About this property

Kaimanawa Lookout - Omori Holiday Home

  • Sparkling Lake Taupo framed in the windows - this is the backdrop you need for your holiday. Its all in the name - welcome to Kaimanawa Lookout!

    This four-bedroom holiday home with 4 Queen sized beds and 2 single beds is spread across two levels and the top level is where the magic happens. Views pouring in from the east, setting the perfect relaxing tone for your escape to the Lake.

    Wake up to a fresh cup of coffee from the coffee machine and enjoy brunch with your group or family as you plan your lakeside adventure for the day. Comfortable, warm and well-equipped, Kaimanawa Lookout is ready to host you and your family or group - sleeping up to 10 guests.

    Just a short bush walk to the lakefront at beautiful Pukawa Bay. You are less than a 10-minute walk to the Omori Store. The Whakapapa ski field is only a 40-minute drive away. Or enjoy a hot thermal swim at Tokaanu, only 10 minutes from Omori. You'll also be a 15-minute drive to the Turangi township, and 40 minutes to Taupo.

    Fire up the BBQ on the sundeck, pour a cold glass of wine and sit back and enjoy your view - Kaimanawa Lookout awaits!

Our stay

Our over all stay at the property was great apart from being cold, the property would need a heatpump down stairs also the Fire place upstairs being in the wall is not enough for the size of the property hopefully something is done for the next winter.
