This place is brand spanking new and super clean. They've got some great tea and coffee options for when you need a break. It's really handy - everything you might need is just a stone's throw away. But the best part? You can take a nice stroll down to the lake. It's pretty sweet! And don't forget friendly staffs!!

The quiet serenity. The breath taking views. The accommodations are top notch. The staff are so lovely. Beautifully curated dinners by chef Yudai and his assistant Hozumi. We didn't use the spa but it is a beautiful space. I wish we had more time to enjoy all that Te Whaanga Retreat has to offer. We especially loved the story of their ancestors being on this land. It was a treat watching the surfers in the mornings.

Taupo is a great place to stay if you like scenic views and relaxing locations. There are your pick of restaurants and entertainment but be prepared to spend, most of our dinners were min. $50NZD per head but you get great food and plenty of it.

It was not on the main strip but in the waterways housing. Both super markets are easy walking away. Whitianga was alive and the cafes were doing good trade. We used the hot pools at the Lost Springs excellent. We used the BBQ facilities at our accommodation. Had breakfast at the local cafes down by the water front. They were launching the class bottom boats down the ramp. If we had more time that looked like a great activity

Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great.

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great. Our tour guide held the kids' attention the entire way and answered all of their questions. The caves are amazing to see and this walking tour is just the right length, even for young kids. Don't forget to book ahead and take a warm top as it is quite chilly down there.

We loved it.

We loved it. The grandkids loved the playground by the mall area. We had a great time at the Goldmine experience and fully recommend this as they were very informative and something different to see. Everything was close by with ample parking which made it easier to get around. Wea made our meals although meal delivery is possible. The ocean is also close. Would love to come back to Thames at some point
