Raewyn and her husband was a great host. Besides giving us proper direction to the places we were going , they allowed us to use their kitchen to cook our sweet dessert in the night . The breakfast Raewyn prepared was awesome . The best breakfast I ever had during the trip . The beds were comfortable . Alto we are staying with the host , we were given optimal privacy that we didn’t feel we are staying with them . Highly recommend to anyone visiting Taupo .
