Hilton Lake Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Great vacation spot and fantastic service."

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Will be back."

Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, had everything we needed , beds were comfy very comfy , had all the amenities including air con and running hot water which catered to me and my family of 4. Very quiet and you even get views of Lake Taupo from the room . For the price we paid we got more than we bargained for 👏. Props to the house keepers whom work hard day in day out to get these rooms looking the way they do for guests. Only downside is when you’re going to the pools be mindful it’s A steep walk down and then back up once you are done swimming . That’s the biggest downfall with De Bretts , and run down."
