Really enjoyed getting to meet Jeremy - a very kind and thoughtful host. The location was close to the waterfront and a short hop to downtown- fantastic!
Just what we need for a 5 day break in Taupo.
Very quiet, comfortable and a lovely part view of the lake. A short walk to the lake shore which connects to a walkway around some of the bays and if you turn right and walk for 30 minutes it takes you to mini golf, slightly further to the main Taupo shopping and restaurant hub
Such a gorgeous walk. A short drive to De Bretts thermal pools. A great place for the 3 of us.

Very welcoming host and great directions given. A few tweaks would make the place more comfortable as it is maybe time for an update of some of the appliances and streamline what furniture is required in the room so it would be a little more spacious. A tea towel would be a handy addition in the kitchen. Overall a lovely quiet clean and tidy place to stay. Much appreciated, thanks Jeremy.
The property is in a great location. Nice and quiet and easy walking to town.
Accommodation was very nice with all the amenities we needed.
Perfect for a long weekend, or longer. Will definitley be staying again.
Great little getaway with a nice tidy unit and Jeremy was a friendly host. Would happily stay again.
Note driveway access is more suited to walking rather than driving unless you have a very small car. Parking out the front was fine though.
This is a great spot, close enough to town, quiet and with a view of and access to the water. The unit is well set up and comfortable. Easy to organise with the host. Enjoyable stay.
