Wish we had stayed longer!

The house was very clean, beautifully presented and spacious. It was just a short drive down to Acacia Bay, for kayaking, swimming and bush walking. It ticked all the boxes for an easy, fun and relaxing holiday.

Great family house

Pleasant house in a nice area. Good views from to top floor and very convenient to Taupo city centre. The star of the show was the table tennis setup in the garage - we had a fun family tournament.

Home away from home

We were really impressed with how clean and tidy the house was. Spacious kitchen, quality decor, comfy beds, games, and little notes around the house really made our stay a great one. Weather was not amazing during our stay so it was nice to come and retreat somewhere nice and hang out with our family. Would stay again.

Well appointed home.

We had an excellent stay in Taupo thanks in part to this home. It rained almost the entire time we were there but the house came with plenty of space and activities for us to keep busy. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to take advantage of the BBQ.
