Welcome to Rotorua
Come share our stunning geothermal landscapes, sparkling lakes and beautiful forests.
While we are honoured to enjoy such an incredible backyard, we're proud to say Rotorua is also a place where people live an enviable lifestyle, open up businesses, raise families, and support each other. Known for our community spirit and manaakitanga, we welcome you to our home. Nau mai, haere mai!
