Amazing stay in Taupo. Loved the thermal pool and used it every day. Great view of the Lake. Would recommend to family & friends
2-night trip

10/10

Great view. Really liked the layout of the apartment, the balcony, and the walk ability to nearby restaurants and the lake. The only downside is there's no elevator so you have to walk up to the second floor with your luggage, but it wasn't really a big deal. Very cute pool but not very large.
