We are officially in love with Taupo!! We'll be back - and would love to stay here again. The studio is tucked far enough away from the city centre to feel private and un-touristy, but close enough to be convenient for everything you could ever need. The Two Mile Bay Sailing Club (three-minute walk) became our "local" for the two nights we were in town - great vibes, food and outlook! Thanks, Selena - just idyllic.
