Family holiday

Wow the view was amazing. One of the best views in Taupo. The house was spacious and mostly pretty comfortable. Bathrooms and kitchen need a refresh but kitchen was well stocked for a large family group. Plenty of parking for 4 cars. Fabulous outdoor area with lots of seating and comfirtable lounge area. We had a wonderful time. Thankyou.

The property was lovely. We enjoyed our time. It’s seven minutes drive to town. With all the shops and groceries you won’t worry about running out of food. Plenty of utensils, plates, bowls, cooking wares to use. Coffeemaker did not work but it’s ok, we didn’t go there for that. Barbecue on the other hand is quite disappointing. I marinated meat for barbecue and looked forward to using it only to find that underneath of the grill is filthy. While the top grill looks clean we opted not to use it as we know that barbie’s not going to taste nice with the underneath filth that looks like it has been there for quite awhile. On the positive side, Sheets and towels are comfortably clean. Quiet Neighborhood. the Neighbor is nice has 3 amazing dogs that we kept waving at. Overall it was a great place to have a quiet, fun weekend with the family. Please note: there are only 3 rooms that has doors. The other “2 rooms” are not rooms they were converted to make it look like rooms but they are ante-room. They are sitting room lounge.

The property is in a great location but very old and tired. Rotten deck boards, cupboard knobs broken, light bulbs missing; no extension cords for electric blanket; everything in need of a revamp before the house goes into a dilapidated state

Beautiful Haven

This house really was special, we loved the views.. watching the sunrise the and spacious outdoor areas for kids to explore. Close to the bay and not too far to town. It was perfect for my family of four children and my parents to all have our own space when needed and enjoy the property together.

Good in general

Had a problem with hot water.. not enough hot water for the amount of people to bath and shower.. we were 8 adults and only 4 could use water to shower before it was cold and no one else could use it.. took a long time to reheat..
