Lovely host throughout our stay. Really nice pool and surrounding area with 2 barbecues. Lovely lake views from our room. The walkway out the back gate to the lake was a bonus. Great place for couples or families. Highly recommend.

Have stayed multiple times before and loved it. Prob won't stay again. Felt like I was a problem from arrival to departure. Front desk is never manned, when it is the woman is abrupt to the point of rudeness. Something has changed here. Room & pool area felt tired and the sofa grubby/ dusty. There are so many other options in Taupo for less $, so will try somewhere else for my next stay.

We stayed here one night. I knew it was small, but think that it was this small! It is very narrow and is on the lake, but you are likely not able to see the lake from your room. The place looks like it was recently renovated and the kitchen was well stocked and you could cook in your room if you wanted. The pool/spa area is nice but very small and you are surrounded by buildings on the two sides. So just need to be aware…calling it a ‘resort’ is definitely a stretch…but nice hotel to stay in. The owners are very nice.

Excellent staff . Room was well stocked and clean. Pool and spa were literally outside door (thermal heated). AC had leak but staff advised of this and were very helpful. We chose to still use room and it was easy to limit to no leak or very small while keeping room cooled.
