"A lovely warm welcome by our hosts. Great conversation and a wonderful dinner cooked and served to perfection.
Garth and Angie made my birthday celebration visit really special and both Jacqui and I highly recommend Whakaipo Lodge for their excellence in all aspects."
"The staff and reception are friendly. Check in is fast. We have 3 adults and 1 kid in my family. They offer us a free upgrade to a much larger and luxury room because they said the room we booked may be too small for 4 people. They are so kind and considerate."
"The small and cozy building makes things feel personal and Di is a fabulous host. Very accommodating and the coffee is hot! The little kitchenette is so nice to have when you’re traveling "
"You'd be hard pressed finding another property with better value for money. The property itself is even better than the pictures, you're located right across the road from the beautiful lake with views of Mt Ruapehu, all amenities are easily accessible, the rooms are spacious, peaceful, clean and in excellent condition. We were lucky enough to have a room with a spa - perfect way to unwind and warm up.
Best of all is the service - the two owners are the nicest, most thoughtful people. Prior to...
"This is a fantastic place to stay on a visit to Taupo. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and modern. The location is convenient near the town centre. We had a two bedroom unit that was perfect for a family of four. Would definitely recommend."
"Definitely not your standard “motel” stay! Beautiful, thoughtfully appointed rooms, spotlessly clean and lovely hosts. Great location in the centre of Taupo and walking distance to an endless number of restaurants. We had a two-bedroom suite with a spa bath, and it was more than comfortable for our family of four. The room would have been suitable for a far longer stay than we had time for. Highly recommended."
