Close and comfortable

Good space for a family, close to town. Communication from manager/owner was great. Photo of the river access a bit misleading as it is across a busy road (to be fair, listing does only say its a view) but still a nice property. Would stay again 😊

Convenient and Comfortable

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The place was clean, warm, well-equipped and convenient to the city centre. There was a fair amount of traffic but this did not disrupt our relaxation and rest unduly. Overall we would definitely stay here again.

A great family break in Taupo

We’ve stayed in several holiday rental properties over the years and this would be one of our favorites. Great for our family of five, convenient to Taupo township and felt likes home away from home. Would love to rebook this property.
