Unfortunately we had to pack up our stuff and sleep in our car on our first night as we discovered bed bugs. We bought this to the attention of the staff as soon as the reception opened. We had to show the staff how to spot bed bugs which was concerning. Unfortunately they were unable to reallocate us to another room/property so we were refunded. The room itself was dated and dirty. There was still hair in the bathroom sink and crumbs on the carpet. Staff were lovely and helpful but after our horrifying bed bug experience we won’t be back.

Room was very small, which was manageable- but there were just a small list of things to fix, to really lift our rating. Needed: Two sturdy bedside tables, two bedside lights, ceiling fan, bathroom cabinet, and fix dripping toilet. Simple fixes would make a big difference.

My kids loved the pool and spa, the staff were lovely and helpful and it is right next to the lake. The room was much smaller than anticipated, the shower was mouldy and we found items in the room from previous visitors. It was quite hard to sleep as all the noise came right through from the upstairs guests.

When we came early, we couldn’t check in cause they’re still cleaning. Pool was small, it was shown in the pic to be bigger. The room had loose window handles, loose coat hangers, no microwave so be ready to bring money to eat out. If you’re staying at the bottom floor, you can definitely hear the footsteps or turning on the water of others in their respective rooms. Only one window, it was really hot. The view to the lake is selective, we had a view of a corner literally dirt and plants.

The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Loved the pool and hot tub. Close to the center of Taupo. The downside was that the staff started cleaning surrounding rooms at 6am and loudly knocking on each door before entering.

Great location and awesome pool and spa. The spa was rather dirty but we used it regardless and tried not to mind. The room itself probably needs a good dusting cause myself and my partner found eachother constantly sneezing and having runny noses throughout our stay. Their rooms dont always have a microwave but they were fast to bring one to us. Unfortunately we were unable to use the kettle in the morning as the heating element looked extremely rusted and unsafe/dirty. The TV was not smart so watching netflix is not an option unfortunately. We did appreciate they had a charging station for EV cars and the location was just great. Good walk to the central resturaunts.

Not great. Terrible shower, hard bed. Folks in the room next door needed to borrow some toilet paper. Pool is much smaller than the photos make it look. Upstairs room nose came through. Noisy fridge. And not even that cheap.
