I really loved my stay in Acacia Bay. Irene and Neil's home is an amazing, warm place with beautiful views looking out over Lake Taupo.

The house is in a convenient and safe place, whether you want to lock away your car and explore by foot or take day trips out to scenic New Zealand spots such as the Huka Falls or Waitomo Caves. This is a perfect location. At night you can relax by the extremely easy to use fireplace (no fire building skills required) and enjoy the warmth, peace and quiet that Irene and Neil's home affords.

I can't recommend staying here enough. The lake is a five minute walk from the property - a secluded bay offers kayak hire and ample opportunity to watch and engage with the vibrant, local bird life. A perfect spot to enjoy a beer after a day exploring the North Island and watch the sun go down. Magnificent!
