Robin was an amazing host and we loved her beautiful property and hospitality! She was accommodating and helpful with recommendations and directions. Only regret was that we didn’t stay longer! Highly recommended!
A beautiful place to stay. The name Serenity describes this B&B perfectly. The room was perfect with spectacular lake views. Breakfast was wonderful. Robin is very knowledgeable and a great host! Wish we had booked for several nights….

This was an elegant & beautiful place. Our host was friendly & so accommodating. The view from our deck was breathtaking. Wish we stayed longer.
The view was absolutely beautiful. What a wonderful spot. Loved sitting on the deck and taking it all in. The host was great and made a fantastic breakfast. Would definitely recommend!
Were welcomed by Robyn and shown our room and all about our stay. Then sent out on back deck and were greeted with spectactacular garden and lake views. Back deck a great pace to sit and enjoy Taupo and the lake. Robyn made sure we had everything we needed down to cushions for chairs and rugs to keep us warm. Next morning she made us a wonderful cooked breakfast and fresh fruit and yoghurt. A wonderful relaxing stay
You cannot deny the view.
Pleasant room with a turn down service (was a surprise to see the mints after being out for dinner).
Hostess is full of knowledge and happy to talk about local attractions/ food opportunities.
Note: No TV in room for the night owls after partners go to sleep, so keep that phone charged.
