Acacia Bay Retreat - Acacia Bay Holiday Home

Nestled in the peaceful lakeside suburb of Acacia Bay, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment offers the perfect setting for couples, friends, or small families looking to experience the best of Taupō.

Wake each morning to breathtaking views across Lake Taupō as the sun rises over the water, painting the landscape in vibrant colours. Start your day with a freshly brewed coffee and step outside to soak in the tranquil atmosphere from the outdoor seating area, where panoramic lake vistas provide a stunning backdrop to every moment.

Inside, contemporary furnishings, modern artwork, and light-filled living spaces create a welcoming retreat you'll love returning to after a day of adventure. The open-plan living area has been thoughtfully designed for comfort, featuring comfortable seating, WiFi, and central heating to ensure a cosy stay throughout the year. Large windows frame the beautiful outlook, allowing you to enjoy the lake views from the comfort of indoors.

Sleeping up to four guests, the apartment features two spacious bedrooms with king-sized beds, with one bed able to be configured into two king singles for added flexibility. Whether you're travelling as couples or with friends, Acacia Bay Retreat provides a restful and comfortable space to unwind.

On warm summer evenings, fire up the BBQ and enjoy alfresco dining while watching the changing colours of the lake. For those wanting to explore, local cafés, restaurants, and eateries are just a minute's drive away, while the lakefront can be reached in around six minutes on foot.

Within a short drive, discover Taupō's most popular attractions, including the Māori Rock Carvings, Huka Falls, lake cruises, jet boating adventures, geothermal attractions, mountain biking trails, and scenic walking tracks.

For stunning lake views, modern comforts, and a peaceful location, Acacia Bay Retreat is the perfect choice for your next Taupō escape.
Guests should take care when accessing the property as there is a steep driveway.

Please note there is a separate upstairs dwelling at this property which may be occupied during your stay.

Hubby said he was glad humans could be welcome along with dogs! Very dog friendly.

Only issue was the steep driveway. Very slippy when wet. One fell over but didn't do to much damage to self. Otherwise a lovely relaxing stay and highly recommended

Doggy wknd away

Perfect for a doogy stay. Fully secure yard. Blankets supplied for dogs. Close to wonderful dog walking areas around Acacia Bay. The apartment had everything we needed. Beds were luxurious. Our only negative comment would have to be was that it could use a deep clean to rid of hanging cobwebs and dusty areas. Would definitely stay again and recommend to dog friends. The morning view over the lake was stunning as we ate breakfast outside.
