The adjoining townhouse at the rear - The Sanctuary - is a separate home that can also be booked, handy if you've got a larger group.
The Neighborhood:
Serenity on Sophia sits in Glenholme, a quiet, tree-lined residential suburb just south of central Rotorua - a peaceful spot that's also remarkably central. Te Puia and the Whakarewarewa geothermal area are only a couple of minutes away, the city centre and Polynesian Spa around 5 to 6 minutes, and the Redwoods about 8. It's an easy, comfortable base with restaurants, cafés and shops all close by.
Getting Around:
Most of Rotorua is within about 10 minutes. By car, Te Puia is just 2 minutes away, the city centre around 5, Polynesian Spa about 6, the Redwoods roughly 8, and Rotorua Airport and Skyline about 12 to 13. There's free parking in the garage and on the street.
Other Things to Note:
The private spa pool and a Weber BBQ sit off the deck, alongside the garden and entertaining area. With three king bedrooms, a home office and fast 676 Mbps WiFi, it's well set up for families or anyone mixing a getaway with a bit of remote work. The adjoining townhouse at the rear - The Sanctuary - is a separate home that can also be booked, handy if you've got a larger group.
