The Loft is five min drive from Taupo CDB and five hundred metres walk to a great bar and restaurant,The Bay. Our rooms are spacious with very comfortable beds. We have just had new carpet installed throughout the entire property and the result is amazing. Our garden has several seating areas to enjoy a cup of tea, or a glass of wine.
We really enjoy our home and garden and look forward to sharing it with you. We think Lake Taupo is a special place and look forward to advising you on all the wonderful things to do and see. Our particular passions are snow skiing, mountain biking and hiking. We hope to make your stay in this area special and memorable.
The Loft is in a very special part of Acacia Bay, Taupo with beautiful homes and gardens. We back on to a reserve with native trees and great bird life. Lovely beaches for swimming and a great cafe and art gallery, L'Arte Cafe is a short distance away There are many lovely walks, and bike trails for the energetic.
