Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

8/10 Good
"The basic cabin was exactly what the name suggests: a basic space that fitted a bunk bed and single bed, a small table, small fridge, and enough floor space for your bag. Better than sleeping in a tent. But definitely not flash. Ours was joined to another room with just a locked door and very thin walls between us (we could easily hear everything the people in the adjoining room said) and we found the mattresses very thin and uncomfortable. But we were warm and dry."
