Reviews of Ika Nui Taupo
Very warm welcome by Nicky when we checked in, and shortly after we found our room I had to go back and speak to her regarding a minor issue with the oven, which she helped with immediately.
Very comfortable, warm, well-appointed suite, we loved our 4 nights here. Full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. We were right at the back of the property, but even from there we had beautiful views of the lake. Easy walk to the town centre, and we felt safe walking back from a restaurant at night.
Parking was a bit tight at times, but we always managed to find one.
Lovely lush gardens through the property. The Daphne smelled so good.
Laundry was handy, washing machine was free to use, dryer was $3 coin-operated which would be fine but it left my towels still wet. But the weather was great the day I did laundry, so I was able to make good use of the large washing line area on the rooftop outside the laundry.
We would love to stay at Ika Nui if we ever holiday in Taupō again, it was an absolute pleasure.
Great time even though the unlucky wet weather in Taupo during our stay. The room facilities are perfect to us with fully function kitchen and dishwasher. There is also laundry area in the compound. Kids love the indoor heated pool so much that they said can leave here forever 😭. Game room has table tennis. TV has some kid channels.
One of the only Motels booked out in Taupo on a Tuesday...I wonder why !! Great location, rooms where absolutely spectacular, very spacious, cleaned and smelling fresh, ample towels, comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Beautiful courtyard gardens, someone obviously spends a lot of time up keeping. Excellent value for money in these times... $144 for 2 people in a decent sized one bedroom studio. Spa and a neat pool with super friendly staff and patrons.
I'm impressed. We stop in Taupo 2-3x per year and have had some not so good experiences also, pays to check your reviews like we did this time before booking !
Excellent reviews also!!!
Thank you so much for having us!!
I had a pleasant stay. The room is incredibly spacious, offering a plenty of room to move around. Fully equipped with everything you need. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, open, and relaxing stay.
What a great place, large rooms and very pretty landscaping. It was quiet but it had a nice community vibe. The staff were so helpful and everything was so convenient. I would absolutely stay here again.
Breathtaking views from our room. Clean, tidy and warm rooms. Was great to be so close to the town centre, being only a 5min walk to the shopping, coffee and food strip
It was a couple of years ago we stayed for 4 nights, Awesome whanau atmosphere, Awesome hospitality, I've been telling all my Whanau to stay here

Stayed for two days with family. Pool was clean, receptionist was nice and lovely to guest, room was also nice, clean. We had a nice view from our room as well. I'm sure the bed, pillows and sheets are clean since I did not end up getting any itch or bug bites compare to other places I have stayed. Location is great and walkkng distance to shops. Would love to go back and stay there again if I have the time again to visit Taupo.
Had booked the place for my extended family, would definatly recommend this place. Its not only close to the lake and other stuff, but a clean and well present place to stay.
Lovely place to stay with family, we love it all the only disappointment was the spa was not working ( mantenimiento 🙄). Other than that great for a group.
Ika Nui Taupo is a great spot by Lake Taupō with amazing views. You can see the calm water and big mountains, which makes it really peaceful. There are pretty gardens and lots of things to do nearby, so guests have a really good time.
You can take a nice walk by the lake or try some exciting activities. The motel rooms are comfy, and the staff is friendly, which makes your stay feel top-notch. Whether you want to relax or have some fun, Ika Nui Taupo has it all, making guests want to come back again and again.
Will definitely stay at the same facility whenever visiting next time.
Just in front of lake.
Overwhelmed by the staff at reception, they changed the unit to lake view(unit 25), shortened the trip and refunded the remaining amount.
Allowed a little late checkout.
Enough parking spaces.
Spent four nights here during our trip and would definitely stay again. Beautiful facility with apartment style accommodations. Walking distance to the lake and plenty of restaurants. Laundry facilities were a nice plus.
Lovely place to stay with generously sized rooms. Comfortable, and have a fairly full kitchen with oven and dishwasher! This would be an excellent longer-term stay if you're in Taupo for any length of time. Beds very firm and comfy, lovely and warm.
The only letdown is the state of the spa pool in the pool area. It could really do with updating. The jets have a mind of their own, no knobs seemed in control, seating was a bit weird, and the decor looks like it needs an overhaul.
Otherwise a very good place to stay near everything and the staff are very friendly and helpful!
An excellent stay at the Ika Nui motel. Rooms were extremely spacious with good amenities, each with their own personal balcony with a view of the lake. Staff were helpful and friendly and the location was perfect. Only thing was that we had no towels on arrival which I’m sure was just a small oversight.
Ika Nui is the only motel I will stay at in Taupo.
1. Excellent professional friendly service from Loretta and her staff.
2. Very spacious clean rooms that offer over and above to make your stay perfect. Beds are so comfortable and with a TV in your bedroom.
3. Location is with a view to the Lake across the road. There is an amazing walk/bike path along the lake
4. Very close walking distance to the CBD, where cafes, bars and restaurants are on the water front. So like me if you want to drink alcohol and not drive, this is the perfect spot.
5. Price is affordable, extremely reasonable for what it has to offer.
This motel is a Gem., it is slightly dated from the outside but that is overlooked once you enter
There is a pool, spa and pool table.
Very tidy and clean. Good view for the lake. Friendly stuff
Top notch service and communication!!
I emailed whilst travelling as we were quite late due to road closures. Email response within ten minutes. Amazing!!
Very clean room, spacious (unit 11), quiet, very well gated so kids were safe at all times.
Highly recommend this facility.
Thank you Ika Nui, your customer service is the best we have had in a long time and we will be recommending to all our friends and colleagues.
See you again!
Loretta went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and we had a great stay. The kitchen was well equipped, our apartment was clean, spacious and warm. I can’t fault our stay in anyway and highly recommend Ika Nui as a fantastic, family friendly home away from home.
This is an older property with large rooms, well maintained and very close to town. Stayed overnight on way back to Auckland. Huge room, was originally a timeshare motel now solely motel. ||Very helpful receptionists. The key to this motel is it's proximity to the town and eateries etc. ie 3 minute walk to town and also across the road from the lake which is nice for a morning walk. Some motels in Taupo are far from town and you need a car. ||This is not the case with this one. Got a decent rate on Booking.|Would stay here again based on the size of the room and it's central location.|Enjoyed a nice dip in the Wairakei Terraces hotpools (age 14 years and over), got a decent discount voucher for entry on the grabone site.
Visited Ika Nui late May, worth every dollar. Stayed with 2 other couples and the room was warm, clean and comfortable. We booked the 2 bed with views and everyone had room enough to do there own thing without tripping over each other. Unfortunately, we didn't the greatest view as it was foggy and cloudy, not Ika Nuis fault though. Great affordable place to stay in an awesome handy location - highly recommend
Great place to stay. great value for money. Very close to taupo CBD and directly opposite the lake no other buildings in front to spoil views. Rooms aren't brand new but still nice. very happy with our spontaneous decision to stay here
Great location. Easy walk in to town and opposite Lake Taupo. Check in was late, as they were still cleaning when we arrived at 2pm. Room stunk of bleach when we checked in. Bed was comfortable and the room was well provisioned.Manager was friendly and accommodating.
Lovely hotel, however may not be recommended for people with backache condition. The bed are way too soft to support the spine. It is very near to a few restaurants and nice view
From the moment I arrived I was pleasantly surprised. The staff were friendly. The lady at reception was welcoming and explained everything clearly. The room was clean and tidy with everything you need and more. The beds were even comfortable which is a rare treat when staying away from home. Personally a dip in the spa was my highlight. I would recommend IKA NUI to friends and will stay again next time I pass through. Thanks guys.
Lovely clean motel no complaints except for spa pool definitely needs to be upgraded it was luke warm with no bubbles for winter toooo cold
Very nice apartments and right in town and across the road from the lake.
Reception staff go out of their way to help you.
I had left a bag of dirty laundry behind and got a friend to pick it up.
They had washed, dried and folded it.
Definitely recommend and will stay again when in Tpo.
I booked this place very last minute for Ironman so wasn’t expecting much.
But they were so super friendly when I booked and everything about this place is amazing. Great location. Close to town. Can walk across the road to the lake for a swim.
The room was the best hotel room I’ve stayed in for ages. Clean tidy comfortable bed. And had everything I needed. The lounge was very spacious and could spread out. Great having a beautiful deck over looking the jane nestled amounts the beautiful fully homeowner garden. The pool spa and plunge pool were an absolute bonus. Will be staying here every time I come to Taupo! Cannot fault the accommodation and service.
We didn’t know when we booked that Ironman was on that week so we paid far more than we should have - our mistake |The motel has everything you need but BBQ could do with a good clean|The room is well equipped with full size oven |Good outside area and living room
The perfect place to stay in Taupo. Staff is extremely friendly. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. View from room was super amazing(uploaded video is the view from the room). Location is also perfect. I would highly recommend this place as a stay.
Was a great little stop over, the second bed in our place didn't even have a sheet on it. I had to make the bed myself. But the only reason I gave it a 3 star is it is not child friendly. The front gate doesn't get closed so the children can get out to the road. Best they get a children gate out front. Keep the little ones safe
Great motel to stay but lack parking & so narrow was the only draw back but room very big & cooking our dinner was a bonus
We spent a night here with family - group of 10 adults and 4 children, had a paid reservation for 3 apartments but because we checked in after hours, we had 6 keys on the safety box for 6 apartments for us all which we did take as we don’t know what is happening and no one to ask. Area is so clean and welcoming view as well as lake view at the front. To my surprise, I did pay for the additional 3 apartments which I disputed with Booking.com which I used to book our accommodation. The manager was spectacular by explaining to me they received 6 apartments booked under me. Booking.com came back to me that I should be reimbursed as it was not my fault, as of this moment still awaiting for one apartment left unpaid yet to my bank account. Overall the place is extraordinary, will definitely be back when we are in Taupo, highly recommended 👍
Room was very clean and had the most utilities I've ever seen. Usually you get the basic stuff 4 plates, 4 cups and so on. Not this place it had everything you think of, Real knives lol and decent size coffee cups, Swimming towels.
I particularly loved the He Whakaputanga Flag( Flag of United Tribes of Aotearoa) that was flying in the front.
Māuri Ora
Jacs was lovely to deal with and ever so helpful. Had some unexpected changes to our booking but wasn't a problem so saved us from lots what could have been really stressful! Had a large family staying so using two rooms. Rooms were comfortable and clean and kids enjoyed using pool and other facilities. Wouldn't hesitate to use this facility again.
Awesome location, right across from the lake and very close to all of the restaurants and shops. Rooms seemed recently updated and everything was very neat and clean.
We had a great stay here, room was immaculately clean and stocked with everything we needed. However, the main reason we booked was for the spa and pool, but they were closed for maintenance, which no one had communicated to us. We also went to use the built in hairdryer which caught on fire from the inside. When we let the reception know they just said they’d look into it. Other than that, great value for money.
Wonderful place to stay with a family. The staff are lovely, very accommodating. We are a family of 7 and stayed very comfortably in a 2 bedroom ground floor unit. The unit was so well equipped, very spacious, clean and tidy. Definitely exceeded all our expectations. We stayed here with family members who were in other units and their feedback was the same as ours. Thank you ika nui for making our stay here so enjoyable. 5 star rating, well deserved
Very nice rooms and customer service at the front desk. Definitely will want to come back....
Had such a great holiday. Room was clean, other guests were respectful. My son lost his phone but the manager/owner located it quickly. Hot pools were fun
Great location, fantastic view. The unit is really good, plenty of space, well equipped with everything you need. The bathroom is spacious, decent water pressure in the shower. It's nice having a separate bedroom. Staff are very helpful and friendly 🙂 Would absolutely recommend
We stayed here for two days, the room was awesome, everything you could need was in there, great size room, great location just straight accross the rd to the lake. The staff were very helpful. Value for money was the best I seen in a long time.
Came for the weekend nice staff room was well equip and clean nice views of lake and short distance to town center. Jad a nice dip in pool to cool off Spa eas being renovated so couldnt have one but Will come back staff were real nice too
Beautiful place to stay, amazing view, overlooking Taupo lake. Closer to all facilities. You and your family could plan activities like playing golf, or go on a ride on the doughboats lovely experience 😍. Planning to visit Taupo, Ika Nui is the place to stay.
A family of 4 (kids 5+7)
We absolutely loved our stay! So central and fully self contained!
We will definitely be back next NZ trip.
Very comfortable place to stay. Warm and enjoyable. Has everything you need for cooking and cleaning dishwasher etc. Good water pressure for showers. Would definitely stay here again in the future. Also has hot pools on site which are in a separate area.
Great place to stay especially if you pick the rooms with lake view for some extra bucks. Rooms are tidy and not so dated compared to what i expected from the photos. The two-bedroom is very spacious. Staffs at reception are very friendly. Hassle free check in and check out. Superb location. Very pleasant stay.
It's in the best location for the lake and the cafes and shops are within an easy walking distance. The units are lovely and clean and perfect for what we wanted. We had the one bedroom unit as there was only 2 of us. The overall outside look just doesn't do it justice. It is a lovely place to stay and all self contained with everything you need. We have stayed there twice and will stay there again next time.
A value for Money. Just on the main road opposite to the lake. Near to the sign Love Taupo. The hole in one challenge game spot is located just opposite to this motel. Neat and tidy family oriented hotel.
Great stay. Check in was a breeze and staff were friendly and informative.
Room was clean and tidy and well equipped.
Amenities were good too.
Great location, right by the lake and walking distance to town.
Only improvement would be a larger, modern TV that I could Screencast too and the wifi was not that good.
What can I say. I have been going there for 14 years and have loved every minute of it. My Grandparents and Mum have been going there for 30+ years and still aren't sick of it. It has beautiful views of sunsets at night and amazing views of the mountains during the day (if the weather complies). It is located in a prime location as it is only a 5 minute stroll to the center of town. The facilities are very good and well maintained. The units are very clean and tidy and the beds and couches are very comfortable. The staff are very friendly and constantly keep the mint bowl full =)
Lovely accommodation in beautiful surroundings and all close to the town centre. Good value for money.
Only wish we could have stayed longer.
My husband and I stayed a few days at the Ika Nui Taupō in room 14, which is directly across from the check in office.
Our living room view was of the lake and it was gorgeous.
There is a full kitchen, as well as living room, dining table, bathroom with a shower and a queen sized bed in a separate bedroom.
The kitchen was well stocked with pretty much everything you could possibly need on a trip to cook.
Walls were thick and we didn't hear anyone except for people in the parking lot one night.
PROBLEMS:
Parking is a nightmare and much too snug for comfort. One night we came home and every slot was filled so we had to park at a different hotel and pray we didn't get towed.
The major downside is the internet doesn't work here. That's a problem if you're a foreigner and you're on data roaming. You won't be able to upload photos to the cloud, post on social media or make WiFi calls because unless we stood at the front door, holding our phone out to get the initial signal, the WiFi wouldn't stay connected anywhere in the entire unit.
Overall I was happy with our stay, except for the WiFi issue.
Visited February 2023
Definitely would recommend this motel to any family or single person. Walking distance to the township. Friendly staff, pool facilities with 2 spa pools main pool. Games room with Pool table an Table tennis.
Having stayed here for a number of days we found the staff helpful with requests.
One thing to note is there is no daily servicing of apartments which isn’t a big thing, just to be aware of. Towels, sheets etc if required available on request at the office.
We did have a couple of other issues which were really only minor overall.
Apartments are large, medium sized fridge, full cooking facilities, implements and cutlery are available. Other items also include iron and board if you are needing those, brooms, brushes etc stored in cupboards.
Noise is very little and we were near the main thoroughfare.
VERY close to town and lake front - lake is just across the road and town a short 2-5 min walk depending on where you’re going.
Parking is allocated so please park in your spot 😊
From the time of booking to leaving the unit my wife and I found Ika Nui Taupo absolutely great. The service, location and quality internal finishes were out of the top drawer. Would highly recommend anyone as we intend to return when time permits. Excellent value in every aspect. Evan and Glenda
Next to the main busy road so not overly quiet . The rooms are a really decent size and you can walk to shops cafes super close..ideal for business overnight stay .Shower tile floor could of been cleaner.
Please get your room at this hotel. It so comfy. Nearest with chris jolly adventure and there so many place to eat and get souvenir.
Owh if want try luck to get 10,000.00 nzd can try golf challenge at there.Located just infront this hotel.Best of luck!
What an awesome place to stay, couldn't fault the service at all Lorretta the Manager couldn't do enough for us, even picked us up from where we were stranded late at night instead of getting a taxi, what a trooper lady she was, went above an beyond her duties to help us out. If you want good service an with a big smile go to Ika Nui an stay wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anybody wanting good clean accommodation, Thanks so much Lorretta 😀 xxx
Apart from a hiccup at check-in where staff were absent and the phone number went to voicemail, the visit was good. The room was large, the bed softer than usual, and the bathroom/shower spotless. Would stay again.
Great location - within walking distance to shops, restaurants, supermkt. Friendly, extremely helpful reception staff. Ika Nui used to be a Time Share so apartments are far better equipped than an average motel unit. Exceptionally clean & spacious & generous with towel supply! Contrary to a couple of other reviews as these comments concerned us before we made our booking - Ika Nui ONLY takes genuine paying guests. There are no Government Emergency housing tenants here & no contract to take them. The pool & spa are simply closed because they are indoors & covid restrictions require them to be closed. This should change very soon. There is also no insistence on paying by credit card & we had no problems paying by cash for our stay. Highly recommend & we would most definitely stay here again.
Really happy with our choice to stay here. The staff are awesome, the unit was clean and well stocked, had comfy beds and was really good value for money. Can't fault Ika Nui and would definitely recommend to others.
Check-in and check-out was great. Awesome location with everything you need in the kitchen, bathroom, ensuite, living and dining rooms. Very tidy units. Indoor pool, plunge pool and spa were great too. Informative and friendly staff as well. We will definitely be back again.
Loved the spacious light room.
Loved the gardens which are beautifully chosen with variety of colours shape and type of plant.
Very beautiful and unique and creates privacy.
Thanks to friendly staff.
What a beautiful location.
Excellent customer service, rooms were great. Nice and private outdoor area for a Lakeview room. Would definitely recommend ti others, family friendly. Has a pool, spa and games room with a pool table and ping pong table so plenty of options for all.
We have stayed here for one week last year and one week this year. Timeshare units have fully equipped kitchens enabling families to prepare cost effective meals and have affordable holidays. Units are fully air-conditioned and comfortably furnished. Management and staff are very helpful.
Ika Nui was perfect! The location could not have been better, an incredibly well-resourced, clean modern apartment, loved that we didn't have to book the spa, awesome view and garden to sit outside and enjoy, as well as super friendly, hospitable staff. We look forward to seeing you again!
Great spot walking distance to shopping centre, bars cafes etc. A little dated in some areas, but great kitchen and bathrooms, clean warm and quiet. Laundry room with free washers and pay to use dryers, airing racks available. Smoke free even vapes. Games room with pool and table tennis. Nice heated pool, spa and plunge pool. Enjoyed our weeks stay.
Nice size condo unit in a quiet neighborhood across from the lakefront. We had a two bed, two bath unit: one had a teeny tiny en suite and the other had a giant bathroom that opened to the living room. Full kitchen, decently equipped. Also has a sofa bed. TV in living room and master bedroom. Ours had a covered patio and table seating.
Perfect location 👌 Rooms 21 and Room 6 very clean very comfortable very tidy services I would give it AAA+ customer service is top of the line we still have 2 more sleeps here then we head back to Wellington I would highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking for accommodation in taupo don't miss out it's worth staying for family and business travelers thank you for your hospitality we appreciate every day and stay 😀 😊
This resort is fabulous. I recommend it for a friendly and relaxing stay. Although on the main road on the lakefront, you do not hear any traffic noise. Sit and enjoy the balcony and view of the lake. Pleasant staff. Very friendly. Unit was very clean and comfortable.
Excellent location, walking distance to shopping, cafes & restaurants etc. Nicely appointed rooms that were clean & spacious. Great little indoor heated pool with spa & hot tub. Nice friendly managers with a very good reception area providing local information on tours & tourist attractions. Located right next to Mini Putt Putt and across the road from Hole in One Golf. Only negative was the small carpark for our unit meant our ute was too big & we had to park out on the street. We weren't very happy about that.
Nice contemporary cabins, well kept grounds. Parking is a bit of a squeeze but managable. Service is very good, with a nice lounge open most times of day. Good value for money IF you make sure you use the timeshare regularly.
Handy location front of the lake, close to town, less than 6 mins walk to fast-food brands, restaurants, bars, and shopping place. Room cleanliness is average. Overall, Value for money.
Everything about Ika Nui was perfect for us.
Customer Service was A+, super friendly and helpful.
Will definitely be staying again when we are next in Taupō.
Super delighted by the kindness of reception who lowered our booking price on the spot to just cover themselves because it was school holidays and I had 4 children with me. Lovely clean rooms and loved that the queen room had its on full onsuite!
Apartment is vey clean. Kitchen has everything that you need. The bedroom for our downstairs unit attached to car park, very noisy with cars going all the time. Inconsiderate people talking just outside your bedroom loudly at 1am then again at 7am. Lack of privacy as BBQ area right in front of our unit. People not using assigned parking spots. The Wifi also is poor keeps disconnecting.
We enjoyed staying at Ika Nui as the apartment has everything we wished for a chill holiday. Close to the restaurants and just at the waterfront. The design of the terrace in the front of each apartment creates the privacy we needed
Very good
Comfortable unit
I have a
suggestion to double glaze the bedroom .
It's South facing & cold
Also the road outside is now the main road in to the CBD.
I was in Unit 26
Stayed for a week in the school holidays, thoughly enjoyed our stay. The resort is very well set up with spa pools and heated pool for the kids to enjoy. Location of the resort is excellent, close to the shops and cafes. A big thanks to all the staff who went out of there way to make our stay memorable.... Thanks Ika Nui we'll be back...☺☺☺
We really enjoyed our stay. Our unit was clean and comfortable, had everything we needed. The view was awesome. the staff were friendly
We will definitely come again.
On arrival greeted by friendly staff. The room was clean and tidy and we were within walking distance to Taupo shopping centre, restaurants cafes and local attractions. We only had one minor issue the parking and trying to manouvre around other vehicles on the corner of your establishment coming down the back of Briscoes. Otherwise ok place to stay.
I had a lovely time at Taupo Ika Nui. It is really well managed, everything runs like clockwork and nothing seemed to be a problem with the staff. Even the cleaning staff appeared to be happy! It is close to town and close to the lake. Perfect! The only thing that was disappointing was no Happy hour any more. I thought that the sound-proofing was good. The units were very clean and well equipped.
At our recent stay at this resort we found it to be most hospitable and comfortable, well maintained and the unit we stayed in was very clean and tidy. The staff we dealt with were friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the local area and activities.
The resort is handy to local restaurants, bars and cafes as well as the shopping centre.
We recommend this stay to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable timeshare holiday. A very well run resort.
Walking distance to shops, entertainment, Lake and breathtaking views
Friendly staff
Rooms (especially beds) need bit upgrade, but the location makes up for it
Across the road from Lake. Room is dated and had hair in bathroom. Stairs to upstairs units were steep and narrow. Relieving manager couldn't provide local information
Excellent first class Taupo accomodation... super helpful friendly service from Loretta, imaculately clean, recently renovated rooms , great location - views, etc - quiet too overnight. Thank you Loretta - we enjoyed our stay and highly recommend you to all.
Classic style for retired couple, face to the lake, comfortable bed, all you need to bring with you is your luggage and food. They offer fully furnished kitchen. Perhaps family would enjoy the stay too
The receptionist was so warm and welcoming and was super helpful. The rooms were lovely, clean and spacious. Great location too, will definitely be back.
Great central location, spacious and very clean apartment with a comfy bed. They'd thought of everything really including a central BBQ area. Good value motel.
Provides virtually every amenity you would need to enjoy your holiday.
Very clean and well put together.
Very close to the city centre, shops, restaurants, etc.
View of the lake.
Enjoyed my time there a lot and would definitely recommend.
Needed a place en route to Wellington just for 1 night
Helpful staff, very clean and comfortable. Well thought through layout
Short, pleasant stroll to eateries
Easy to recommend and we will be back
We enjoyed our stay. We had a couple of bbq on the resort's bbq. Had lots of swims in the hot pools. With the resort so close to the town it was good to be able to walk to the shops. Very comfortable unit with a comfortable bed.
Great hotel, very clean good price and perfect location. Close to restaurants bars etc. Has a pool and two spas!!
Rubbish WiFi in peak times
My husband and I visit Taupo almost every year and have stayed at TIN on many occasions. Every time we have stayed, the management have been very hospitable and caring about our time in Taupo. This year we took my elderly mother who has never been before . she had a wonderful time in the pool and spa area .As we were not always around during the day, I was assured that should she need anything , staff would meet her needs should the occassion arise. We were booked into a ground floor unit for ease of access ,which also had been newly renovated.The rooms at TIN are small but the standard is high and even with 6 suitcases, thanks to Air New Zealand, we were able to put them in storage cupboards with a little reshuffling , there was ample room for our relaxation.We have already put in our request for 2014 to stay again.
Large and really lovely bathoom. Lots of crockery, close to town.
Our unit could sleep 5 with fold down bed and a fold out double bed.
Great location, opposite the lake and in the town centre. Has all the basic amenities.
Location is great but pricy.
Excellent accommodation, well furnished with all amenities, friendly and efficient staff and an excellent location on the lake close to shops and eating places.
Loving it here. Really close to township and eateries, Comfortable beds. Pool and spa area is great too. I'll be back.
Comfortable and spacious. Not a lot of natural light but location makes up for it
Great place to stay. Ika nui made it so easy as we arrived late. We received full instructions in what to do and walked into a beautifully warm and welcoming accommodation. Loved it. 5☆. Thank you Ika Nui Taupo.
Lovely rooms, catered for all needs and extra people. Awesome facilities. Highly recommend
Fantastic, friendly, wonderful place to stay. Rooms super comfortable and clean, staff welcoming and helpful. Great location.
Great accommodation with everything you need. Very clean and well maintained. Also, the location is fantastic. Right on the waterfront and a very short walk into town.
Great timeshare resort, we have just return from spending two weeks at Taupo Ika Nui. This was the first time in the North Island of New Zealand and Taupo is a great location, very central to all tourist spots, 1.5 hours to the Hawkes Bay, 1 hours to Rotorua and 1.5 hours to the mountains plus Taupo itself has a huge number of attractions - Huka Falls was great, Craters of the Moon, Lake Cruises etc etc etc. Taupo Ika Nui is 500m from the middle of town making it very easy to walk in each day for a coffee, we had an upstairs unit at Ika Nui with great views of Lake Taupo and the Mountains, while at Ika Nui, Taupo had a good dumping of snow, first time in a number of years I believe. Our unit was very well appointed with everything we needed and very very clean, plus we had a service after the first week and we were very pleased to be able to change our towels midweek (nice touch guys), lover the heated pool. Thanks Loretta, Paske and Dave for looking after us - we would love to come back someday.
Fantastic stay. My wife and I had a weeks holiday to rest and unwind. Great room well set up. Very clean. Just loved it. Thanks
Great stay...shame it rained while we were there so couldnt do much other than stay in!
Lake view room. Easy walk to shops and restaurants. Friendly staff on arrival. Olderstyle but clean and well appointed.
Beautiful accommodation!! Will be back 100%
Great location. Ideal for the travelling holiday makers and families. Close to shops and across road from lake. Reasonably priced if you get in quick...🙂
Located right in front of Lake Taupo. Big size unit, fully equipped like a 1 bedroom apt. Walking distance to eateries nearby.
Great location on the lake except for the road noise. Friendly, helpful staff. Easy walking to shops and restaurants.
Clean and good location. Tv needs updating
Spacious rooms. Getting a little dated. Good service.
Very good hotel. Staff was very friendly.
Internet speed however is pretty trash. Can’t play Netflix shows. Likely too many users.
Apartment was fitted with everything you need. Great location and kids loved the pool and spa, so did dad!
