Acacia Lake View Motel is just 300-metres from Taupo Town Centre and a 5 minute Tauhara Golf Course. Taupo Airport is a 10-minute drive away. Incredible motel right at the town center of Taupo.

Very helpful, informative and most of all kind. Each room has a parking spot.

I loved the story of the motel that was provided in the folder. It is obvious to see that this motel is a labor of love for this family. Everything about the room was fresh, modern and very clean. We arrived late and really appreciated the welcome reception we received.
