Premium location

We thought this location was tops. Walkable distance along the lakeside to town. Close to boat ramp and to the sailing club restaurant & bar. House lovely and warm even for a wintery retreat. We definitely will be back to stay.

Convenient Taupo Stay

This is a very convenient and lovely place to stay. House is exactly as described and the location is lovely as it’s right on the lake. It’s on the main road so easy to get to, but the property is set well back so there is zero noise. Close to get to all areas of Taupo, and a new supermarket nearby. The sunsets were beautiful. Really enjoyed the place and would love to stay again if we are going back down there.
