Lake Escape

SaraRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Sarah was a wonderful host and her place felt like home. We had everything we needed for a week in Taupo. Close to a shopping market and the walking path on the lake, the place was quiet and peaceful.

Lake Front Luxury Taupo

JoanneRating, 5 stars12 months ago
Beautiful location. Great house for our two family home holiday. Stayed in April and the heating was lovely. The heated pool was a nice surprise. Plenty of private areas if you needed space. Having access to the walking track by the lake was fantastic. House is starting to need some love but still a very lovely stay.

Lakeside Landing

Kristin’s house was a welcoming and lovely, quiet sanctuary with everything we needed and plenty of room — we enjoyed it even if the midst of Cyclone Tam. Looking out over the lake was beautiful, and playing table tennis was an added bonus!

Lakeview Bliss - Acacia Bay - Stunning view

ZhenminRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The house is in a great location and the rooms are spacious enough. You can see Taupo Lake from the living room. The only minor drawback is that the towels provided in the bathroom are not clean enough. Some turn yellow, while others are covered in dust. But our family still likes it very much and we live happily.

Kinloch Lake House

AlanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
What a wonderful lake hideaway. A peaceful spot within walking distance to the charming Kinloch village. A well organised home away from home with everything you need - and so much room to just relax and unwind. We particularly loved the spacious upstairs loft area, the amazingly soft bed sheets and the peace and quiet. Thank you so much for accomodating us and for your friendly, prompt communications. We would love to return sometime ❤

Central Lake Hamilton

CraigRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Tracy's place is beautiful, modern and clean, with photo's being very accurate to reality. Right over the road from a lovely park around the lake. Plenty of roadside parking, and nothing in Hamilton too far away. Check-in via a code was easy. We had a very pleasant stay - thank you!

Modern Country Retreat

Chun HweeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Had an amazing stay here! Carmel and Daniel were incredibly warm and welcoming — they truly made us feel right at home. The house was spotless and super comfortable, perfect for relaxing and unwinding. Tucked away from the main road, it was wonderfully peaceful too. A big thank you to Daniel for taking the time to show us around their farm — such a unique and memorable experience, especially for someone from Singapore! One of the highlights was feeding apples to the sheep and goats, which was so much fun. Daniel even offered us some fruits and fresh eggs from his chickens to bring along for the rest of our New Zealand trip — such a kind gesture! This is definitely one of those rare Airbnbs I’d love to come back to, and next time, I’ll make sure to stay longer to soak in more of the farm life!

Taupo Acacia Escape with Amazing Close lake views.

PaulRating, 5 stars4 days ago
I thought it was a room under the hosts house however it turned out to be a lovely stand alone unit nicely decorated comfortable bed practical kitchen and lounge with lots of sun nice view of the lake and very peaceful I would highly recommend a stay at Irene's if you are in Taupo. It's a couple of minutes drive to the local dairy Bar and restaurant with nice food. And only about 5 or 6 minutes drive to the town centre

We loved our 12 day stay and didn't want to leave. Spacious rooms, high ceilings, heated bathroom floors, adequate kitchen, bifold doors opening into lovely private courtyard gardens and then there is the panoramic view of the lake. Oh and the delux spa!! What a treat. Luxurious accomodation. Value plus! We will be back.

Our repeat visit didn't disappoint. Everything you'll need to feel right at home has been thought of here. The veggie garden was abundant and we could help ourselves if we wished. Lots of thoughtful touches made us feel very welcome. The hosts are super friendly and lovely.

Rob’s lakeside retreat was wonderful!! It was clean and beautiful and perfect for our family! It was larger than we expected… plenty of room for the 5 of us to spread out. And the view was even better than we hoped! There was everything we could have wanted at our fingertips… robes, extra pillows, tea! Rob is extremely organized and helpful! We felt very lucky to stay at this property!
