A Place to Retreat...

We had a such a welcoming surpise on arrival. This home is hugely comfortable and spacious with all the amenities and comforts of home. With dismal weather following us, it was a wonderful retreat! It's a shame our stay was so short! The host promptly replied to any questions and queries.

Amazing family bach

We had a fantastic stay at this family bach in Taupo. The house was spacious, clean, and equipped with all the necessary facilities. The host was excellent, providing great communication throughout. The property was in immaculate condition, exactly as described and shown in the photos. Highly recommend this place, especially for families with kids.
