By far the best stay ever. Maureen’s place is amazing. From the house exterior, to the little details like chocolates on your bedside table, every thing was great.
We took a wrong turn on the expressway when our GPS died and ended up taking an hour long detour to Maureen’s place. She was really understanding and stayed up to wait for us. It was a cold night and when we checked in, she made us hot chocolate which warmed our hearts and bodies, she also made us a little snack in case we were hungry.
The room and amenities - wow. Heated blankets were switched on when we came in so that the room was nice and toasty, toilets were clean and smelt fresh. She also gave us a personalised tour of the house and introduced us to the house pet, a gorgeous rag doll, Pearl. (The sweetest thing ever!!!)
In the morning, we woke up to a wonderful continental breakfast - healthy fruit salad, toast, assortment of cereal, teas and jams as well as speciality Taupo honey.
Maureen also helped us to plan the rest of our itinerary and gave us some really good suggestions to visit.
An amazing stay by an amazing hostess. Thank you so so much, Maureen! Definitely will recommend to everyone who is visiting Taupo!
