Very close to Taupo town the lake love exploring Taupo but the thing is was bit too small for a family for 4 was tiny beds very comfortable wish they had a tv in adults room and bigger kitchen and pool would be good but other than that we all enjoyed staying there highly recommended for smaller families like one child and two adults or jus two adults

Was nice place just neighbours real close, their door was right outside our bathroom window which didn’t have curtain was just a little blurry but they could still see through it. Soap in shower was empty, thought they would fill it up before getting new people coming in. Parking was a little tight. Other then that nice stay for a night.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
If it's just a bed for the night you're after then this would be fine but anything longer is not suitable. We put the dishes out to be cleaned as directed and came back to dirty dishes which meant we couldn't eat in the room because the facilities don't allow you to clean them yourself. We stayed here as it was dog friendly but it's not fenced and the rooms were very small for a group of more than 2
