About this Holiday House

The Cheeky Tui holiday home is great for families. Tucked away in a sheltered, peaceful & year round sunny spot this fully self-contained 3 brm house, (sleeps up to 8 people), is located right next to a large reserve & playground at the far end of Spencer Road. Set in a relaxed garden setting & close to a boat ramp, a great swimming beach and excellent fishing locations. Two bedrooms have a king bed each which can also be split into two single beds, the 3rd bedroom has two sets of bunks (sleeping 4) Dog friendly – with a large grassy, fully fenced section. The house has a Kent fire & heat pump for winter so is lovely & warm year-round.

Amy Blakesley
Our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cheeky Tui. The location is absolutely beautiful and although we were only there for 2 nights we made the most of the local area. Lots of lovely walks, swimming at the gorgeous little swimming spot at Cliff Road and we all enjoyed using the kayaks. Driving to and from Rotorua was a breeze and we loved being based at such a tranquil spot. It was nice having no internet but the teens did pop over to the reserve now and then to go online. A nice to place to stay.
