About this property

Lake Taupō on your backyard!

Summary:
Welcome to our lakeside oasis! Voted one of Taupo's top 10 holiday homes, this studio is a blend of comfort and style. Recently renovated and tastefully decorated, it promises a relaxing stay by beautiful Lake Taupō.

The Space:
Indulge in a luxurious king-sized bed or craft culinary delights in the fully equipped kitchen, designed for modern living. Lounge indoors, binge-watching your favourite show on the smart TV, or dine al fresco at the picnic table, soaking in lakeside bliss.

Accommodating up to four guests, with a sofa bed, this studio is perfect for small families or couples seeking a romantic getaway. Note: the sofa-bed is best suited for children, given the open-plan layout of the lounge and bedroom. Stay snug year-round with double glazing and a heat pump/aircon.

Free off-street parking and a nearby boat ramp offer easy access to aquatic adventures. Please note, one car can be parked on-site, and additional parking is available on the street.

Nestled in Acacia Bay, enjoy serene lake views surrounded by a scenic public reserve. While the studio is the downstairs unit of a larger house, rest assured it's completely independent. Upstairs guests are typically respectful, but please be aware of potential noise. You can view the upstairs property on our website if you wish to book both spaces.

Conveniently located near Taupo's town centre, yet tucked away in peaceful Acacia Bay, you'll find the perfect balance of convenience and tranquillity. Explore local dining at The Bay Bar & Brasserie or uncover artistic gems at L'Arte Cafe Gallery.

Noisy upstairs
Beautiful location next to lake. We were warned about potential noise from upstairs residents, but assumed that they have been made aware of this problem. However, we found that the noise was annoying at night and early morning. One couple arrived at midnight and made a lot of noise for the next hour!!!! We had a cup of tea while we waited for some peace and quiet.

Perfect spot to chill
It was short but perfect. Considering there are many other homes around, it felt quite private. Location right on the lake was beautiful to see all the time! Bed, so so comfy! Short distance to town for retail & groceries. We could’ve stayed longer 😊

Beautiful property
We had a fabulous stay and only wish we could have spent more time at the property! (rather than watching football in the cold) Our children swam in the lake, jumped off the jetty and had a great time. The property was well equipped and the sunrise over the lake was stunning. We would definitely return again.
