### Taupo Thermal Motel & Spa - Adults Only

6/10 Okay

"We were in a One Bedroom Thermal Spa. The price you're paying is for a Private Thermal Pool in your Room. Yes it's a little dated but it is Tidy, Clean, & Functional. Staff were absolutely wonderful and attentive."

10/10 Excellent

"Great motel with lovely facilities and everything you need for a lovely stay in Taupo. The location is perfect for a great view over the lake. We stayed as a family of 4 in 2 bedroom apartment which was really good choice for us. The apartment was spacious, clean and with perfect amenities. We used the outdoor bench a To sit and relax and have a lovely meal by the lake. The communication with the motel was perefect with everything felt so organised for our stay to be great. We look forward to stay with Acacia motel again."

### Oasis Beach Motel 

10/10 Excellent

"What a fab view. Unlike most others in Taupo, THIS motel is on the lakefront, not across the road. We opted for a lake view unit, and it was wothwhile. And to top it all off, it is basically part of the Millenium Hotel next door, so we could have ordered room service and used the gym! A shame we were only passing through, so only one night. Highly recommended."
