"Beautiful relaxing stay in Taupo. Will look forward to returning in future."

Beautiful water front facing property. Serene & lovely.

The toilet fittings could do with an upgrade. Looking very worn & jaded.

"Amazing and we recommend to anyone!"

10.0

Location was excellent! The chalet has this old school charm to it. I reckon our cabin number 6 had the best view. It would be an amazing summer getaway bach for sure. Planning to go back at some point this year or in the summer months hopefully with more people with us. The chalet also had everything we needed in terms of cooking utensils. Place was warm and cozy - got a bit too warm at one point (our own doing). Beds were comfy. Our babies enjoyed sleeping across each other in their separate room. Price is also reasonable - in the middle of winter. Annie and Mike were also very accommodating to our concerns. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Most of the doors are creaky. It wasn’t a big deal though. My kids are good sleepers now.

"Beautiful location and well maintained apartment. Highly recommend!"

10.0

Location was amazing, the apartment had everything we needed, was clean and well maintained.

Only downfall was trying to control the temperature at night with a baby. There was no split system in the main bedroom so we had to utilise the portable heater provided to warm and open windows to cool when needed. This wasn’t a big issue though just something we had to adjust to.
