About the host

Hosted by Luke Gleeson

Host profile image
I'm married to Michelle and have 2 lovely girls. My wife and I travelled a lot before kids and still love to travel now. The opportunities to travel abroad are not the same as they use to be but we are very lucky to have the chance to explore our beautiful country Aotearoa (New Zealand). We've had lovely experiences using air bnb and now are lucky enough to be hosts ourselves. We pride ourselves in providing accommodation that we would be delighted to stay in.

Why they chose this property

Built in 2019, we chose this location as it had the best of both worlds, on lake Taupo for summer water sports and close to the mountain for winter skiing / snowboarding.
