Stylish Cottage - Walk to Lake *No Service Fee*
It was a great clean place and I would stay there but Airbnb stop inundating my email for a survey. I don't so surveys, the only time I do them is if the place was bad. But the constant emails for surveys is really annoying.

Two Mile Retro Retreat - pet friendly
Jacqui was a awesome host. Communicated very well, the house had a nice vintage vibe with lots of space and really tidy. Will not hesitate to stay again next time we're in town.

Relaxing holiday home close to town and lake
Kelly was an amazing host for my family travelling to Taupo for a funeral thank you for being so accommodating my family loved it! Cheers

Lake Front Luxury Taupo
Beautiful location. Great house for our two family home holiday. Stayed in April and the heating was lovely. The heated pool was a nice surprise. Plenty of private areas if you needed space. Having access to the walking track by the lake was fantastic. House is starting to need some love but still a very lovely stay.

The Lake House at Waikaremoana
Our family of 2 adults and 4 teenagers stayed here after an overnight tramp- Edward’s place was 5 star luxury!! The shower is awesome, there’s a washing machine and dryer, a SMEG dishwasher, SMEG oven and a fridge that makes ice! All the appliances and fittings are high-quality. Everything feels really nice. Lovely beds and linen. Awesome view from the deck. Essentials like oil, vinegar, tea, coffee and coffee plunger are in the well kitted out kitchen. We enjoyed cooking a hearty meal playing cards and watching a movie. It is minutes from Lake Waikaremoana great walk start or finish- perfect location.!

Treetops Retreat - Tranquil and Central ✔
such a good place to stay will be staying again that's for sure

Modern Paradise In Wharewaka Family Friendly
Here's a sample review: "Wonderful stay! Host was very responsive. The property was spotlessly clean and perfectly maintained, felt like home. The neighborhood was fantastic, with great local amenities just a short walk away. Plus, being close to the hot pools was a lovely bonus! The location was super convenient, making it easy to explore everything the area had to offer. Highly recommend!" Feel free to customize it based on your experience!

Riverside holiday home. 15 min to Taupō.Sleeps 13.
This is an awesome home. Well furnished and the kitchen has every item you need to cook up a feast. Very spacious and the swim in the river was great. We will be back one day.
Lake-access apartment rentals

Modern 3 Bedroom Taupo apartment
I highly recommend this beautiful apartment, fantastic views, plenty of space for six adults, plenty of secure parking and within walking distance to the lake a cafe across the road. Well presented and had everything that is needed.

Nice 2 Bed Rm @ 2Mile Bay Taupo
Beautiful modern and clean apartment conveniently located providing privacy and all day sun. The aircon came in handy too. Very well equipped kitchen including condiments, gladwrap etc and various cooking and serveware. Laundry facilities were also well equipped including a laundry basket, pegs and clothes line. Also included board games which the kids loved. Pool was perfect for the summer heat. Beds, blankets and pillows were very comfortable. We will definitely be back.

Lakefront Apartment - Heated Pool, Hot Tub & Views
Amazing lake side apartment - the pool was a game changer it was heated, the kids had multiple swims each day. Great location, tidy apartment and super comfy beds - we will be back :)

Bright & Stylish, Walk to shops ,cafes and lake.
Very cosy home. I wish I could stay longer.

Waterside Apartment
We had a great stay at Pam’s house in Taupo. The house was the perfect setup for our family of 4 with plenty of space to holiday in comfort. The house was very modern, clean and spacious - very comfortable beds and equipped with everything you need to holiday away from home. Location was great - easy to get to and from town with just a short car trip away. From the house you can also spend time eating outside in the garden or walking down the steps to the river - great for children. Thank you for the warm welcome and having us stay. A place we will happily book again.

Lakefront Location
Lovely location overlooking Lake Taupo and into the sunset. Spacious deck to relax, eat and enjoy the view. Helpful responsive host. Very clean and well equipped living areas. Lovely Millennium Hotel restaurant right across the street. Great location for a relaxing break.

Waimahana - Luxury By The Lake
Great place to stay love how close it was to the lake! Would recommend :)

The Mooring - Taupo Waterfront Apartment
Lovely place to stay. Within walking distance of Taupo shops and restaurants. Beautiful and peaceful outlook and very quiet. Beds were all comfortable and it had everything we needed for a long weekend. Jan & Greg were really responsive. Highly recommend to anyone coming to Taupo.
Lake-access cottage rentals

Hackfalls Arboretum Cottage
Kirsty is absolutely awesome! Her communication was excellent, and everything about the stay exceeded my expectations. I’m honestly a bit jealous and almost don’t want to share this gem of a location because it’s so perfect—I’m afraid too many people will discover it and ruin the peaceful vibe! I had an amazing 5 days here. The cottage is incredibly peaceful, right next to the lake, with reliable internet and no phone signal distractions. If you’re looking to write a book, set goals, do research, or just recharge, this is hands down the best place ever. I’m definitely coming back!

The Taupo Cottage. Lake views & fully renovated
Lovely little place to stay with beautiful views. Sven was a fantastic host

Lake House
Great place to stay right by the lake. Easy to get to Taupo from the house.

Taupo Retro Bach
We really enjoyed our stay here. Great location, walking distance to lake front. We loved the bach feel and admired the decor - ample books, DVDs and family board games to keep you entertained, and a classic table tennis table! Clean, tidy home to enjoy.
