Great property with a beautiful view of the lake. Very clean well appointed apartment. We walked by the lake into Taupo for meals etc. our van was too high for the garage 3.1 meters but street parking was not a problem.

School holidays

Arrived over the weekend. Took me 5 mins to figure out lockbox to get key. Easy from there. Lovely apartment, beautiful views. Kids loved the pool. Very quite apartments, cafe down the road and around the lake are fantastic. Hired bikes and really enjoyed the location. Walls and windows need an extra clean in spots here and there. Not a big issue.
