We love De Bretts, but the finishing touches were missing this time. We paid $960 for 3 nights, the room wasn't serviced for 3 days, dishwasher liquid not supplied, service requests not followed up. Hot pool renovation is awesome and very cool for kids.

The view of the lake was awesome and when the sky was clear you could see Mt ruapehu from our lodging. The heated floor was a bonus for the winter chill and the beds were nice and soft. Town was down the road and family activities were close by. Was an amazing time for me and my family.
