Nice property, but no internet, no smart TV, and moths

The owners have done a lovely job furnishing the property. It's near the Westside of Lake Taupo. Great fishing and very nice beach, but there a couple of issues. The property lacks internet! It's the 21st century, not having internet is like not having indoor plumbing or electricity. Without the internet, there's no smart TV. The owners told me (after I checked-in) that they didn't realize it was important, and that people could use their cell phones. I'm an international traveler, and don't have a NZ cell plan as all prior properties in NZ have had internet. At the very bottom of the listing, it said no Wi-Fi, but that doesn't mean no internet. They've spent a small fortune decorating the place and no internet seems out of step. Lastly, the unit gets very hot, and when I would arrive home in the afternoon, I had to open the slider and front door. This invited in the moths as the sun set. Every night, I would get attacked by moths. Trust me, after the first night this got old. The property is very nice, but the owners need to install internet and find a way to cool the property. If they fix these issues, it could be a great place to stay.

Aunque la casa es muy bonita y amplia... no dispone de Aire Acondicionado y siendo verano hacía mucho calor. Tampoco dispone de ningún armario ni de Wifi. Muchas camas pero sólo un cuarto de baño. El precio no fue precisamente barato, con lo que sinceramente no lo recomiendo a menos que sea un viaje en invierno. Por otro lado, hay que hacer un master para las instrucciones de la casa. Un manual de 50 páginas....

2 week Family summer holiday

Really great location - close to lots of lovely tracks and walking distance to the boat ramp and river mouth and the cafe/winery at Kuratau. Compact, modern and very tidy property. Has everything you need for a relaxing break. Owners are great communicators. We had a fantastic summer holiday with our 17 and 20 year old kids. We got lots of use of the BBQ and great deck and outdoor area. Ideal for a summer vacation.
