We loved staying at this place - it was perfect for our needs, and more. Melanie has thought of everything, and created a fantastic holiday home, decorated with lots of lovely touches and hints to the lake which is just yards away - which we loved looking at from the large patio window. We appreciated the open plan design. The kitchen is fully equipped, with even a useful washer-dryer. Very comfortable bed (there are two doubles but only one was needed). The bathroom is great, with a range of toiletries provided, and a full on shower with lashings of hot water. The place has fast Wi-Fi, satellite TV, and a Bluetooth ‘radio’, as well as a superb original Bush wireless!
Outside is very private, with a decking area and outdoor dining table, perfect for views of the lake. A short scramble and we were at the shore/beach, with options to take the lakeside walk, or hop in the kayaks. Five minutes in the car and we were in Taupo town. We loved every minute of our stay. Five stars from us.
