Staying the BB@Redwoods was such a nice experience. Vivien was an excellent host who gave us useful advice for sightseeing around Rotorua and basically made our stay very homely. The accomodation had great ambience; pleasant and tranquil. Also, having the Redwoods right next door was a huge plus. Definitely recommended for those looking for a peaceful escape. More

Vivian is a very friendly and helpful host, with many reliable suggestions and advice about what to do and where to go. Our bedroom was small, very clean and comfortable, with our own private deck. The shared living/dining area was very comfortable, and Vivian facilitated our getting very good take-out food, and provided dishes etc. so we could eat on... More

Really me Njoyed our stay at this location. Vivien was great and learned what guest probably wanted to do without asking. Only minor thing was that we wished there was more tv channels to watch but since we are just getting here this might be the norm. Defiantly recommend! More

Thanks for your recent review. We've actually recently purchased 2 new TVs and are awaiting delivery. They have digital receivers and will be able to receive more channels. However, most of our B&B guests rarely seem to watch TV and prefer to make full use of our complimentary wireless Internet, as you did too using our laptop. We were happy... More

We chose the B&B at the Redwoods from reading the Trip Advisor reviews and we were not disappointed. The room was spacious and very clean, in a separate wing of the house. Guests also have a lounge area, with tea/coffee, TV and books, and is also where breakfast is served. The house is set back from the road so there... More

If we make it to NZ again, we will gladly stay there again! We could have easily spent a day just retreating at our B&B (maybe sit out some rain) but there is so much to see and do in and around Roturua. Our room easily matched and in many aspects exceeded hotel standards. Our host, Vivian, was very helpful... More

we came to Rotorua the night of the rugby finals. At about the time everyone had already gathered for the party. The "who are you" we were greeted with when ringing the bell not only got us an absolutely incredible room but also an invitation to the finals night including friends, neighbours, food and an explanation to the rugby rules....

My fiancé and I stayed for three nights and had a fantastic time at Vivien and Pete's BnB. Vivien was an invaluable source of information for everything. She basically became our "tour operator" and helped us with everything - restaurants, tours, excursions, etc. If we ever come back to Rotorua we will 100 percent stay at their place again. More

Great location for exploring the area. Vivien is a great hostess, really acomodating and a great source of insideinformation to the area. The rooms are great and the breakfast sets you up for the day especially the pancakes. And she knows how to fills up a teenage boy (and girls). You are right next to the redwood forest which is...

Vivien was a great host and we couldn't have asked for more comfortable rooms. This was our first BandB experience in NZ and it really set high standards for the remaining part of our stay. The rooms were modern with heaters and an attached bath, and very very clean. Our host was super helpful, kind and welcoming. She was very... More
