Relax & Unwind
Rotorua is one of the unique locations in NZ to visit, renowned for its geothermal spring, beautiful lakes, and green forests. Explore the wonders of Rotorua’s most active geothermal reserve and NZ’s only mud spa, Hell’s Gate. Spend your afternoon at the Polynesian Spa Rotorua and relax your muscles in the mineral-rich geothermal hot waters. We highly recommend our guests who are travelling on a short trip take the opportunity to soak in our spa without leaving our Lake Rotorua hotel. We also have an outdoor swimming pool and a sauna onsite!
Māori Culture & History
Rotorua is the best place in NZ to start learning about the history and culture of the indigenous Māori people. Learn about the beautiful Pounamu jewellery, enter the world of Mitai for an authentic introduction to Māori culture, wander through the geothermal trails at Whakarewarewa to check out the mud pools, geysers and native manuka bushlands and enjoy the legendary manaakitanga (hospitality) the Whakarewarewa Village has to offer. Book your Rotorua accommodation with us now and get ready to experience the Māori culture.
Hike or Bike a Trail
The real beauty of Rotorua is found off-grid in the Whakarewarewa (Redwood) Forest, where you can bike or walk along the forest trails. If you aren’t afraid of heights, the Redwoods Treewalk experience is a must-do activity for you. Foris Eco-Tours offer a 7-hour Whirinaki Rainforest guided tour, taking you through 500-year-old ancient trees standing 60m high with rare birds singing above your head. Rest up in one of the best hotels in Rotorua because you’ve got so many trails and forests to hike in the morning.
Bring the Family and Kids
Bringing kids along? Take the little ones to feed the sheep, cattle, deer, llamas, alpaca and all the farm animals at Rotorua Heritage Farm. Get lost in the 1.4km maze at aMAZEme, race with your family on the world-famous Luge, and zig-zag your way down the hill in the giant inflatable ZORB. After a long day, your little ones will sleep like a baby, so book one of the best hotels in Lake Rotorua, VR Rotorua Lake Resort, near these amazing family activities.
Have Fun All-Year-Round
To celebrate the new year, make sure you’re in town in December for the Glo Rotorua. Locals bring their families to enjoy the music, local performances, movies and fireworks on the Lakefront and Village Green. If you’re planning to get active, then the Rotorua Bike Festival in October is not to be missed. Whether you’re a beginner or an extreme downhiller, there’re plenty of activities, workshops and competitions to suit all levels and ages.
We think that with so much to do, you’ll need to spend a long weekend or come back multiple times to enjoy all the fun at Rotorua. If you’re nodding in agreement, you’ll want to book your accommodation on Rotorua Lakes with us at least once in October and once again in December!
No Kiwi trip is complete without a beer or wine at the pub, and Rotorua is no exception. The famous Eat Streat is packed with the best craft beers, wines, and delicious Rotorua food. If you’re an early bed person or want to sleep in the quieter part of town, you don’t have to wander very far to stay in our Rotorua lakeside accommodation, VR Rotorua Lake Resort.
