Acacia Bay Lodge: Lakeview & Private Garden View Manor in Taupo

A private manor, Acacia Bay Lodge, is located on the gentle slope of the lakefront hill of Acacia Bay. The remote mountains on the other side of the lake serve as a backdrop, offering views of a corner of the town and the great lake!

The garden has been carefully managed for nearly 40 years. The four seasons in the garden are very different, with flowers, trees, birds, and insects each enhancing the beauty of the others!

A home with stories, providing a space for the body and mind to breathe freely!

The manor is suitable for couples, groups of friends, and especially families. It features more than 3,400 square meters of private garden, exclusive guest rooms, an open-view dining room and kitchen, and wide viewing terraces.

There are more than 20 kinds of fruit trees and dozens of flowers and plants in the garden. Occasionally, hens, ducks, turkeys, and sheep may appear in the garden. We eagerly hope you will treat these lovely friends kindly.

There are 4 bedrooms with comfortable bedding and 2.5 bathrooms for the guests.

A large kitchen with complete equipment and beautiful scenery is spacious enough for 5 people to cook together.

There is a fireplace in the living room; in winter, you can enjoy the warmth of the fire.

You can enjoy the scenery, BBQ, or meals on the large outdoor terrace.

There are coffee machines and tea sets specially prepared for you at the dining room bar, and a BOSE sound system favored by the owner in the living room. The owner hopes you will enjoy a cup of fragrant coffee or characteristic wulong tea while taking in the beautiful scenery and music.

The host lives on the other side of the Big House, but the guests have private space, including the living room, dining room, kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms.

The host will welcome you at home; please contact the host before you check in.

Peaceful spot with beautiful views
We loved the peacefulness of the place and there were several spots to gather and talk, depending on the weather and the sun, which was great. I hadn't quite realised when I booked that the property manager actually lives in the house normally. There was a lot of food in the fridge and only 2 small shelves cleared for our use (5 adults). We had to rearrange the fridge and put a lot of food into the freezer to clear space. A 5th bed was made available but only had a bottom sheet on so we had to go looking for top sheet/duvet and a pillow and pillow case (found a duvet and pillow but no sheet or pillow case) The other beds were fine. However we had an enjoyable stay, thank you
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024
