Lake Taupo Views - lake front location

Relax in a bach environment with a retro feel on the edge of Lake Taupo.
Unit provides a comfortable stay with great views of the lake and mountains.
Take the opportunity to unwind in the small sunken garden and observe the
activities of fellow holiday makers from the deck. Follow the walkway around
the lake and explore the Taupo region from this very central location. During summer hire kayaks and paddleboards across the road (weather dependent), or take in the sun while lying reading your favourite book. A great destination to unwind. Property may not be suitable for young children due to staircase to mezzanine floor.
Special conditions:
While unit sleeps 6, it is available for a maximum of 4 people.
Off street parking available for 2 vehicles in designated clearly marked spaces

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$65.00 per stay); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels); However linen can be supplied for a cost if needed.

Great location and place
Great location, had all we needed. Wifi kept dropping out so entertainment was limited at night / early morning for kids whilst getting ready for bed/the day. Also don’t leave window open at night even slightly as bathroom got covered in midges.

Cozy Lake Stay
Good location, great view of the Lake, (just across the road). Property is exactly as shown on photos. Well equipped kitchen, maybe provide a lid of some sorts for the frying pan, also an idiot's guide of how to use the Haier stove top??? Great to have access to Netflix, thank you. For a Summer stay, highly recommend bug screens or something. We had to keep windows closed and it got a bit stuffy. Overall we loved our stay and would certainly return, thanks Lindsay.

Cute and cosy
Very impressed with our stay. Even though it is very retro looking, lots of modern touches to it. It was warm with the heater going and it held the heat well. The gaps between the bannisters were a little wide and my almost 5 year old could easily sneak through them, which was a worry upstairs. Apart from that, very comfortable stay and cosy on a winters night. Great communication from the owner too.

Perfect location with a retro vibe
We loved our stay here as the location is perfect. Just a short walk to town and a beautiful view of the lake. Our only complaint was that the listing said there was a barbecue. There was one, but it looked ancient and there was no propane.

Honest Review 5 night stay December 2023
I stayed at Lake Taupo Views for five nights 17 Dec to 22 Dec. The location was perfect, right across from the lake and within 10-15 mins walking distance to town. The property was well described. I found the bed I slept in very comfortable; the beds were described as double so I took linen for a double bed, but I think the bed may be a bit larger than a double (but smaller than a queen) as the double linen I took was a bit small. There was a variety of blankets/duvets, and with the hot nights is was good to have the option of a very light blanket/quilt rather than a duvet. The place was spotless, and had everything I needed - except for three things: Firstly the kitchen could benefit from a small sharp knife. Secondly, it was lovely to have the opportunity to sit outside at the table and still have a great view of the lake but there was no outdoor umbrella to provide some shade from the direct sun. Thirdly, I had missed that the listing did not state the inclusion of air conditioning. I discovered on the first night that from about 6pm onwards, large numbers of midges and small mosquitos came into the house through any available open door or window. So with doors and windows needing to be shut, and with no air conditioning, evenings and nights inside were rather uncomfortable. There were 2 small fans but one didn't work, so the one working fan earned it's keep. Would I stay again? DEFINITELY, but in winter, and I'd take my own small kitchen knife! Grateful thanks.

Close to the beach
Good location, nice walk or short drive to the centre of town. The property was well provisioned in the kitchen, though a sharp knife would have been nice. It looked as though the last occupants contents were left in the fridge. Biggest issue for us were the beds. The doubles were pretty uncomfortable for two adults and the bunk bed was squeeky and wobbly.

This property was everything that was advertised, excellent location and had everything we needed. In future I’d advice guests to leave windows closed as we had a lot of bugs get into the unit (host could leave a small message about this) Other recommendation - please provide rubbish bags Over all this was a lovely property and we really enjoyed our stay.
