Amazing family bach
We had a fantastic stay at this family bach in Taupo. The house was spacious, clean, and equipped with all the necessary facilities. The host was excellent, providing great communication throughout. The property was in immaculate condition, exactly as described and shown in the photos. Highly recommend this place, especially for families with kids. The two living rooms provided ample space for everyone to enjoy.

Nothing but positive things to say
Beautiful house that felt like a home away from home. Very spacious so we didn’t feel like we were falling over each other. Master bedroom with separate lounge upstairs which was perfect for our daughter and partner and their 10 week old baby. The house was spotlessly clean and Lorraine was amazing to deal with. Thank you so much, loved our stay in your beautiful home 😍
