Beautiful property in a pretty good location. Only a short drive to the lake and food options, walking distance to debretts hot pools. Massive house very spacious and great outdoor area. Kitchen had everything you need. Only thing i was a little bit gutted with was being charged for early check in (i only asked for 2hours early and this was only possible if the house was already free with noone staying the night before) so im not quite sure what that cost covered? But atleast it was still an option. Very happy with our stay and would stay again next trip to Taupo.
