A magic place to stay, and I would really like to try it in Winter, in one of the rooms that have a fireplace. Needed a place to escape from the real world for a night. Was great waking and looking out to see farms and trees

We stayed at Huka Falls resort as part of a family wedding. We had a 2 bedroom unit to ourselves over the back of the site. I was impressed with how quiet it was the whole of our visit despite the fact they where fully booked. Our unit was clean and roomy and very pleasant. It had a spa bath... More

When I sat down to write this review I was quite surprised by the recent negative reviews. The unit we had ( a cottage with separate bedroom and living area) was in very good condition and well set up. It was a very cold night in Taupo but there was adequate heating in the living area. We initially thought that... More

The cottages look lovely on the outside but we had a very small studio and were surprised to have been given twin beds. On request they were pushed together but we could feel the ridge where they joined and the pillows needed replacing - very soft and thin. The decor is clean but modest and tired and I think it...

We stayed here for 4 nights over the Easter weekend 2013, we booked a studio room. The room we were given was effectively the second bedroom of a timber framed cottage, the room had a locked door which connects and can open out into the main bedroom and living space. We awoke on our first morning at 7am to the... More

We stayed here one night on our way to Wellington. Disappointed really. From the outside the rooms are incredibly cute cottages but inside they are very run down and need some TLC. The rooms were very hot as it was scorching hot in taupo. We asked staff if there were any portable fans that could be put in our room... More

One week out from our wedding we found out our wedding organiser had left! As you can imagine it was panic stations on our behalf. We met with the owners the weekend before & run through what we wanted & had been promised. We left resonably at ease but still very skeptical how well our big day would run. All... More

We stayed here for our one year wedding anniversary and found it to be a very tidy, simple place to stay. It is quite basic in nature. We were happily upgraded when we mentioned that we were celebrating :) Service was great, polite and efficient. My only complaint would be that our room had a sticky floor in the kitchen... More

Whilst the Staff were very polite ad helpful this venue was a big disappointment, the properties are in need of a major makeover and need to be better cleaned. Noise is a big problem if you are in a unit that links with another unit. Our next door visitors arrived late at night and they might as well have been... More
