Manager was so helpful, stay was peaceful, private and amazing views. Only real grizxle was the King bed that was made up of two single mattresses that you fell into the gsp. Did make for a good sleep.
Modern, warm, and clean with lovely kitchen, spa, and lakeview but house is a bit odd with no curtains anywhere including bedrooms which can be looked into from the lounge area, no wifi and a VERY firm bed. Fortunately it is secluded!
Exceptional location and view. Spacious and open room and lounge living and kitchen. Bed is a bit hard and has separate mattresses but the view from it is awesome. Thatâs picking holes in what is a truly exceptional stay. Highly recommend and would love to return next time weâre in Taupo.
The lodge and all of its property was amazing and the views were spectacular! The location was perfect for us where it felt secluded and quiet, yet close to the city.
The listing does not do the location justice. It is quiet an private, with amazing views.
The house is well appointed and has everything you need for a quiet break.
What a great destination - we loved the privacy and enjoyed sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars. Great view of Lake Taupo, the city lights are on the other side of the lake, so we could easily see the Milky Way and other stars in the night sky.The property had a large kitchen, living room and bedroom. Everything was clean and well appointed. The property doesnât have Wi-Fi but it did have excellent mobile service. We also enjoyed walking the grounds and met the neighbor, who is also the caretaker of the property and they were very nice.Great destination to rest and relax!
Wonderful environment to get way and relax or base your ski/MTB/hike adventure from. Beautiful park gardens, native bush & birds, awesome vista of lake Lake Taupo from the home and spa. What more could you want?
Lovely views, Quiet location. Apart from a minor glitch checking in, which the host responded to promptly, our stay was lovely. Place was spotlessly clean. Unit had everything we needed. Shower pressure was great. Bed wasnt a king as described but two twin mattress pushed together on a king frame.. Mattress was so firm it was uncomfortable.
We arrived in the rain and we were hit by the âwowâ factor, the house was everything we expected and more, open and spacious, amazing views and what can best be described as our own botanical gardens.
It was a place that you did not want to leave.
Great place to stay if you need a peaceful getaway and time to switch off. Fantastic views, great fire.
Bed could be upgraded to make this a more comfortable and romantic stay & recommend packing a blue tooth speaker of the like for some background noise.
We had a lovely stay. The views are gorgeous and canât be missed as there are windows everywhere. Hot tub is very nice. Home is very spacious. Firm bed.
Such an idyllic location ⊠no close neighbours, no television, not even curtains! Just the most beautiful view and heavenly spa to soak in, after a couple of days day tripping the Central Plateau and all that it has to offer. Thank you so much đ
We had such a wonderful, lovely time here. Whatâs better than enjoying the awesome views from the spa, lighting up a fire, and enjoy some card games we havenât played for some years?!
Thanks for having us :)
This is a stunning property with even more incredible views from every room in the house. very spacious, impeccably decorated and an easy place to just hang out and relax.
This spacious home had the most beautiful sunrise and sunsets and gorgeous gardens surrounding the home that we could walk around. The view of the lake is stunning we could look out over it from the hot tub. After the sun set, we could enjoy the fire, which was just so relaxing. It is a bit remote, but with that, you get tranquility and peace. Absolutely worth it. We were willing to drive, so we could still explore the national parks in the surrounding area. Communication was also great. We extended our stay twice at the last minute as our plans changed and they were so accommodating.
I took a 3 night stay at this lodge with partner and was completely stoked with the quiet and the lake view. The lodge has a lot of pros on top such as ample wood supply for the fire burner, huge garden with fresh fruit to wonder through, hot tub with a view, spacious rooms, private location, great value, well stocked kitchen and the property manager Max looked after us too. The cons of the property would be minor, my recommendation would be some curtains in the bedroom to allow sleep in if guests in the future wished to do this. We loved this stay and will be back again if we are so lucky to have the opportunity to do so, Thank you guys!
