If you are looking for somewhere to stay a short walk away from the centre and the lake but still quiet as is not bang in the centre then this is the place.
It’s decent enough sized for what a couple would need for a few days away.
There is a small kitchenette with a fridge, kettle, microwave and sink.
The host was very friendly.
There is a restaurant at the end of the road as well as a pub and the rest of Taupo is approx 10 minutes walk.
Would definitely stay here again
