My sisters and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay in Tourist flat number 1.The reception staff are warm and friendly and do a fantastic job of welcoming everyone.This unit looks out on the lake for a wonderful view.The heat pump keeps the unit warm. The large TV also gives an option should the weather be unkind.We will be back.

We recently stayed one night at the DeBrett's Holiday Park and were quite pleased with our experience there. We would have happily stayed more nights at DeBrett's, enjoying both our cabin rooms as well as the nice thermal pools and spa they have within their grounds, had time allowed. We availed of a NZ$99 special that included a basic cabin... More

Took advantage of the stay 2 free 1 night weekday package for powered sites that included a day pass to the thermal pools. Very good value indeed! Facilities like the kitchen, showers, lounge were clean and always kept tidy. The cafe serves good eggs benedict. We really enjoyed our time at the thermal pools -- a relaxing end to a... More

We had accommodation for 2 nights in a superior lodge which was very comfortable, beautifully clean and warm with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. There is a lovely outlook from the lodges although a full view of the lake and mountains is blocked by the 'villa' lodges. The hot pools were an added bonus and the staff in... More

We stayed for 2 nights here and really enjoyed our stay here, it’s a little outside of the main part of Lake Taupo, probably too far to walk but its ok to drive and there are lots of places to park in the main town. We went to the Thermal Spa that is on site on our 2nd day and... More

I stayed in a two bedroom villa at De Brett's in late April 2012, as part of a larger party. I was very impressed with their villa accommocation. Each unit was spacious and very well maintained. While "resort" guests don't get free entry into the hot thermal pool complex, entry was discounted, and it was possible to get a pass... More

We had two nights as part of hubby's birthday weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed it - staff very friendly - pools great. Had a half price deal with WOTIF - a Superior Lodge. Last time I stayed in a Lodge - you had good lake views - now they have built Villas in front. You can still see the Lake in between... More

Acccommodation was great - good views was clean, heat pump and underfloor heating were wonderful and the hot pools were great to relax in at night while the... More

We enjoyed the night we spent here - the villa was clean and well equipped with underfloor heating and two heatpumps .Plus the toilet was separate from the bathroom. We had a half price deal with wotif which was good value, we wouldnt pay full price as the villa's are very close together and we had a camper van parked... More
