Great place, great location!

An excellent location near lake. Close to town, but far enough out to have peace, especially when busy with school holidays. Fireplace works well and plenty of games available, including Finksa, which my son and I really enjoyed playing on the back lawn. Can recommend.

We had a lovely stay. The house was spacious and comfortable and walking distance to the lake for a swim and a playground at the reserve. The property is in a nice quiet area and is close enough to bike into the town centre. The property manager was very friendly and accommodating plus she was quick to respond to any messages. I highly recommend staying here and will stay here again in the future.

Fantastic place

We had the best fun filled family Xmas at this place. It was a perfect spot with 2 living areas, great outdoor spaces and we loved all the games on offer. Lots of laughs were had playing pool, jenga, swingball and much more. The 3 cousins (16, 12 and 4) also spent hours playing with the LEGO in the cupboard, it was a definite hit! It was also great having the lake only a short walk away.

Beautiful, clean, spacious home in lovely neighborhood

It was a pleasure to work with the host throughout the booking and prior to our stay. She was very helpful. Directions were very clear and accurate. Upon arrival we found a generous and thoughtful welcome basket. The home was very clean, lots of room for me and my two older daughters. Great location for the 70.3 IronMan World Championships in Taupo. Short walk to beautiful lake and path. Safe neighborhood. Can bike into town or easy car ride about 10 minutes. No issues parking in town. Truly enjoyed our one week stay, would highly recommend. Thank you for your warm welcome.

Cozy family bach

It was such a pleasure getting to stay at this family bach. It’s conveniently located, in walking distance to the lake for afternoon strolls & a short distance to central Taupō. The bach is huge, including a massive main en-suite bedroom, huge living/dining/kitchen area to hang out in, plus still a beautifully sunny, more formal lounge if you want some space to yourself. It’s really well stocked with games, DVDs & books to keep you busy. We just loved spending time by the fire as a family, relaxing & enjoying our winter getaway. Communication with Lisa was brilliant & she went the extra mile to accommodate us with our baby, organising a travel cot. Highly recommend staying here!

Taupo Beauty

Where do I begin... Such a beautiful modern spacious home, stunningly decorated and so warm and cozy, fully equipped with everything you need and more. Close to the lake with beautiful views from the upper level. Room for kids to run around outside and have their own space inside. The pool table was such an added bonus and the games cupboard an amazing addition. I could go on for days about each little part of this property as it truely is something special. We loved every minute of our stay and felt completely at home, we can’t wait to come back again. Thanks so much everything.
