Leonie and Paul were perfect hosts. The house is beautiful and full of character. Set just on the edge of Rotorua in a quiet area - 30 min nice walk into town (see the free hot mud pits on the way!). Lovely garden, good breakfast. Nice bedroom with all facilities and large comfortable bed. On our second night Leonie took... More

My husband and I stayed 6 nights here and loved it. We wanted someplace quiet and this was perfect. Just a block or so from the redwood forest, and though close to the little airport we never heard a plane, and saw one only once. It is a suburban home but with their lovely gardens all you see is lush... More

We too got this B&B tip from "Charming B&B's of New Zealand". We were most pleased with all the B&B's we stayed at that were listed on that website. Aroden was a nice home with a lovely enclosed eating area overlooking the garden. Our room was plenty big and the bed was comfortable. We had our own large, comfortable and... More

Paul and Leonie have a house full of character and a marvelous conservatory where delicous breakfast of fresh fruit, muffins and cooked dishes are served. It overlooks the garden and spa pool which is indeed a treat on a cold winter afternoon. We so enjoyed our interaction and conversations with our hosts and excellent tips on outings and entertainments in... More

There is a very big guest lounge where you can relax in the evening (help yourself to hot drinks from the kitchen). Breakfast is served in... More
