10/10 Excellent

We stayed here for 2 nights in the luxury studio. We had stunning views out to the lake, great to enjoy from the balcony. Room was well equipped and had plenty of space. There was a regular pool and also a geo-thermally heated pool which was really relaxing and amazingly hot!! Hosts were really friendly and helpful with advising on activities to do whilst we were there. (would defientley recommend a kayak trip to see the mauri carvings). It is quite a walk down to the main part of Taupo - would...
