Property Owners Reviews

We rented our family home through Tarawera Property Management and were extremely impressed from start to finish. Dave and Angela had great communication and made the whole process really easy. The guests were respectful during the stay and the house was spotless on our return. What we received from the rental more than paid for our holiday which was a great result. I would not hesitate to recommend these guys or to use them again in the future. Dane Stewart - Lake Tarawera
