Guest Reviews
- Jo-Anne (9/5): It was a lovely property for all of us for our annual family get together. Would definitely stay here again. - Accommodated our whole family. It had everything we needed - well appointed. The plunge pool wasn’t working.
- Trish (10/5): Brilliant - Location and everyone had a bed
- Judy (9/5): House with a view - Muritai House was an excellent location for our high school reunion and celebration of our 70th birthdays. It has amazing views over Lake Taupo to the mountains and isn't far from the town center so an easy walk for meals and shopping. We were happy with the range of bedrooms and ensuites available and the large lounge,/dining,/kitchen area for gathering in.
- Spencer (8/5): Overall the house was great ,clean,tidy and very well appointed for all your needs. - It was great to have room for all the family,plenty of bathrooms and the two living areas worked well .
Excellent location and outlook.The pool was great for the kids and kept them happy for hours. The bugs were very evident downstairs and fly spray was not supplied as stated. The front door is very stiff to open and initially was reluctant to force it.Some of the old joinery is wearing out and one window latch in a bedroom broke off.We obeyed the 9.00am noise rule only to have the neighbour behind party on until midnight, very noisy talking & screaming at times.The drive way is quite challangeing when you have a few vehicles.
- Justine (10/5): Exceptional -
- B (9/5): Superb - Fabulous home for a few families - ample space and awesome facilities
- Maraea (10/5): Exceeded expectations - The entire whare was immaculately presented with all amenities over and above. The kitchen set up made for easy interaction amongst everyone to eat together. The sleeping arrangements were great and the bed/linens super comfy. Instructions were easy too follow and the view was to die for!
- Maria (10/5): Muritai house never fails to provide the perfect location for our annual business planning. - We had issues with the wifi while we were at the house.
- Colleen (10/5): Exceptional - Great for a large group. Many bathrooms and modern.
- Gabriel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Terry (9/5): Lovely - View and the size of the house Outside lighting. It was very dark when going outside.
- Andy (10/5): Brilliant, will be back for a family holiday when we can. - Easy instructions for check in. Was perfect. Nothing, it was great! Just wish we could have stayed longer!!! :)
- Pip (9/5): AMAZING - Muritai house was everything we could have asked for and more and the view was outstanding
- Joyce (9/5): We would come back again - Beautiful house with stunning views The driveway to the house was very narrow. we had a twelve passenger van that barely made it.. WE also felt that we had to clean up the house like we got it and we do pay a cleaning fee to cover that. we had to wash and put all the dishes away and not leave it in the dishwasher..throw all the rubbish away.. not enough rubbish bags..
- Jocelyn (10/5): Needs were met beautiful view s the plunge pool could not fault the house we so enjoyed the weekend - Everything ❤️ Downstairs was cold
- Karina (8/5): Very good -
- Siu (8/5): Very good - Fabulous view,clean and tidy
Value for money
- Janet (10/5): Wow, view, ambience was amazing, we truly loved our time in Taupo. - Loved the view, had everything we needed. Fantastic linen and towels. Great location and enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommend 😍 Needed sharper knives and a better clothes dryer
- Bastiaan (8/5): Perfect - No aircon
- Sneha (9/5): Superb -
- Kim (8/5): The house was a great size. The bathrooms were fabulous. Parking not the best. Kitchen well equipped - No Garden for the kids. The house was very hot.
- Brian (10/5): We had a lovely weekend and enjoyed your property and all it had to offer. - Good location, views, layout and facilities. Access and off street parking was difficult for a large group. I understand the neighbours concerns but it put us on edge a little with the restrictions around parking & noise. Not because we were there to party but we were a large family group and wanted to have a fun, relaxing weekend together.
- Noah (10/5): Exceptional - Location and view 1 bed room was only have a partition screen.
- Amanda (10/5): Great location and views - A perfect house and a perfect location and views. The heated floors were great. Plenty of room for all 9 guests. Great cooking facilities and excellent service when we requested another frypan. Thank you hosts, we really enjoyed our stay.
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Roxanne (8/5): Enjoyable - Spacious Spa wasn’t hot but luke warm
- Ketsuda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Leonardus (9/5): Superb -
- Nicola (10/5): Exceptional - The size was perfect for our group of friends. The view was amazing. A serviceman arrived promptly to sort out the heating which was greatly appreciated. Basement heating affected the upstairs heating making it too hot upstairs during the night. The cobwebs on the ceiling and the bugs in the light fittings. Plugs for sinks didn't fit making washing dishes difficult.
- Charlotte (7/5): Great house but needs some repairs to fix the leaky roof. - Heaps of room for a big group.
Excellent kitchen with everything you need.
Heating was great.
Modern facilities.
Great parking
Loved all the bathrooms The ceiling leaked in a few of the rooms. One leak was right above the bed. Woke up saturated and cold. We found a few other leaks in the ceiling in the house too. I emailed the property manager to let them know as they might not know as it was a very rainy night. It has been 24hrs and I've had no response. I'm not a negative person but since I've had no response I'm leaving this review.
- Shannon (10/5): Excellent - Amazing view. Loved the size of the property and the spa. The house was very warm in cold weather. Great place for a big group. Nothing to not like about this property.
- Jerome (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (9/5): Great place, shame about neighbours - Fantastic place for family gathering, well equipped, loads of space. Whilst we were very happy to adhere to house rules re no noise after 9pm it's a pity the neighbours didn't do the same. House next door played intrusive music till 1am on Saturday morning and 2am on Sunday morning.
- Sandra (9/5): Superb - Fantastic view and location. Loved split living where we all had our own space. Clean, tidy and relaxing. Hope to return. Outside gardens need to be spruced up to make property more appealing. House needs a wash especially around the outside windows where insects are nesting etc.
- Mikayla (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful big house that served our whanau well. The house had everything we needed. Service was amazing. Highly recommend
- Chrissie (10/5): Beautiful home, great for our group. Excellent facilities. - Was beautiful home and great for our first meeting of the new Board.
Plenty of space, and beds and great facilities to support 12 people. Nothing
- Robert (9/5): We had a fabulous time as a family and would recommend. - Amazing views. Nice and warm, well equipped kitchen and great social spaces. It is a great space for a family group, and if we'd brought kids along it would have been really great for them as well. This has been a beautiful property, but sadly it’s showing it’s age looking unloved in some areas. Brocken lights, dirty lights, leaking ceiling, pool not working, they did refund us $150 for the pool not working, the bed in main bedroom is small and uncomfortable 🥴 (Queen, and too soft, but others may like this) the rest of the beds were great. For the money you pay per night you don’t expect to see these things.
- Bernadette (10/5): warm, cozy, spacious, the view is stunning. - I loved how was spacious and so comfortable warm & such a beautiful home.☺️ it was perfect. was gutted the plunge pool was not functioning would have been a bonus.
- Elaine (8/5): Would stay again - lots of space, beautiful views, nice linen, good amount of kitchen goods The windows and frames needed cleaning. The heating was working properly.
