"Lovely well appointed hotel with great views and lake access. The pool was so warm and the hotel had everything needed for luxurious stay. Thankyou to the welcoming staff, would definately recommend staying at Reef Resort."
"I was surprised to actually see the size of our apartment. It was spacious. And well decorated. More surprising was the fact that Sacred Waters is on the lake edge side. I did not know beforehand that there can be hotels/apartments on that side too. When we went out of our apartment and walked directly on to the lake front walking track, we were so thrilled and happy. Outstanding."
"Beautiful spot looking directly across to lake Taupo.
Very friendly owners very nice and clean facilities.
And homemade cookies a very nice and personal touch.
Close to shops and restaurants.
Only downer is a small amount of mould on the ceiling in the bedroom
Probably due to the poximity of the hot tub.
All in all a positive experience lovely and clean i would definitely recommend a stay at the Gabels clean warm and very friendly"
"Clean and had everything we needed. Loved the retro themed decor and it did not feel like a motel. Tony and Di were friendly and their accommodation is reasonably priced and highly recommended! "
"Very good place to stay in Taupo. Clean, tidy, everything worked. It was well above our expectations for the cost. Very close to the centre and just across the road from the lake. I will definitely stay there again when next in Taupo."

"
"We had a room with a hot tub. It was great! Having your own private pool is perfect for a getaway.
We did notice some areas lacking in cleanliness, such as dust on skirting boards and behind things. The room was also cold when we arrived, which was not ideal in August.
Would stay again though.
