Great cottage with a spectacular view!

Andrei’s house had everything we needed and more! We ate all our meals on the patio overlooking the beautiful lake and mountains. We slept so well as the area is very quiet. Thank you for the perfect stay!

Perfect location for the Tongariro Alpine Crossing

What better way to cap off a long hike than with a refreshing swim from your perfectly located Bach. The place just felt like home and was so well equipped. We hope to be back.

Gorgeous and relaxing

We loved our stay in Omori. Andrew was responsive and helpful. The expansive view of Lake Taupō was wonderful both inside and outside on the deck. We are just sorry we couldn’t stay longer!

Lake Taupo view in Omori

Beautiful location and view of lake. Very peaceful. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable furnishings. Be sure to arrive with provisions as the store is about 20 to 30 min back.

A mid winter stay

With rain all around us, and hardly a drop falling in Omori. We enjoyed the isolation and had the fire cranking at night. The place was very cozy and we enjoyed wine in front of the fire and a mid winter quick dip in the lake. We are keen to come back and would recommend this place to others Thanks team

Lovely stay at Obo House

My partner and I recently stayed at Obo House and it was an amazing weekend. We have spoken and we hope our trip to Obo House becomes a regular occurrence. Its relaxed and secluded and we enjoyed being able to look out across the lake and spend our time reading and relaxing and venturing down to the Hanging Rock Café. Really enjoyed our time and can not recommend Obo House enough already planning our return trip.

Exceeding expectations, a blissful stay

This bach is an absolute gem! We were pleasantly surprised to find that it was even better than the photos. The view from the deck was amazing, the perfect spot for a coffee in the morning sun. The space itself was just the right size, and the layout had a great flow to it, making our stay super comfortable. We had an amazing time, every thoughtful touch added to the charm, making our stay so special.

Beautiful views; peaceful. 👍

Tidy, I liked this place. Cotton linens on the bed and a good mattress are important to me. I also appreciated the washing machine in the bathroom as it rained the two days we stayed. Nice electric heater in the living room kept the whole place warm.

Stunning views, lovely property

An excellent stay at a sensible price. Looks right over the lake, 3 minute walk down to the shore. Beautiful place to sit and contemplate. Water is calm, we went kayaking on the lake and it was bliss. Area is quiet, the birds in the trees were marvellous to listen to. Rooms inside are spacious, well kitted out with furniture. Would absolutely stay here again.

Beyond our wildest expectations!!!

This property was beyond amazing !!!! When we walked into this graciously apportioned property, the incredible view from the back porch took our breath away. Comfy beds, plenty on room, a great kitchen and did I mention the VIEW !!!! We have been in NZ for almost 2 months on both islands; this has got to be the nicest property we have stayed at yet. And the hosts are just as great as the view. A property like this in the US would cost 4 or 5 times as much, but the chances of ever getting a booking would be almost zero - that’s how great this bach is. Our only regret is not having a few more days (weeks?) to stay here. This place sets the standard for all the others to catch .

Long weekend of wild weather

Booked for 3 nights and sadly only stayed about 12 hours from arrival. Flood events back in Auckland forced a return home after first night. I am sure that this place would be lovely if the sun was out and not pressured by emergencies elsewhere! Didn't really get to see it on this visit.

About the host

Hosted by Andrei

Host profile image
I’m a family-focused person who finds joy in the little things—whether that’s a great cup of coffee, a well-made bed, or a quiet moment by the lake. I love spending time with my wife and two young sons, and I’m passionate about creating spaces that bring people comfort and connection.

Professionally, I run a bed manufacturing business, so I truly appreciate the value of a good night’s sleep—and I’ve brought that same care and attention to detail into this bach. Hosting gives me the chance to share the simple, meaningful experiences I value most: slowing down, being present, and enjoying time with the people you care about.

I also enjoy travelling, reading, working out, and listening to great music when I can find a quiet moment. I’m someone who appreciates thoughtful design and the beauty of well-crafted spaces—something I hope you’ll feel during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Omori the moment we visited. There’s something incredibly peaceful about this part of Lake Taupō — the stillness of the water in the morning, the chorus of native birds, and the sense that time slows down just a little here. It’s the kind of place where you can truly disconnect from the noise and reconnect with what matters.

We chose this spot because it offers the best of both worlds: natural beauty and simple comfort. Whether it’s walking down to the lake for a swim, enjoying fish and chips at the local shop, or sitting on the deck watching the sun set behind the hills, every visit leaves us feeling restored.

It’s become a special place for our family, and we hope it becomes a special place for you too — somewhere you’ll want to return to, again and again.

What makes this property unique

What sets our bach apart is the feeling it gives you the moment you arrive — a deep sense of calm, comfort, and care. It’s not just the location (though being only steps from Lake Taupō is pretty special); it’s the experience we’ve created inside and out. Thoughtfully furnished with everything you need — and nothing you don’t — it’s a space designed for slowing down and savouring simple moments.

We’ve made comfort a priority, with plush beds, cosy linens, and inviting spaces that make you want to linger.

Whether you’re here for lakeside adventures or quiet evenings with a glass of wine on the deck, this bach is your home away from home.
