About this property

Central & Spacious

Summary:

Enjoy great value! With three bedrooms and walking distance to Crown Park, it's ideal for Taupō’s big events.



Located a brief drive from both the town center and the shores of Lake Taupō.



Your ultimate Taupō retreat awaits!



**Promotion - Stay 3 nights pay for 2 (*T&Cs below).



The Space:

Your ultimate Taupō retreat awaits with three bedrooms, including a super king in the master and queen beds in the others, each with a panel heater. Note: there are stairs to access the rooms.



Relax in the lounge with a large TV or gather in the dining area. There’s a fully equipped kitchen. Unwind in the bath/shower, with a separate toilet nearby. Stay cozy year-round with a heat pump /aircon in the lounge.



Outside, relax and let the kids enjoy safely the fully fenced backyard. Your perfect getaway awaits!



Please note: This is not a modern or luxury property — it has a more traditional, older style and some signs of wear and tear. However, it offers a rare opportunity for large groups (up to 18 guests) to stay together under one roof, right in the center of Taupō. If you're looking for space, and convenience, this home could be a great fit. If you're after a high-end or newly renovated space, this may not be the right option for you.



While no one will be staying in the downstairs area and you will have the house for yourself, the downstairs is not available for guests on this listing. For larger groups, check out our separate listing for the entire house, sleeping up to 18.



Guest Access:

Check-in instructions will be sent to your message thread three days before your check-in date.



The Neighborhood:

This house is near Crown Park where all the local Football events are held. A short drive up the road will take you to a Foursquare Supermarket and takeaways and bottle stores.



The property is very close to its neighbours, so guests need to be mindful of noise, particularly when using the Spa, where we have strict times of use.



Other Things to Note:

Stay 3 Nights, Pay for 2!



Valid Sunday–Thursday this month only. Excludes weekends, public holidays, and school holidays. Free night must be requested when booking. You will need to book the first two nights, and we will reserve the third one separately for you to enjoy.

Had some family in from Canada to visit and took them to Taupo to explore the area. Great place to stay, very comfortable, very clean and very central location. Great communication and check in was a breeze, the house even ended up being available earlier than check in!!Highly recommend

Review

Disappointed that the spa was dirty with clumps of hair floating round, didn’t fancy going in. A bit old and tired and not very clean, however the beds were clean and the shower was good.The property was a distance from town.
