanks Joss & Wayne - hopefully we will get the opportunity to visit again soon!

A hidden gem in Rotorua, would definitely stay again. A big, private deck looking out over rolling farmland with glimpses of lake Rotorua in the distance. A big, claw foot bath on the deck for indulgence. A roaring fireplace inside for winter, and a very good heat pump otherwise. A spacious, attractive place with a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice linen and gets lots of natural light from full height windows. Thanks so much for an amazing stay!

My husband and I had a fantastic stay, was nice and relaxing just what we needed. absolutely loved being able to bring our dog on our holiday which made it extra special. Thank you 😊

Kerris and Chris are wonderful hosts, very hospitable and friendly and made us feel very welcomed in their home, it really felt like a home away from home. The continental breakfast each morning was delicious. The place is easily accessible and located in convenient location close to town and the other activity's we needed to access during our stay. Her facility's are as described, clean, very well maintained and offers plenty to do if staying around the property, easily accommodated our extra luggage (mountain bikes) during our stay . Will defiantly be returning on our annual trip back to Rotorua, whether staying in the main house or one of the other accommodation options they have available.

We were very happy to spend the last 4 nights of our NZ trip at Toka Ridge 4. The property was pristine with beautiful views of the lake. It was a quiet area that felt a little remote, but the shops, restaurants and bustle of Roturua were just 15-20 mins away. Two easy Alltrails walks were within walking distance of the property. The Hamurana Lakefront Reserve Walkway (offering great views of the lake) began just down the road and, near its end, the Hamurana Springs Loop Walkway (a lovely/surprising mix of redwoods and cold springs with lots of ducks) began across the street. A few mosquitos did find us while visiting the jacuzzi just after dusk, but did not bother us during the day. The consensus of our group was that Toka 4 was the nicest Airbnb of our 5+ week NZ stay. Thank you, Liam/Team!

Corrine was an amazing hosts, gave us privacy whilst making sure we had fun at the cabin! We got to feed the cows which was so fun! The beds were very comfortable and warm. Overall 10 out of 10 experience!

The home is spacious but you do not feel disconnected. Beautiful surroundings and well equipt kitchen. The indoor outdoor flow gave as an additional seating area for dinners etc. Fabulous facilities could not think of anything else that would be needed there. Would highly recommend The Red Barn.

Kid friendly and relaxing place to stay with family and friends. We love it there.

We had a lovely stay! The house is beautiful, spacious, and just like the pictures. It felt cozy and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The host was really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We had a small issue with the gas, and although we couldn’t reach them by phone, they were very responsive through the Airbnb app. Maybe having quicker phone support would be a nice improvement, but honestly, everything else was great. They even helped us recover something we had forgotten at the house, which we really appreciated. Overall, a wonderful experience and we’d happily stay again!

Rebecca and Rob are wonderful hosts! We had an amazing stay! We stayed a total of 17 nights and were glad to have a comfortable place with everything we needed, while we explored the surrounding towns and landscape. And to stay in and relax if we needed a chill day. When we were short of ideas of where to drive next, Rebecca had some wonderful suggestions.

Tammy was invaluable every step of the way. The house is warm, friendly, and super clean. The wood was ready in the fireplace, with a basket full next to it. The beds were excellent, and the kitchen was perfect. Highly recommended!
