"T was very welcoming and lovely to deal with and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Little Haven. This was a girls weekend away and my friend and I got upgraded to a 3 bedroom unit so we could both have a queen bed each, which was very appreciated! The units have everything you need and are very cosy for a winter stay. Also, easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place"

Top Craters of the Moon Hotel Reviews

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, thank you 😉"

Wairakei Resort Taupo by Accor

10/10 Excellent

"One of the better hotels to stay at in Taupō. While parts of the property could benefit from a little TLC, the friendly and helpful staff more than made up for it. The amenities were great, and the ample parking was very convenient. The buffet breakfast was outstanding, with a great selection and excellent quality. Overall, a very enjoyable stay, and I'd happily return."

River View Retreat Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning property, beautifully clean and perfect for a family. Travelling with 6 adults and a child, we found this lovely house provided an abundance of space, gorgeous views directly overlooking the Waikato River and an immediate feeling of luxurious relaxation. An easy 20 minute stroll along the river to town and the lakefront, and being in a private court it is super quiet. While the house is not in the middle of town, which we knew when we booked, the location is so picturesque and the house so comfortable that we had no issues with needing to drive 5 minutes to the CBD if the weather was poor. The kitchen had everything we needed and love the inclusion of cooking essentials like oil, herbs/spices and quality cookware. We visited during Spring with cool nights, and used the thoughtfully provided plug in heaters in the bedrooms, with the fireplaces and once we worked out how it worked, the gas heating kept it cosy in the living areas. We loved our stay and will be back without a doubt - highly recommend staying here if you have the chance. "
