Wai Ora Lakeside Spa Resort

Wai Ora Lakeside Spa Resort

8/10 Good
"Staff is amazing as they do ever. If something needs fixing just ask them. The grounds could use some manicuring and trimming. Door stops are a trip hazard. Location is not in town but on the lake. It is quiet and you can hear the birds in the morning."
