Loved by Gables Lakefront Motel guests
"We were personally led to a beautiful room with full views of the lake and shown through the room which included a hot tub."
"The spa pool was the hottest best spa we have ever had in a motel before - and we had it all to ourselves."
"Perfectly located with wonderful views of the Mountains and lake."
“This lakefront resort immediately struck me as ideal for families or couples wanting both activity and stunning views. The location is superb, walking distance to Taupo's main attractions, yet the apartments themselves feel private and well-equipped, with the option of a personal hot pool. From what I gather, the emphasis here is on both comfort and experience, placing guests within easy reach of nature while ensuring a relaxing stay.”
