This was an amazing place to stay whilst at Taupo. Convenient to get around but away from the main drag. I agree with the previous reviewer - would definitely benefit from a bbq being available. ##### Ben I.

One member of our group called it a castle! ##### jd P.

In particular there are two very large plate glass windows giving an unobstructed view. The property itself is presented beautifully, very clean & has everything you need. I can totally recommend this property. ##### Peter C. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Ervina W. 18 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great view and location View was amazing, beds are comfy, and great location. House could be cleaner, but acceptable. Master bathroom was smelly - seems like it might be a piping issue. Host sent us the wrong code and incorrect phone number when we checked in and we wasted a lot of time to try to get in. Fortunately host was responsive enough through the messaging system. ##### Ervina W.

We had a fantastic stay in Acacia Bay. Such a nice house with beautiful views. Would definitely stay again! We would recommend adding some appliances such as a BBQ, some oven trays for cooking, some tongs and maybe some cooking oil or spray. Other than that, it was great! ##### Nick O.
