Gabby 
“We loved our stay!”
Thanks for having us.
Thanks for having us.

Heather “Great Accommodation, we loved our stay.”
Perfect place to stay with two little kids.
- Heather, July 2023Justine “Waimahana 5 is a fantastic location right by the lake - I never tired of the view even on the rainy days and close enough to walk into town.”
The apartment is well-equipped (we cooked on many of the evenings and enjoyed the excellent BBQ) and tidy/clean. The pool/spa is fabulous and very close - we also enjoyed the gym and sauna. There is a bit of road noise, but it never bothered us and only 1 parking spot but we managed to always find a park on the sideroad just fine. The nearby cage "The Cove" is great. Really didn't want to leave - hope we can come back sometime!
- Justine, April 2023Carolyn “Absolutely loved the apartment, the spaciousness for six adults and the view of the lake were the highlights.”
The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for the two meals we cooked there. The first night we got there we were going to cook a bbq but the gas bottle was empty which was a bit of an inconvenience but it was replaced the next day, thank you! The only thing that was a bit of an issue was the parking. We had our two adult daughters and their partners staying with us and there's next to no parking available in that culdesac. But would definitely stay again.
- Carolyn, January 2023Anthony “This is our second stay in the Taupo apartment and it was as good as the first.”
Great hot tub and heated swimming pool. Very quiet apartment and really easy check in procedure. Sun all day full kitchen facilities and a great deck with lake view and all day sun (including evening) for dining. I recommend it if you are looking for real upmarket accommodation.
- Anthony, January 2023Nicola “Lovely place to stay for a long weekend.”
Place was very well equipped and location was excellent.
- Nicola, October 2022Raewyn “Amazing location, great spacious place for the whanau and awesome facilities.”
Made for a very comfortable and easy stay!
- Raewyn, September 2022Vikki “A great place to stay, perfectly clean, lovely views, great amenities.”
Would be good to have a bit more privacy between apartment patios and the house next door - plants could take care of this. The 2nd double bedroom is just a pull-down bed so not that comfortable if two couples.
- Vikki, September 2022Anthony “We had a fantastic stay at this apartment.”
It is spacious and us five guests had plenty of room. We cooked great meals in the full size kitchen. We sat in the super hot pool every sunset if our stay. The underfloor heating is fantastic with one temperature everywhere in the apartment. The permanent resident next door let us use her car park for our second car which we greatly appreciated. The sun streamed into the lounge all day through the generous windows and sliding doors. This apartment is true luxury and well suited for six adults to stay a week or more. We recommend it without reservation!
- Anthony, August 2022Maree “Loved the apartment, warm, spacious and clean.”
The only thing I would like to mention is that the spa pool needed a clean. You could wipe the black stuff from off the sides of the pool on the inside.
- Maree, July 2022Katrina “Highly recommend relaxing in this beautiful, warm, spacious, clean apartment.”
The pool and spa were really nice. The apartment has a huge courtyard with easy access to the pools and lake. Close to Taupo Town centre.
- Katrina, April 2022Julia “Perfect location - easy drive or walk to town along the lake walkway.”
Stunning spot with beautiful view of the lake. Enjoyed the easy access to the pool and spa (which we used multiple times a day) and a lovey apartment with everything you need.
- Julia, February 2022Ashley “In spite of poor communication with Batchcare, we found the property had what we needed for a short stay.”
The property is located on the lake shore and has a café close by. Apartment 5 had a partial view of the lake. The apartments are well equipped, the barbeque was handy and so were the washing machine and drier. We enjoyed the pool and the gym was well equipped.
- Ashley, October 2021Cameron “Unbelievably terrible service from Bachcare.”
We arrived with no passcode for the front door couldn't get hold of anyone, no one called back. 2 hours we waited. Finally found someone through facebook messenger. All this said the property was fantastic and would happily stay again.
