The PERFECT spot to stay in Taupo

We stay here every time we are in Taupo. Ross is a wonderful host, so friendly and obliging. The rooms are amazing…we stay in the beautiful ‘cottage’ most times. The motel is dog friendly so we bring are fur babies. Location is PERFECT. Love having the Two Mile Bay sailing club literally over the road.

Had problems as the mattress was not very uncomfortable and the pillows went flat very soon. Other than other guests who couldn’t seem to obey curfew times (this was dealt with very quickly by owners) this was good for us

This was a great place to stay, just outside the town, which was a short easy drive to get to. We only had one night here, but could have stayed longer. The washing machine and dryer was all free and they also provided powder, although we had brought our own with us. When we were there the plums on the tree had just ripened and we were allowed to take some, which was really nice. Close to Huka Falls and Aratiiatia Rapids, that releases water a few times a day and a real must to see. Also close by is Otumuheke stream, which is a free hot pool in the river, absolutely brilliant.

Clean, comfortable and convenient

Comfortable three night stay in this motel, with the lake across the road. Small dining table with a couple of easy chairs - needed to sit on the extra cushions to eat at the table. Comfortable, good sized bed. Small kitchenette with fridge-freezer, two ring hob, microwave, toaster and kettle - plus cutlery, crockery and utensils. Small en suite shower/toilet room with heated towel rail - plenty of hot water. The room is fronted by floor to ceiling glass sliding door and windows, so use the curtains for privacy/block out the sun. Room service was sporadic: one day but not another. Designated parking space. A few km from Taupo centre. A clean, comfortable and convenient place to stay.
