Housed in a building dating from 2014, this apartment is 800 metres from the Lake Taupo Hole in One Challenge and from town where guests can enjoy a number of cafes, restaurants and shops.

    This is an old hotel awaiting the perfect renovation, but the price represents that. You can't expect to see a modern five star resort for this price. It is located in a beautiful, very quiet area, the room is spacious and has everything you need. Plus a swimming pool and walking tracks nearby. Truly a holiday home away from busy life. But if you prefer modern design - don't go.

    The Lakeview Villa was lovely and really spacious. Our family could spread out in it and not feel on top of one another. It was lovely and warm in winter with the underfloor heating and heat pump. The kitchen had all that we needed. It had beautiful view of the lake and on a fine day you could see the snow capped mountains of Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngaruahoe.
