Great place for a family stay in Taupo.
We had an awesome time in Taupo and really enjoyed our stay in this holiday home. It was large/spacious with everything we needed. Close enough to the town centre and lake front. The whole family enjoyed lounging around and enjoying ice cold drinks thanks to the ice maker in the fridge during our downtimes, and found the place really comfortable. It does get really hot upstairs during summer so the Aircon and fans were appreciated. Owners were responsive to our questions and everything went really smoothly we highly recommend this place.
