On The Point Lake Rotorua

Beautiful space, but limited menu This place in Rotorua is visually stunning; cozy yet elegant, with a gorgeous fireplace, historical art, and a peaceful lake view. It’s the kind of setting that’s perfect for a quiet date or a special occasion. I’d definitely be back. The menu, however, felt quite limited. They only had salmon, steak, and a Caesar salad. I tried the salmon, the fish was nicely cooked and the skin was crispy, but the caviar that came with it had no taste at all. The tuile on the plate also looked nice but didn’t really have a flavour. Dessert was more promising, lemon tart stood out. My only suggestion would be to replace the orange jelly with satsuma jelly, as the bitterness from the orange threw off the balance. A tangier satsuma would’ve added the sweet-sour punch the dish needed. This place shines in atmosphere, but the food, especially given the limited options, could use a bit more depth and refinement.

Truly a heavenly spot to stay. We were very happy to have 4 nights here and 2 dinners. The service and food are first rate. Enjoyed feeding carrots to the miniature horses and donkeys. Loved seeing all the ducks on the lake. Spectacular views everywhere. On a blustery rainy day, it was a perfect room to stay warm and cozy by the fire.

This was such a special place to stay and one that I will remember for years to come. The location is incredible. Right in the lake. I adored the style, the views were breathtaking taking. I loved walking on the grounds and feeding the animals. The staff were so friendly. Breakfast delicious. It was a real treat to stay there with my parents who just adored it also. Thank you for helping making unforgettable memories
