The Space:
Okawa Bay Waterfront is a substantial home right on the shore of Lake Rotoiti, with sweeping lawns that run down to your own private jetty. It's a rare absolute-lakefront setting - swim off the jetty, cast a line for trout, or launch a kayak straight from the lawn.
Inside, the open-plan kitchen has a stone benchtop, a four-seater breakfast bar, a wall oven and a gas hob, and it flows through to a casual lounge with a wood-burner and TV. There's a separate formal dining room that seats eight, with lake views, and downstairs you'll find a games room with a full-size pool table and bar seating - a great spot for the group of an evening.
The four bedrooms sleep up to 12: a king master, a second king, and two queen rooms, plus two sofa beds in the lounge for extra guests. Two full bathrooms serve the home. Outside, wide lawns, a covered alfresco area with a table, multiple deck zones and an ornamental pond all look out over the water, and there's off-street parking for several vehicles.

Guest Access:
You'll have the whole home and grounds to yourselves - all four bedrooms, both bathrooms, the kitchen and living areas, the formal dining room, the downstairs games room, and the lawns and decks down to the lake. The jetty is yours to use - swim, fish, or tie up a boat if you bring one (no boat or watercraft is supplied with the home). There's off-street parking for several vehicles.
The Neighborhood:
Okawa Bay is a sheltered, family-friendly bay on Lake Rotoiti, known for calm swimming, kayaking and trout fishing, with native bush around and a quiet, natural feel. Hells Gate, Rotorua's dramatic geothermal reserve and mud spa, is just up the road. The Okawa Bay Resort café and a public boat ramp are a short drive away, and the Manupirua hot pools - reachable only by boat - sit across the lake. It's a peaceful lakeside setting, yet central Rotorua and its restaurants, shops and attractions are under 20 minutes away.
Getting Around:
A car is essential for getting here and exploring. The property is around 19 minutes' drive from central Rotorua, 6 minutes to Hells Gate, and roughly 7 minutes from Rotorua Airport. Off-street parking on-site means no shuffling vehicles during your stay.
Other Things to Note:
A few things worth knowing: this is an absolute-lakefront home, so the jetty, lawns and water are a real feature - the jetty is yours to swim, fish or tie up a boat you bring (no boat or watercraft is supplied). Two full bathrooms serve the home, so a large group will want to plan around the mornings. There's a downstairs games room with a pool table, a wood-burner for cooler evenings, and WiFi runs at a fast 437 Mbps.
