Summary: Modern, warm, and clean with lovely kitchen, spa, and lakeview but house is a bit odd with no curtains anywhere including bedrooms which can be looked into from the lounge area, no wifi and a VERY firm bed. Fortunately it is secluded!

Summary: What a great destination - we loved the privacy and enjoyed sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars. Great view of Lake Taupo, the city lights are on the other side of the lake, so we could easily see the Milky Way and other stars in the night sky.The property had a large kitchen, living room and bedroom. Everything was clean and well appointed. The property doesn’t have Wi-Fi but it did have excellent mobile service. We also enjoyed walking the grounds and met the neighbor, who is also the caretaker of the property and they were very nice.Great destination to rest and relax!

Summary: Exceptional location and view. Spacious and open room and lounge living and kitchen. Bed is a bit hard and has separate mattresses but the view from it is awesome. That’s picking holes in what is a truly exceptional stay. Highly recommend and would love to return next time we’re in Taupo.

Summary: Lovely views, Quiet location. Apart from a minor glitch checking in, which the host responded to promptly, our stay was lovely. Place was spotlessly clean. Unit had everything we needed. Shower pressure was great. Bed wasnt a king as described but two twin mattress pushed together on a king frame.. Mattress was so firm it was uncomfortable.

Summary: This is an idyllic property set in an exclusive private grounds. Easily a 10/10 for the above. However, where it falls short is with the bed. Two king single mattresses pushed together do not make a super king bed. Plus the mattresses were very hard and the bedding was for the single beds. If only the owner would invest in a soft deluxe super king mattress and some high-quality bedding, to match the quality of the property. We ended up sleeping on the couch as it was slightly softer. A positive though was the spa pool.
