Fantastic spot to chill
The apartment was just what we needed for a couple of days, and the cinema screen in the main room blew my son's mind :)

Nice location and comfortable stay
Traversing the north island, we stayed in Taupo two nights. The studio was easy to find and in a nice location. Check in was smooth. The place was clean, comfortable and met our needs. Thank you!
