Koura Lodge

Jump to:

Koura Lodge sits on the edge of Lake Rotorua and enjoys stunning views from its ten well-appointed rooms. Recently refurbished, the European-influenced building has contemporary, light rooms and excellent en suite facilities. There is a separate guest area with internet access and tea and coffee making facilities, and breakfast is served in the impressive dining room with views down the gardens to the lake.

On the water's edge at the end of the garden is a hot tub where guests can relax at the end of a busy day and enjoy the stunning lake views. Seaplanes and boats can collect you from the lodge jetty for excursions, otherwise it is just a few minutes' drive to central Rotorua and all the attractions of the thermal plateau.
