This was such a good stay - we just needed a stopover on the way to Auckland and wanted to swim in the hot pools to break up the trip so grabbed a cabin for the night - it was clean, safe, with excellent facilities onsite, the staff were fantastic - couldn't fault it for value for money.

It was good overall. The cabin had a decent size (2 rooms, living area, kitchen, bathroom), and the location was convenient. The thermal pools are definitely a plus. Just the cleaning needs a bit of improvement, a few spider webs in some corners and a small siringe found in one of the couches. A safe/secure place for camping and caravan enthusiasts as it was noticed. Also, cafeteria service was a bit limited with no many options but the staff was always friendly. Would return on an eventual trip to Taupo 👍
