Highly recommend

I highly recommend this property. It is very well equipped, very clean, with comfortable beds and close to restaurants and shops in the town centre. The host is very easy to communicate with and was most helpful for all our enquiries. Also plenty of space in the garden.

The home was so beautifully presented. Very comfortable, clean tidy and warm. So much space for my family of 7 and there was still extra sleeping arrangements with the sleep out available which we didnt end up using. The indoor to outdoor flow of the house was perfect for those sun rise mornings and sunset nights. We got the sun throughout the house all day. If it got too hot we could open the doors on both sides of the house to keep cool. The fireplace was so handy to have that it kept the house so cosy when it got chilly. All bedrooms had a heater which was perfect for the cold mornings. It was hreat having to seperate bathroom sinks especially with teens. Everything we required was provided and being close to town was great and the lake near by was a huge bonus. The property was entirely gated with plenty of parking for our cars which gave us extra security. My teens loved having the wifi and Netflix access so they could watch movies. My favorite place in the home was the kitchen seating area for dining with plenty of chairs available for my entire family. There was nothing bad about this home. that i will be bookong this beautiful home again for our next trip to Taupo. I recommend this lovely home to a big family wanting a weekend getaway. We would have bought our family dogs if it was permitted. This would have completed our family trip. All over beautiful home. The host Reena was wonderful and communication was great too. Thank you Reena. From the Simi family.

An excellent property to stay in. The only drawback I would say for larger groups is that there is only one toilet and one bathroom/shower. Great position, clean and comfortable.
