We so enjoyed staying here, although the weather was variable we didn't mind, as the place was so enjoyable to stay and had such a lovely view. I would highly recommend this place for modern, comfortable and easy convenience to town.
Very nice apartment for a stay in Taupo for the family. Good location and facilities. Only negative was the bathroom fans which ran for ages after having been switched off which was not ideal at night. But even so, would stay here again

Thank you for your kind feedback. glad you have enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to hosting you again in the near future.
Perfect place for our family visit for Xmas. Ensuites for all 3 bedrooms! Little terrace and BBQ off top level living & master. Great View of Taupo park across the river. Bottom bedroom large & suitable for kids. Fantastic outdoor courtyard & gas fire! Loved sitting there at sunset with a drink. Love to return again! 🙏🙏🙏
For 4 adults attending the Wairakei School of Golf this was a perfect place to stay. One couple and 2 singles each with our own bathroom was perfect.
Plenty of space inside and although we didn't use outside it would have been a great space for pre dinner drinks and chat.
Being close to town, bars and restaurants makes this place very appealing.
Would recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in Taupo, close to the be able to relaxaction but far enough away to be away from the noise.
appealingaevenwedidn't use outside
We had a lovely stay. Property was well appointed, warm and dry. Lovely view of the river.
There was space for our whole group to hangout and have some space despite your age range. We'll be coming back.
We booked two apartments for family of 10 with two teenagers but these apartments are also well suited for kids. 3 levels with a lot of stairs, clean, tidy and all modern cons. Would definitely stay again. Easy walk to town. Thanks to owner Camille for allowing yor apartment to be enjoyed an Margeaux an Jen for making the process stress free
Great apartment with great views of river and walking distance to town. Very spacious and everything you need. We had a great time there. Only negative and only a small one was the rooms downstairs took a day to heat up. As we stayed in winter, would have been great if the heaters were put on prior to arrival, kids bunked with us on first night as took too long to heat up dowstairs.
Definitely stay again!!
This house was perfect for us. Having 3 bedrooms, all ensuite was great and so close to town. The view was amazing and the full kitchen was awesome. Thanks for having us and we will be back.
Property itself is great, the location is
fantastic with a very quick walk to town and a nice quiet location. The only somewhat negative thing was the property was a tad grubby and could possibly do with a good spring clean. Towels, linen’s and bedding though were 100% fresh and clean. Would definitely stay again.

The place itself was located in a nice area - we liked how we were away from town but it was right across from us. Enjoyed our stay, the views were immaculate. The place was kind of dirty - it seemed to be a fast clean, coming from my perspective as a cleaner - cockroaches were foubd etc thought there would be access to more linen towels etc. orher then that would stay here again and take in own cleaning equipment, linen etc if we do.

Great location
We enjoyed the location, good communication with renting agency. The appartment could do with a good clean, paying good $$, we expect it to be clean. Also be aware you have to take away all your rubbish so go prepared with rubbish bags.
