The Lookout | Stunning Rotorua Views with Spa Pool

Summary:
The Lookout is a stylish and modern holiday home, set on an elevated site that offers incredible panoramic views of Rotorua. This private location is surrounded by grazing land with small enclaves of native bush and guests can take a walk up the hill behind the house to meet the neighbours - a group of friendly alpacas. Soak up the stunning atmosphere with the open plan design leading out to the deck and spa pool.

This holiday home offers a comfortable layout, featuring three bedrooms and one full bathroom, plus a second toilet for added convenience. The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. The master bedroom and living spaces boast breathtaking views of Rotorua city and the shimmering Lake Rotorua, offering an enchanting vista day and night. Bedroom two is furnished with a queen-size bed, while bedroom three provides flexible sleeping arrangements with a double bed and a single bed.
