Quality Inn Acapulco Taupo

Quality Inn Acapulco Taupo

8/10 Good
"We stayed in the family room with a spa. The spa is a bit old and the paint was flaking off it. Also took ages to fill up and if you leave it, the water slowly drains out. But the kids loved it. Would also suggest going to laundromat if you want laundry done as the washing machine and dryer ($2 for 30 mins) is pretty average. Would have been good if a quick vacuum was given everyday too - kids mean crumbs everywhere. Towels get changed, everything gets cleaned n beds made everyday. Front counter is super friendly. Overall no complaints. Fitted our requirements."

"Lakefront Lodge Taupō sits directly on the lakefront, and I stayed for one night as a stopover during a long journey. The views of the lake and the sunset were exceptional, right from the front of the lodge. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a smooth stay. The location was spot on, and communication with the staff was clear and friendly. The environment was welcoming. I would stay again and highly recommend it to others without a second thought."

"We stayed three nights, it was a perfect location and the room was clean and worked well for us. The only thing I would point out was that the pool cues in the games room had no ends on them and the pool balls were not all there, my kids and I enjoy playing on a pool table so were disappointed that we were unable to play. Other than that I recommend Ika Nui and will stay there again."

8/10 Good
"The room was clean, had everything we needed , beds were comfy very comfy , had all the amenities including air con and running hot water which catered to me and my family of 4. Very quiet and you even get views of Lake Taupo from the room . For the price we paid we got more than we bargained for 👏. Props to the house keepers whom work hard day in day out to get these rooms looking the way they do for guests. Only downside is when you’re going to the pools be mindful it’s A steep walk down and then back up once you are done swimming . That’s the biggest downfall with De Bretts , and run down."

"Great resort for a family holiday. My kids loved it and we were happy that they were happy. One tiny thing was that the windows all opened out to the roadways so curtains needed to be drawn for privacy. Would have been nice if they were tinted. But wasn’t a biggie. We would definitely stay again."
