Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Was really difficult to rate this. Wanted to give it a 4 for the course and place, but then wanted to give it a 1 or 2 for the price. For a family of four, it's a steep outing considering the lack of maintenance the place has had recently. Was good fun even through the wife beat me by a point. Need to make sure you go when it's relatively quiet otherwise you're always waiting at the next hole for the players in front of you and sometimes even people behind you are waiting at the same hole..

Haven't stayed in Taupo for several years but saw it close by to our accommodation and decided to have a game. Beautifully maintained and interesting course. Not overly busy due to Covid so enjoyed the chance to play at a superb Taupo attraction. We are retired but fun for all ages and good value for money.

Beautifully kept mini golf course, very tidy with a good variety of twists and turns and levels of difficulty.
Plenty of fun to be had for the whole family.
A complimentary free round card is rewarded with a hole in one at hole 18.
Well worth spending the afternoon there.

This is a great mini golf course- immaculately cared for. While we were there the manager was often out removing leaves etc from the course.
Smooth course with lovely views across the lake- super close to town too.

Such a great mini golf course! Challenging, fun, and a great way to spend an hour! Enjoyed it so much we did it again the following day - got my ass kicked both games, but still had a great time! Very popular, so there is sometimes a bit of waiting involved as you try and get around the course.

Great mini golf course with superb views over the lake and mountains. The course is beautifully maintained, and easy parking right by entrance.

We stumbled across this mini golf while walking along the edge of lake Taupo, it is a really fun course! It was $12 for an adult to play. There are 18 holes and you get a sign at each hole advising which number the hole was, what the par was and a pen so you could update your score sheet as you went along! Really good fun, would definitely recommend for a hour or so down by the lake in Taupo!

Mini golf is always fun regardless - which means that people will still pay to go.
In Auckland you find themed places and well looked after for $8 bucks, whereas in Taupō with only one option, we’re forced to pay $12. Locals rates would be a good idea.
The gardens look bushy and no one seem to care - in fact both times I’ve been there the treatment from the person serving was far from being a good customer service.
My suggestion would be: make sure you welcome your guests with a smile and show that you have passion for what you do. Clean up the course, fix the edges in some holes, create more, different, fun challenges. Make the place a fun place to be.
