The unit is due for a major upgrade according to the staff member I spoke with at reception and it certainly needs it including kitchen makeover and replacement of crockery, cutlery and replacement of missing fire extinguisher in kitchen.

Good location, bed needs an upgrade
Had a great overnight stay. Apartment spacious and clean with a lovely lake view. Only negative was bed was very soft and probably quite old as soft sided and partner disturbance. For this reason we probably wouldn’t stay again. A shame because everything other than sleep quality was very good.

Well appointed, very clean and everything you would ever need for a longer stay. Unit was very spacious and nice gardens. Staff were very welcoming. Located right on lake front but wasn’t bothered by any street noise.

This isn't our first time booking this place, as its location is perfect for a short trip in Taupo. However, we were a bit disappointed this time. It seems there was a mix-up with our room; we had booked a Superior Room but received a Deluxe Room instead, and some advertised features didn’t match what we found. Additionally, the photos for the Superior Room were a bit misleading, as they suggested it would have a private bathroom, which wasn’t available during our stay. While we appreciate the charm of the property, it was a bit frustrating when our expectations didn’t quite align with the experience.

Property is old. One of the sofa bed in lounge wasn’t in good condition, the mattress on sofa bed was old too. Couldn’t sleep comfortably. We didn’t know that bedroom doesn’t have heat pump. For 2 degree Celsius temperature heat pump is must. Room bathroom and kitchenette were nice and clean.

Fabulous location opposite the lake and a short walk to restaurants and shops. Very happy to have access to ground coffee and a coffee plunger. Bed was clean and comfortable. Steps to our room had sensors that were a tad slow to switch the lights on and the lights could have been brighter but other than that everything else was great and we'd happily stay here again.
