Beautiful place to stay right on the lake with stunning views. Really nicely decorated, clean and comfortable rooms with everything you need including a comfy bed and well stocked kitchenette. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Great location - easy drive into town, but also a nice walk if you wanted a bit longer walk. Will definitely stay again - thank you!

This was one of our favorite stops. We loved our room looking out over the lake and appreciated the jacuzzi tub after doing the Tongariro Crossing hike. The room was clean and was a short drive to shopping and restaurants.
