A Roberts street honey, a quick walk to town

Welcome to my chilled and mellow home. Literally park up and explore everything that makes Taupo so vibrant by day and night all within a 2 minute walk away. Stroll down to the Lake front enjoy the view, then head into town for a few drinks. Chill out, watch the sun go down all while taking in the vibe of the snowy mountains. Summer or winter Taupo's got some mega things to see and do. I can guarantee your time here will be amazing and happy to give a little local inside to help you on your way.
