We had a nice 3-night-stay at Karen’s place. Coffee (actual espresso! :)) and cereal was provided for breakfast - for bigger eaters there is a countdown 10min walk from the place.
The studio was exactly as pictured and spotless. Just down the road you get to Lake Taupō along which you can walk to town or however far you want to walk.
If you don’t want to walk: Within 10-20min of driving you can reach most of the tourist attractions in the area.
Next to the Airbnb is the family’s home with a lovely garden. This is also where you can put up your laundry.
