It was very new, clean, modern and well equipped. It is in a great location - just a short walk to the lake, shops, cafes and restaurants. Would definitely stay there again if we are in Taupo. ##### Paul C. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin S. 24 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Close to everything in Taupo Nice property with solid amenities within walking distance of restaurants, shopping and Lake Taupo. House is modern and spacious with lovely views from the living and kitchen (second level) areas. The bikes in the garage were a plus - we were able to take a long bike ride one of the days. The only negatives were a lack of any personal touch - this is a corporate managed residence - there were many rules on both the lone access email we received and a large book of additional rules within the house - some of which were applicable to our property and others which were not. Other than that, terrific stay without any real interaction to speak of other than all of those pesky rules to guide us ;-) ##### Kevin S.
