Fantastic Managers Annie and Mick, they couldn't have been more pleasant to deal with, the position on the Lake is unbelievable, and a short trip into town with plenty of Restaurants to choose from. Best part was sitting on the back deck enjoying the extraordinary view of the lake after a day out and having a cold refreshment. Will definitely stay at the Retreat when next in Taupo.

Loved the location being so close to the lake. Anthony and Bron made our stay even more enjoyable as they are so friendly and obliging. The little extra touches were appreciated.

We had an amazing stay at Michelle and Peter's place! Our family spent two wonderful days there, and despite the not-so-great weather in Taupo, the farm was still incredibly beautiful even on gloomy days. The three little puppies were absolutely adorable and added so much joy to our visit. The apartment was tastefully decorated, and the bedding was extremely comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. We also had the pleasure of visiting Michelle's pottery studio and came home with four lovely cups. A huge thank you to Michelle for the thoughtful gift; it truly made our experience even more special. Overall, it was a delightful getaway, and we can't recommend it highly enough!

It was a quick trip for me to get my bike fixed. I had a booking in the afternoon and went there directly. When I book a hostel, I always look for a bed with a curtain because I need privacy when I sleep. The bunk bed is comfy! The room size matches the number of guests (maximum 6 people). There is an ensuite bathroom in the dorm, but there’s also a central bathroom as well. It’s really clean! One thing I love the most is how functional the central bathroom is — there are two hangers and a shelf for my belongings. This is always a problem in some hostels because I never know where to put my clothes, towel, and shower set. The staff are really nice; she explained all the areas to me. The kitchen is clean too. I think it was almost full because I went on a weekend, but it wasn’t chaotic like many other places. If I have a solo trip to Taupo, I will definitely book this hostel again.
