I'm near the end of a week-long stay here, which has been delightful in every way. I loved the room - clean, bright and facing the pool - with mezzanine floor for sleeping. I had some writing work to complete, and it was just perfect for that. Plenty of quiet, beautiful lake view day and night, walks along the water's...

Quiet units despite being joined, on the lake which is nice for walks etc, very very helpful staff, WiFi available, Has a pool & trampoline for the kids. Units could be freshened up, Spa bath is very noisy. Also use Fair Trade tea, coffee and sugar. Our 3.5 year old loved it !

Lake front accommodation with heated pool. Nice units and clean. Friendly house staff. Not suitable for very young kids as some units have mezzanine floors which can be a risk for them. Also do not get the pool rooms as it can be noisy and no privacy. Free internet but limited to 50MB which is restrictive if you are hoping...

Hi GoldenDragon338, thank you for your review. We are really glad you found the place friendly and clean. It sounds like you stayed in the midst of the summer school holidays when the heated pool has been very busy and enjoyed by many. We do have garden rooms away from the pool and perhaps if you stay again you can...

Hello Saranypan, thank you for your lovely review. We thoroughly appreciate your comments and are so glad you had a nice comfortable stay.

Remember if you stay again you are always welcome to...

This is a lovely motel with a great lakeside setting. The room was spacious, light and airy. Whilst not brand new, they were very well maintained and exceptionally clean. Clearly there is a lot of care taken by the team.
The managers/owners were fantastic, so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. We wish we had had time to stay...

Hello Markle1, thank you for the wonderful review. From your photograph we can see you stayed in the Mountain View room. We hope the weather was beautiful and clear so you could see Mountains Ngaruhoe, Ruapehu and Tongariro, they are truly majestic on a beautiful day. We are glad you liked the room, it is unique with the high ceilings...

We absolutely loved this little motel right on the waterfront of Lake Taupo. The hosts were friendly and very helpful. The room we had was spacious and modern and very clean. My son loved the pool and the trampoline. They also had bikes for the guests to use. I would recommend this motel in an instant.

Hi Tracy, thank you for your lovely review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and your son enjoyed the pool and tramp. The pool and trampoline have certainly been well utilised over these holidays. Maybe next time you can take the bikes for a ride around the lake. We wish you a Happy New Year and thank you for...

Hi, what a fantastic review, thank you, we are so glad you enjoyed what we offer here. The cute duck certainly knows where he is well off, he loves our guests!.
