The house was easy to find as it was so distinctive, hard to miss with the pinkness of it. The art work on the walls was lovley as well as the story around the house. The beds were comfy and the house was warm. Thanks for a lovely nights sleep

I love that this property feels like im visiting my Gran. Very comfortable and homey. Alby is a great host and very interesting to chat with him about Rotorua history. The location is perfect being less than an hour to Hobbiton, Rotorua and Taupo

The pink house was an ideal place to stay for me and my family whilst we attended a wedding close to Tokoroa. The property is ideal for families. The kitchen is well equipped and the property is spacious. In an ideal world there would be a separate toilet and one of the bedrooms had a bunk rather than free standing bed but everyone seemed to find the accommodation to be very comfortable

Another great stay at the Pink House!

We have been staying at the Pink House regularly as we are helping a friend renovate a house. Alby is always extremely helpful, the house is spotlessly clean, very well equipped and has comfortable beds with lovely linen. We have stayed in many holiday houses and this is one of our favourites. Highly recommend.

Another awesome stay at the Pink House

Our 2nd stay at the Pink House and just as great as the first! The house has everything we need, is warm and well equipped. We love that we can come home from a day of helping renovate our friends house, have an awesome hot shower (unlimited hot water) and totally relax in peace and quiet. We have just booked for another 4 day weekend in a couple of weeks. Highly recommend. Thanks Alby, a great host!

Warm and Welcoming

It was lovely and homely. Access instructions easy to follow. After a tiring long drive we arrived late at night with the cottage all warmed up on our arrival. Very welcoming and relaxed. Had a great sleep in a cosy comfortable bed, just what was needed for the next part of our journey south. Had everything we needed and was so clean. Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality.

Lovely home away from home

This was a wonderful place to stay. We had four nights here. The beds are super comfortable. It's cosy and a bit dated but it is still original and lovingly decorated by the hosts departed mum which ads so much to its charm. The kitchen is very well equipt well laid out. The excisting washing maschine and dryer have a very large capacity and are so convinient. The host lives next door and is very helpful and genuinely nice. So lovely chating to him. After a long day out and about our kids enjoyed the big TV with netflix and the comfortable lounch chairs. Everything is spotless and spacious but still cosy. It really feels like you are staying for a weekend at Nana's. It is very centraly located, an hour from Rotorua (so no smell!), about an 11/2h from Lake Taupo, Hobbiton and Waitomo each. It was a great base for our daytrips. We would stay here again and highly recommend it for families or groups as there is enough space for 5 people Thank you

Clean, tidy, homely, spacious and accommodating for the time we stayed at the pink house. Much appreciation to Alby who made our stay simple and easy while we were able to achieve a calming and relaxing space while dealing with family matters.
