🌿 A NEW CHAPTER BY THE LAKE 🌿
After months of hard work, we’re incredibly happy to finally share our newly renovated two-bedroom apartment with you.
The renovation is complete — and we’re ready to open the doors and welcome our lovely friends, families and whānau back to our little corner of Lake Rotorua. ❤️
This apartment has been refreshed with comfort, warmth and family stays in mind. A place where you can slow down, enjoy the beautiful lake views, cook a meal together, relax after a day of exploring Rotorua, and simply feel at home.
But there is another story here that means even more to us…
🍋 Our lemon tree.
Some time ago, a powerful storm struck our property and damaged our lemon tree badly. Many people might have thought it was finished.
But its roots were still alive.
So we decided to keep it.
We cared for it, protected it, and watched it slowly grow again.
Today, it is still standing. Still growing. Still producing new life.
It isn’t just a lemon tree to us.
It is a reminder.
Sometimes life knocks us down. Sometimes things don’t go according to plan. But if our roots are strong, we can keep growing.
🌱 Stay strong. Keep growing. Keep thriving.
That little lemon tree has become part of our story — just like this motel.
We are continuing to renovate, improve and grow, one room at a time, while keeping the warmth, hospitality and character that make this place special.
So finally…
🏡 Our two-bedroom apartment is ready.
The doors are open.
The lake is waiting.
And we are ready to welcome you, our friends and whānau, once again.
❤️ Come and stay. Come and relax. Come and enjoy the lake.
