10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2025
This property was clean and well stocked. We appreciated that they had linens because not all New Zealand properties have them. We were close enough to walk to restaurants. It was quiet at night. The only thing I wished was that there was shampoo and body wash in the showers. Coming from further away, it’s nice to have those provided. We appreciated the nice big table and comfortable beds.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2022
This unit is road-side so very noisy, but in a great location for walking into Taupo (10 mins). 3 levels, garage on ground floor, kitchen/living and toilet on middle level with patio out the back, then 2 bedrooms and main bathroom (toilet and shower) on top level.
Washer and dryer on ground floor in garage.
Nice view of river from living room between front units, and panoramic view from top master bedroom.
Kitchen really well stocked with lots of dishes, and had oven, 2 dish drawers, electric hobs, toaster and kettle.
Patio is at back adjacent to the busy road, so very noisy, but a great sun trap as slightly below road level and has shade sail - mostly private.
Fans in 2 bedrooms on top level but no air conditioning - so bedrooms extremely hot in Jan (daytime temps around 30).
Owner keeps stuff in unit (1 car in double garage, drawers in main bedroom have clothes) - did not bother me.
Fantastic communal pool (heated) with a few deckchairs. Gated community, so felt secure.
Overall, unit not super clean. Sheets clean but stained, food stuck to some cutlery, fridge had pink gunk in veg drawer, tiles in shower need a good scrub.
Well located and well stocked if you don't mind a bit of noise (I got used to it) and are not bothered about complete cleanliness.
