We had a wonderful time staying at the beautiful home, and highly recommend the place for the location, views, the warm hospitality, and the home made raspberry jam!
The property itself is located 45 minutes away from the bustle of Taupo town. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday, then Omori Lakehouse is the perfect home away from home. Overlooking the magnificent Lake Taupo, the views from the property are a sight for sore eyes. But you are going to be easily distracted by the property itself, which is tastefully set up. We stayed at the Tui room, which has a big en-suite. If you are able to get out of the comfortable bed, do spend time in the common living area and the the outside deck. Both the views of the lake and the home itself make the stay feel like an ultra luxurious getaway. Don’t miss the herb garden in the front of the house!
What makes the place even more special are the warm and generous hosts - Denise and Ian. Denise and Ian went to great lengths to make us feel at home. It was a pleasure catching up with them over afternoon tea and understanding their journey and their passion for sharing their lovely Omori Lakehouse with guests, discussing cricket and other things! Denise makes a mean raspberry jam which we devoured over breakfast!
We have stayed in our fair share of holiday homes, but none come close to the Omori Lakehouse - you will not be disappointed! We can’t wait to return to the lovely home.
Thank you Denise and Ian, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you and staying in your beautiful home.
