Great location, great shower, great beds!

I’m so happy to be able to share my wonderful home with others and supplement my pension 😀 The AirBnb rooms are separate from my part of the home. There’s 2 rooms and a bathroom.

There is a small step up to the shower so take care coming out of it. You will enjoy beautiful Taupo. 😎
