The accommodation might look a bit outdated, but it was so comfortable with a hot swimming pool outside our door and an area to sit outside the room, lounge kitchen were separate to bedroom all cooled by air-conditioner; very very pleasant and relaxing. A short drive to town along the beautiful coast or you could walk, to a tonne of eateries and shops. Great stay

What a fab view. Unlike most others in Taupo, THIS motel is on the lakefront, not across the road. We opted for a lake view unit, and it was wothwhile. And to top it all off, it is basically part of the Millenium Hotel next door, so we could have ordered room service and used the gym! A shame we were only passing through, so only one night. Highly recommended.
