The owners were really nice and very warm. They even received us with milk and cookies! The location by the lake is without doubt the best part of the establishment. We enjoyed a very nice afternoon walk by the lake, we definitely won't forget about that!

Everything was perfect. We wish we could've stayed longer! Just across the street from the lake, walkable distance from the rest of the town, super friendly hosts and exceptional property. It had literally everything we needed for a family of 3, and especially loved the bathroom with the heater and great amenities. The fresh bottle of milk was delicious as well!

    we didn't know when we booked about the roadworks on the road outside the motel, and were very happy the motel put us in a downstairs quiet room. Thank you!. The room was very comfortable, clean and spacious and without the roadworks would have had access to the lake across the road. We didn't see the staff but were given the code for the box the get our room key, very covid friendly

    Standard motel room with older-style fittings and with a good view of Lake Taupo, and quite comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the spa after walking the Tongariro Crossing. A pleasant walk into the centre of the town, and a good coffee van located just across the road and along a bit.
