Bed and Breakfast in Tauhara Forest

"*The Cove Taupo — 5/5* Stayed here recently and it was exactly what we needed for a getaway. *The room: Clean, a little outdated but comfortable no view as the room was on the opposite side, Lake Taupo is the real deal. Big windows, comfy bed, and everything worked exactly as it should. *Location*: Perfect spot if you want quiet but still close to town. 5 min drive to the lakefront and cafes. Easy parking right outside which made unloading a breeze. *Staff & service*: Super friendly and low fuss. Check-in was quick and they gave solid local tips for food and walks without being pushy. *The little things*: Fast wifi, decent coffee setup in the room, and there is an outdoor area that was great for a sunset drink. Place felt well maintained, not tired like some lake motels. Only heads up: it’s popular, so book ahead if you want a lake-facing room in summer. Overall, great value, great spot, would stay again. If you’re heading to Taupo and want somewhere relaxed with a view, this is it."

"Used to love coming here unfortunately its gone downhill since ny last visit. Room had a bad smell the whole time and there wasnt much space at all the bed just fits.. shower was cheap and nasty floor kept creaking. Curtains dont even shut fully and they themselves looked like someone had just converted a black bedsheet into curtains. I will not be staying here again."
