Definitely NOT a two bedroom aptmt as king size bed in the lounge takes up all that space. People staying in attached house open/closed garage door constantly from 6am onwards which is directly below the loft apartment and the garage is not sound proof! Very noisy! Good selection of kitchen amenities and tools etc but no tea towel! And lovely shower and bathroom 😊

Secret Hideaway

The location is so secret we couldn't find it and couldn't access the booking using my phone to find the address. Fluked finding a number for Bookabach and got the help we needed. ie the address and a pin for the door lock. However, once there the apartment is beautifully clean, still very new and well appointed.

The view is nice but I wouldn’t say “jaw dropping”

The place was very nice, modern, clean. Easy to get to and comfortable. The view of the lake is nice but not jaw dropping since you have to look past rows of houses to see the lake. Would definitely stay again though.

Great lake views

We arrived at night, and the unit was welcoming and warm. The beds are comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. Can i suggest some new pillows please? While the pillow cases and protective covers were good, the pillows themselves had seen better days and were flat and/or a bit lumpy in one instance. I would also suggest the tatty plastic table cloth be updated. Thank you for having us, your unit was just right for the three of us. Kind regards, Kaylene Young

Great little place to stay

Very tidy studio with good amenities only 10 minutes drive from town. The studio is kept very clean and seemed quite new. The bedroom setup is a little unusual with queen bed in lounge and 2 singles in the bedroom. Overall lovely stay in Taupo at a very reasonable price.
