Great property with a beautiful view of the lake. Very clean well appointed apartment. We walked by the lake into Taupo for meals etc. our van was too high for the garage 3.1 meters but street parking was not a problem.
Fantastic all that we could have wanted only thing is a window that opened wide in single beds room that a toddler could potentially open and fall out. Please ensure safety stays are put in place !!

We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to host you again soon!
We are in the process of having window safety stays put on the high windows. Thank you for brining this to our attention.
Arrived over the weekend. Took me 5 mins to figure out lockbox to get key. Easy from there.
Lovely apartment, beautiful views. Kids loved the pool. Very quite apartments, cafe down the road and around the lake are fantastic. Hired bikes and really enjoyed the location.
Walls and windows need an extra clean in spots here and there. Not a big issue.
