If you are looking for a 3br, 2 bathroom home that suits three couples, I highly recommend this property. It's close to town and all three bedrooms (one with en suite) have couple-sized beds. This is a rarity in Taupō! This was an ideal, cosy base for a family birthday celebration.

harbour view at nukuhau

Super clean, fantastic boat harbour and lake views, excellent facilities, spacious living areas, extra comfy beds. Nice central workable kitchen with outlook too. Close to town but quiet and pleasant, very comfortable, everything to hand. Warm in minutes with heat pump. Stairs might be a drawback for some, driveway a bit tricky at first. I would recommend this property highly.
