Nice little getaway and easy walking distance to the shops and lake.
Space and easy access

It was a very minute booking to break up the trip home for the kids. No hassle with check in and everything was there for an easy and comfortable stay before leaving early to drive home the next morning.
Location was great nice & quiet. Home was lovely and warm upon arrival, such a lovely space to spend with my little family for Christmas. The beds were amazingly comfortable the entire home clean and spacious. And the spa was amazing to relax in the evenings and early mornings. Absolutely loved our stay
There was absolutely nothing we did not enjoy. Throughly loved our stay
Douche en bed waren goed
Kussens waren muf, niet schoon, keuken haperde aan alle kanten. Is veel donkerder dan op de foto’s zichtbaar. Ik had dit verblijf vooral gekozen omdat op de foto’s een koffiezetapparaat stond, maar dat bleek er niet (meer) te zijn. Huis staat te koop.
The house is located in a very quiet area, and the apartment looks modern and cozy. Check-in was easy and straightforward, and it’s very convenient that you can park your car right next to the house.
It was mostly clean, although the kitchen was not perfect. There was also food left from previous guests, including cooked food in the freezer. Guests are advised to clean their feet before entering the hot tub; however, there was some kind of dust at the bottom. There were no restaurants open in the afternoon or evening in town. Overall, it felt too expensive for what it offered
Lovely cabin, well equipped & nicely decorated. Really warm & comfy beds
My daughter cut her foot on the raised metal edge on the living room floor
Warm & cosy when we arrived...love love the beds for comfort. love love the shower pressure. Had everything we needed.
The bedroom TV is being used outside in the shed (laundry room) by? Wifi wasn't available until the next morning, so no smart TV for the 1st night. Not sure the price per night was justified, however, the property is on the market. Loads of dog crap, however, the section is open
The location was awesome, clean home, lovely communication, directions, the hot tub Defo the highlight on a Misty Morn.
It would be nice to have shelves or drawers in rooms to put clothes or items on. I would have loved a full length mirror eg behind wardrobe door.
The space was perfect for us. The natural materials made the home feel calm and serene. The home is stunning, from the appliances to the aesthetically designed kitchen, living area, and bathroom. The home had everything we needed, plus more. There were games for the kids to use which was great for nighttime. The bedrooms were beautifully dressed and comfy. The bonus of having a TV in the main bedroom was a treat!
Due to the drop in temperature overnight, the deck was slippery and unfortunately, my daughter slipped while walking to the spa. We will be mindful of this for our next stay
Location for our needs, and the family-sized kitchen & appliances
Love that it had everything you needed and also the location was lovely and quiet
Nothing too major but we did run out of toilet paper so we just bought more. And didn't like that the kitchen Windows had no curtains but nothing major 😀
Stylish, comfy house, very warm and handy location to the lake.
Cosy, quiet place, beds were super comfy! Also loved the giant ice balls.
All the food in the cupboard was years out of date & should be removed. Confusing comms about the rubbish. We did what the latest email from the host said but the welcome book said to take it with you or leave out if a Weds. Other than that, it was perfect for what we needed. I would recommend.
Clean and modern
Very good location, property great, very nice
Location was excellent being equidistant from Waitomo Caves, Hobbiton and Rotorua. Would thoroughly recommend this home for hitting the tourist hot spots in the region.
There was no lock on the bathroom door.
Easy to find, clean, everything we needed in house, great beds, easy to walk to shops and lake. Quite , had a iron and ironing board. Good wifi.
Was nothing we didn't like, was good all round.
Nicely appointed interior design.
Not fenced off / completed as had a toddler . No lock on bathroom door Outside furniture rusty and cobwebs
Well equipped, great shower and hot tub. Very comfortable. Loved the kitchen and fridge
Maybe if the kitchen window could have a blind to stop the light coming in at night when we slept with the bedroom doors open for the AC.
Presentation
House had everything you needed. Great beds, shower and entertainment options.
House interior was very dark and at times difficult to see. No inside dinner table, luckily the weather was great so we could eat outside. Some building materials around the yard.
It was so cute and comfy. The beds were made up beautifully and super comfortable. Decor rustic industrial meets cosy cute. Our family of four loved it.
A blind for the kitchen window is my only suggestion for improvement.
I enjoyed my whole experience of staying at Mango Magic. Definitely enjoyed how quiet the area is and highly liked the location of the house. You could still feel the heat from during the day after the sun had gone down. Shower pressure was heaven and the breeze through out the house is lovely on hot days.
Not knowing how to work the washing machine 🤣 and the long wait for the dryer 🙄 might need to install a clothes line near the hot tub for clothes and towels being used there.
Fantastic little place in the perfect location for the Mangakino Lake Hop. Beds were comfortable, spa pool was nice and hot, kitchen and bathroom nice and clean, had two large smart TVs, pet friendly.
The only downside was there was no fully fenced area to let the dogs out without having them on leads. Otherwise this place was great.
Very modern and warm property with a lot of mod cons. The spa was great and a nice deck to enjoy accessed from the kitchen. 2 huge smart TVs were great, and the WiFi was very fast, allowing us to work from the property with no issues. Was also great to have access to a garage to store our bikes. Very close to the Waikato River Trail for those that are cycling.
A blind or curtain on the kitchen window would be a great addition, to add a bit of privacy when heading from the shower to the bedroom areas. The lock box was in a really awkward position to access in the wet and dark.
Very modern and cosy.
Location. Easy parking. Comfortable bed. Great spa pool. Interesting decor. Fabulous shower.
Sparse selection of kitchen equipment including dishwasher tabs and liquid... No coffee plunger or microwave friendly cups.
A beautiful little cottage, nice and clean. All necessities provided, Loved the rustic vibe. The bathroom is 🫶🏼 and the t,v in the room just topped off the whole relaxation.
No comment
Very warm, cozy and clean would definitely recommend to my friends and family
The house is beautiful! Everything you need for a quiet weekend away. Loved the spa, the kitchen, and the beds are super comfy! We didn't want to leave and next time we'll be back with the family.
Only tiny thing is we kept kicking our toes on the ledge leaving the first bedroom. It really hurt! Other than that though - the place is awesome.
Clean, Beautiful new house with modern fixtures and fittings. Very cosy. Very comfortable beds and warm inside on a chilly day. Netflix to use as well as a spa. Loved everything about this property and will definitely be back!!
Loved everything.
New, warm and the beds we so comfy.Laundry was handy as we overnight on bike tour.
All good
Great house been very creative with some different building materials
Was very cozy and clean!
The wifi didn’t work. so we have no access to the tvs as they needed internet to work. Booked a Bach so we were in a home away from home but didn’t have full facilities
Clear communication to access property accomodating an earlier arrival. Welcome note with cookies to have with normal hot drink options. Modern interior decor big kitchen with a big fridge multiple power outlets including usb charge points. Bigc comfortable beds an extra tv in one bedroom. Big modern bathroom. Informative about activities in the area and options for dining in plus local shops. Good location close to amenities.
Not clean toilet hadn’t been cleaned particularly the toilet lid and seat. Couldn’t use spa there was debris and bugs in it. Cobwebs in bedroom corners dead bugs on bedroom floor. Bedroom cupboard had no handle the other bedroom cupboard no handle however you could open it yet couldn’t use it as it had cobwebs throughout.
