Okay, so you may have a hard time finding a place to get some shut-eye in the centre of Waimangu, but Rotorua is just 20 kilometres away and has some terrific options. For elegant rooms with all the little luxuries, try the Treetops Lodge & Estate (351 Kearoa Road, RD1) or the Tihi Retreat (24 Henare Place). The Rotorua Citizens Club (1146 Rangiuru Street) and the Rock Solid Backpackers Rotorua (1140 Hinemoa Street) are ideal options for those who'd rather spend their money on a few rounds in the local bar or a delicious dinner out.
If you're landing at Rotorua Regional Airport, check out the deals at Budget or Europcar. No need to muck about with airport shuttles or overpriced taxis — these outlets are just a short walk from the arrivals gate.
Put your out-of-office reply on, say bye-bye to your boss and don't look back. It's time to head to Waimangu. But first things first, let's get to know some basics.
It won't take too long to arrive at Waimangu from a few major nearby cities. It's a short drive of 20 kilometres to the southeast from Rotorua and 35 kilometres to the southwest from Kawerau.
