Very friendly hosts however for the money we were very disappointed with the room, it may have had a spa bath which stopped bubbling at 9.30pm but as for the rest not impressed. Old everything needing a total make over, they maybe in the throws of doing this motel up but i certainly won't recommend paying $140.00 a night for this place., $100 would be absolute max if that.. Ps views great and hosts lovely. 5PAUL DWIGHT - Nov 16, 2012 Travelbug verified review

Great value lake front family lodge! the lovely lady in the office was very helpful, she recommended us a very good fish carter! we caught 5 fishes, but we only kept one for next day's dinner. We stayed for 2 days, it was very quiet and peaceful on the first day, but the second day was a bit noisy because of the new coming neighbors. The toilet and shower is in downstairs, not so convenient for people who sleep in upstairs. Overall, this motor lodge is good for family getting together, it has 1-3 bedrooms to suit different people groups.

Great views but seriously needs updating. A bigger television with better reception would be beneficial.

The welcome was not quite as good as we would have liked. Friendly enough but rather austere in the rules and regulations re dog and ourselves, a gentler approach might have been better. In the book it said cleaners would come in between 10 and 12, but came at around 2 ish when having lunch but no problem.

Thanks for your comments. Sorry about our strict rules with first time guests and their pets. They are necessary, and we find 99% are perfect with no problem, as in your case. Staff away sick pushed us back a bit on Saturday, so apologies for the late service. Hopefully see you again soon!

Fantastic stay, very warm and friendly reception by the managers, the pool was a nice (and very welcome!) component of the room. Also, I was struck that while facilities weren't the newest, they were meticulously clean and in good condition - obviously the result of years of care and good management. Great place to stay - one suggestion I'd make is that I'd be happy to pay extra for a greater choice of Sky Channels.

Great place to stay, will be back next time we're in Taupo. Nice units, friendly people... the hot tub in the room was awesome. Lake view was lovely too :-)

Great location & the hosts were just brilliant, going well beyond expectations with their helpfulness. Furnishings were a bit tired (lounge suite, towels etc) but consider good value for money & will stay again thanks to the super helpful hosts.

Thanks, we are constantly upgrading, just finished carpeting all units, and appreciate your comments.
