The master bedroom on the top floor is generously sized and contains a kitchenette, office desk and ensuite bathroom with corner spa bath. Also on this level is a mezzanine floor with two fold out sofa beds and the most majestic lake views.
On the main living level there are two king bedrooms, each with ensuite, and both opening out on to the elevated lake facing deck. On the lower level is an oversized open plan room with 4 single beds, a ping pong table and bifold doors which lead out to a patio and grass area. There's also a designer bathroom complete with freestanding bathtub on this lower level.
A custom built staircase will lead you from the house to the lake via a short native bush track. Down here you’ll find a grassy reserve on the waters edge. So bring the boat or jet ski, or use the kayaks provided to explore and adventure on Lake Rotoiti. A must do in the area is the Manupirua Hot Spring Pools in the middle of the lake - - accessed only by boat or water taxi.
For those needing to stay connected we have WIFI, Alexa, and multiple large screen smart TV’s. The kitchen is well equipped with quality appliances and there's even a basketball hoop in the front yard. For warmth in winter we have a wood burning fireplace in the living room, two heat pumps, several portable heaters, and extra blankets.
