Calida was very welcoming and warm. I had pulled a back muscle on my flight from the US to NZ and she was able to recommend a local physio and I was able to get dry needling to relieve the pain. I very much appreciated her knowledge of the area and her recommendations. The space was exactly what we needed with a lovely fire place, local breakfast items and a very comfortable bed! Would absolutely stay again as this location was very close to a ton of local shops and adventures in Taupo like the Māori carving boat ride and thermal spas! Calida is an excellent host!
