Easter treat

The view from the house is glorious- the house was fabulous- there were 11 of us and there was plenty of space. The circular drive was very useful and accommodated 3 cars and a small boat. I was caught out by the advertised price which was in US dollars on Vrbo when I thought it was NZ dollars made it more expensive- but we had a lovely time in a great house.

Family get away

We were 3 families ( 9 people in total) in Taupo to celebrate a wedding anniversary. Lovely large home with great outdoor area. The bedroom set up was perfect for us. The house was well set up with ample towels pillows etc. perhaps more plates( only 6 large ones - for 9 people. Also only 5 chairs around the lovely large dining room table . Great location and way access to everything. In general an awesome place for a family getaway.

Taupo House

This house would’ve been an absolute Gem to stay in if it weren’t for the bug infestation of trout flies. We messaged the Property manager after our stay and apparently this is very normal so I would not recommend this place during summer at all unless you don’t mind having your ceiling filled with bugs and/or using insect spray to try rid of them only to end up having the dead bugs land all over the tables, floors and furniture :)

Good location with great views

This property has a good location in central Taupo with great views. The property is well set up for a large group. We did feel the property is in need of some maintenance in a few areas esp when you consider the rental cost.

Blissful- quality place to stay

SOOOOOO happy to have found this property. The pictures don't do it justice. What a view!. Perfect location, within easy walking distance to downtown for restaurants, shops and pubs. Within two minute walk (across the street) to the Lake boardwalk. We stayed here during an Ironman event and it was perfect. We were very sad to leave. And, please know that the soaking tub is really the size of a small hottub indoors off of the patio and fills with water from hot springs (I think). wonderful way to end the evening. Gardens around the home are also beautiful, with a nice private patio to sit out on every night. We will definitely rent again.
