Jared 
“Love the place!”
Beautiful views to!
Beautiful views to!
- Jared, October 2024 -
Neve “Was the perfect place for our trip, everyone loved the space (especially the views).”
Perfect distance from town and other activities. Overall we had a great time here.
- Neve, June 2024Mel “Great place to stay, the bedding is comfortable and has great linen.”
The upstairs area is suited for young teenagers rather than adults, but overall was a pleasant stay. The view is spectacular! Location is great, with the walkway being right there, a easy walk to the Yacht Club for lunch. Unfortunately only one shower, an addition of another shower to the ensuite would be beneficial. We loved our time there, thank you :)
- Mel, February 2024Johnny Stuart “I found a few cockroaches in the house.”
One of the drawers in the kitchen was broken, and the first room's roller door right next to the entrance was terrible. That roller door needs immediately fix since it barely slides. Also, the first room near the entrance got almost no power plugs which make it so difficult to stay in the room and its heater is very weak which was bad for our stay over the winter. We felt very cold.
- Johnny Stuart, August 2023Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to advise that the owner has upgraded the heating and you should now be comfortably warm during the cooler months. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! Bachcare
Gayan “Awesome property to spend the holiday and located in a such a awesome place.”
The view of the lake when you open your curtains is beautiful. Ample of space and had a really good time out there. Everything was satisfied except the heating in the rooms. May need to upgrade the heating facilities in the rooms for the winter. Love our stay
- Gayan, June 2023Cynthia “A comfortable home in a stunning location.”
- Cynthia, May 2023Mella “Awesome place to stay accommodated our group of 12 perfectly, the view was amazing also nothing like a good old fireplace to keep you warm when its cold.”
Only thing we struggled with as a group was the fact that although there are 2 bathrooms theres only 1 shower, other then that great stay. Thank you ;) Will definitely be coming back.
- Mella, April 2023Tui “Was a lovely stay, the panel heaters weren’t working at all, which made for a bit chilly evenings.”
We did use the oil heater in the outside rooms, which we were grateful for and the heat pump was awesome. Nice fire too. Might be good to let people know to bring extra blankets for winter. Was a really lovely location - thank you
- Tui, April 2023Philippa “Perfect for us.”
Great weather, beautiful outlook, nice relaxed holiday. Thank you
- Philippa, October 2022Carolyn “Panel heater in downstairs room not working.”
Drier not working. One of the sliding doors on the outside rooms cannot be locked. Shower box enclosure to low. Need another shower to cater for a 13 person bach. Bachcare were not very helpful in returning communication.
- Carolyn, October 2022Thank you for your feedback and we will address the issues you have raised. Our apologies for not responding to you in a timely manner. Bachcare
Christine “This location was great, wonderful view and close to shops and park.”
We were a bit disappointed in some things. There was a broken handle on the door to the lounge and every time we would close or open the door, the handle would come off. The bottom draw was broken as well and I can see that someone tried to fix it but did not do a great job. The first sliding door when you enter the "house" is also not working properly and needs some fixing. We loved the fire place and the heat pump definitely a bonus! Other than the few broken things, we had a lovely stay. Maybe a upgrade in the bathroom could be considered too. Over all lovely, thank you for making this available for us to use!
- Christine, July 2022Jaysen and Amanda “The house was amazing.”
Very warm. Great location and stunning views. Would definitely recommend this house
- Jaysen and Amanda, July 2022Ryan “The place was even better than we imagined.”
The expansive windows and the views were stunning, especially form the second floor. Great location right above the lake and secluded with a very short drive into town.
- Ryan, October 2021Leota “Lovely place well hopefully be back”
- Leota, October 2021Fleur “Absolutely beautiful views.”
We were there in winter, Sumner time would be a fabulous venue.
- Fleur, July 2021Helen “Great family place to stay.”
Superb view of the lake and very well appointed kitchen.
- Helen, April 2021Natasha “Fantastic location, Bach has everything you need for a pleasant stay Lake views ...”
Fantastic location, Bach has everything you need for a pleasant stay Lake views were amazing and just a walk to the lake on your Bach doorstep for a swim was awesome
- Natasha, February 2021JUSTINE “Wonderful spot with panoramic view of lake Taupo.”
So easy to be in this space and enjoy all it has to offer.
- JUSTINE, January 2021Lelanie “Great view!”
Loved our time there!
- Lelanie, December 2020Lisa “OMG was our reaction when we opened the door to the courtyard/house, we LOVE this place, so peaceful, quiet and beautiful.”
Cazna was awesome & so helpful. Cant wait for our next Taupo holiday...we'll be booking again at the WhareWaka. Thank you for Sharing your Whare property owners
- Lisa, July 2020Caroline “Location is amazing.”
Full view of lake and overlooking reserve for easy use of the area. Safe for kids to access beach and park. Plenty of room for a large family or group. Lots of sleeping options. Plenty of kitchenware and seating . Good bbq. An older property that’s certainly quirky but location and ease is a winner. Tons of room and for the 6 kids ranging in ages from 11-18 it’s perfect as they can roam around without supervision . Great adult time! Highly recommend.
- Caroline, February 2020Karen “The property was clean,cosy,million dollar views and had everything we needed.”
- Karen, February 2020Deanna “We had a great stay - close to the park and lake front.”
The property was safely enclosed so ideal for young children.
- Deanna, November 2019Freja “Classic kiwi batch with a million dollar views.”
Our 3 families really enjoyed our time here, highly recommended!
- Freja, October 2019Chris “A great place which easily accomodated two families.”
The kids loved the fire in the evenings, and a good location and great lake views. Thank you.
- Chris, August 2019Grant “Good value for money, a positive experience.”
- Grant, April 2019Carol “Great place for our families to stay.”
Plenty of room upstairs for the kids to play and a playground along the road, not to mention the lake at our doorstep. Beautiful, peaceful holiday house with a stunning view.
- Carol, November 2018Annabel “Great views, access to lake and family friendly bach.”

Just an 8 minute drive around the lake from Taupo Central, Wharewaka is a great base for a relaxing or adventure-packed holiday. It's out of the hustle and bustle of the centre, but still close to many of the bucket-list activities Taupo has to offer such as going out on the lake, visiting Huka Falls or even making the trek along the Tongariro Crossing. All of our Wharewaka holiday homes are pre-inspected prior to your arrival and are ready for instant online booking.
