Wonderful stay

We were in Taupo for 3 nights for the Equifest show. We were so happy to check into a place that was exactly as described, lovely and clean, well appointed and very comfortable. Nowadays you never really know what you will get so it was really lovely to find such a beautiful honest home. Thanks so much :)

Week Stay to Participate in the Half Ironman

Family trip to New Zealand for one daughter to participate in the world championship half iron man race that was hosted in Taupō. We visited area beaches and attractions from the convenient Beach Tree Cottage location. The kitchen had everything we needed to be able to enjoy home cooked meals when we wanted. We all enjoyed the sunny deck and wonderful garden. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home with us.

We wpuld recommend this home to anyome wishing for a central location in Taupo. Bonus being able to watch to rugby on sky and the kids and adults loved the electric blankets.

Flawless home with everything you need and more.

We were so surprised walking into this home as to how spacious and updated it is. Out of all the places we stayed during our 2 week trip, moving every few days, this was by far the nicest and most comfortable home. In a lovely and peaceful neighborhood close to town, we were greeted with beautiful welcome gifts in the counter, there is a good sized, private back yard and the spacious, cozy living room was appreciated along with special additions like a Bluetooth stereo and oscillating stand up fans in each bedroom. Mattresses were comfortable and communication and responses from the owner were prompt. I can’t think of a single negative thing to say about this home. Wish we could have stayed longer.
