United KingdomBeautiful place, right on the Lake. We had a lakefront studio and the room was beautiful, immaculate, comfortable and had a great view from the balcony. The whole place was beautiful and the staff we met friendly and helpful. The food was the best dinner we have had since visiting NZ!

From
South KoreaFirst of all, it was clean and the bedroom was cozy, so I slept well. There are trees and grass in the backyard, so I had coffee in the morning and rested comfortably. There was a good space for cooking, so I could cook delicious food in the evening. The bathroom was so clean and nice. The interior of the house was so pretty that I wanted to stay longer. If I have to go to the area next time, I'd like to reserve this accommodation again.

Very nice and functional unit, great view of Lake Taupo. The owner was very pleasant and we appreciate how we was able to accommodate a last minute request with our dates due to closure of the Tongariro Alpine crossing for a few days.

Everything was excellent, except the Centennial Golf club...
Everything was excellent, except the Centennial Golf club pro on the morning of Sat 25th Oct. He did not listen . We had prebooked 2 weeks prior as a group of 5, which was confirmed at the time of booking then again on the day by the lady in the proshop.(no mention of not being able to play as a 5!) We were halfway through the first 9 holes and suddenly a man appeared introducing himself as the pro, and he was approaching us to tell us we were actually breaking protocol by playing in a group of 5. I tried to explain we had prebooked and confirmed 2 weeks ago as a 5 and then an hour ago registered at the proshop as a group of 5, and nothing was advised at that time, she gladly took our $300.00 with no mention of protocol! Just a heads up to the pro on the day. If you are going to enforce any protocol, then make sure you and your staff are all on the same page and your paying guests are advised at the time of booking. This will save any further embarrassing situations for you (the pro) and your club staff. It will also help your guests to have a less stressful experience knowing they have been fully informed of any local club rules

Spent 8 nights at four Okahune motel/apartments in early October. The town centre and the railway station front are the major leisure venues. I have taken a lot of photo/video streams in town and along the road to Turoa ski field. Accommodation and F&B services are above average, and many selections. Many local activities(rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking and most importantly, snow sports) are available, and the tourist info centre is well located, and the staff there are helpful and welcoming. picturesque town with snowy mountain, stream and falls to visit.

We were quite surprised that the town was looking so deserted compared to just couple of years ago when we last visited. Many of the shops on the main street (and just about all the ones on the side streets) were unoccupied and boarded up.
Having only stayed one night, we didn't have much time to do more than walk up and down the main street to see the shops, but the town has quite a run down feel to it.
The activities run by the Forgotten World Motel were mostly not operating at this time of the year (September). If you plan to do the adventure activities offered by the Motel, then visit from mid-October onwards when they are fully operating.

Unfortunately the unit we stayed in was infested with ants which were in the bathroom, kitchen and bedroom. We awoke to find them in our beds and crawling all over us. Most unpleasant experience. I advised the manager but he didn't really apologise and I believe he was aware of the situation. His response was that he would need to get a pest controller in. I felt he didn't believe us, but we showed the cleaners and they were shockewd.

The empty Chateau is a shame but we hope that will be sorted soon. The neglected buildings in the village on both sides of Bruce Road is not a good look. Hopefully they will be restored and have tenants soon. We understand Covid and the uncertainly around the sale of the ski field had a big influence but we hope that it would be fixed soon

My baby and I stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed everything about Waiouru. We were at the Oasis motel which is across the road from the Z gas station and next to a Diner,bakery, bar & bottle store which breaks off from the motel but still far away from the rooms. A bit secluded but love how everything’s so close and the nice cold weather.

The location is lovely, the clean room very tastefully done with an excellent bathroom. Self serve breakfast is provided in the room so no need to pack up and then drive to get food. The check out time of 11am allows for a relaxing morning especially after a long drive like we had.
Kinloch is nearby on the lakeside with a general store. Worth a walk and a swim. The quiet side of Lake Taupo.
