★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great customer service, lovely friendly staff. Clean and tidy room. Small kitchenette. Private spa bath out back. Not super modern interior but clean and tidy. Very comfy bed! Neighbours were noisey in their spa bath next door so wish there was more sound proofing but thankfully they were quieter at 1130pm ish. Very close to Lake Taupo so location is amazing and close to shops and other touristy spots. No kids which is made very clear when booking so not sure how others reviewing didn't see that part. All and all a nice stay, thank you!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was told I was dumb because I didn't read the policy about no kids, had booked online stating I had infant with me, went out for walk with him, it came over and told me no kids allowed told her that I booked online with an infant then was told I was dumb because I didn't read the policy. Wouldn't recommend this awful experience to any family.that thing must not be able to have kids because. Her house her rules she yelled multiple times not listening to a word we said. Pulled the fingers as we drove away. Absolutely discussed in the way that manager handheld things. Yes I didn't read the policy.. who does. I stated I had infant with me which is why I chose that place. Biggest mistake. Maybe it should tell the booking agency's that no kids allowed and take it of the search when looking for rooms with kids..

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Used to really love coming here and had been my go to stop when traveling between the country. However they don't allow babies here (due to health and safety reasons) so guess we can't stay here anymore. Really recommend this place if you haven't decided to start a new family. The private spa in each room is very private relaxing and enjoyable.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We did a booking for V U Thermal Lodge, Taupo via Booking.com. We have done a series of booking through booking.com and have never faced a problem like this. I was accompanied along with my wife and our less than one year old baby was traveling from Palmerston North, and it was extremely tiresome. We were quite relieved on reaching the lodge, but the worst was yet to come. We were “welcomed” by a receptionist who had such a cold behaviour. The lady over the reception on seeing us said that kids under the age of 9 years old are not allowed, but we are quite sure we had the filter on with the baby, as that’s how we have done the booking till now. Is it because we were brown skinned that she had such a behaviour or is just having a bad day? Nevertheless, it such a terrible attitude to be shown to anyone at the door, its not that we haven’t paid and asking for accommodation, we have booked and then being welcomed in such a way was so heart-breaking. She just talked so rudely through the window and kept on shutting the window when we wanted to clarify our side, atleast she should have the courtesy to open the door and hear our side of the story. She kept on saying that our booking affected the sales of the lodge and its too late to get a refund and that we need to be talking to Booking.com. It would be have been better if you had an ounce of kindness in the way you dealt with us.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We stayed one night 29/3/2022. I was shocked when we first walked in having paid $225 direct to the motel. Immediately the room(s) had a tired sense of the 1970s about it. It is a collection of small rooms and half-rooms with no flow and no aspect to the lake. We did have a nice view of the lake if we went outside which was an open terrace shared by other guests. The place has had a "make-over" and the quality of the work is terrible. I include photos of the mosaic tiling as examples of this and there was also a leak from the shower in the bathroom and other fittings etc have been attached in a crooked way. The private pool we had was very old, once again a 1970s style pool. The larger pool complex for other guests did not look inviting. I made the booking in a hurry and was prepared to pay for something which sounded quite special but we were deeply disappointed in it. Not recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had such an amazing time staying at the lodge. Beautiful watching the sunset over the lake at the little lookout and the room was exactly what we needed for our getaway. The private hot tubs were an absolute treat, especially at night! Not to mention the lovely staff and the heated pool which were the icing on the cake. See you next time! :D

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Spent a week here. Was very happy with our stay and would happily use them again. Staff were helpful and friendly. Room was very well maintained. The room came fully equipped with plates, pots and a microwave which ment we could eat in if we wanted to. Private hot tub was deffinly a high light. Having the air con unit directly over the bed was also very nice at night as we went during summer. Would 100% recommend for both a long term stay or just a couple nights, had no issues at all.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Upon arrival we were greeted by the lady at the office. She was warm and welcoming and we felt at home instantly. She kept us fully informed and showed genuine interest in getting to know who we were. Of course the room was stunning, a great size, with a great view and the spa was just divine! But the highlight of our stay was the lovely lady. Thank you so much for accommodating us ☺️
