Amazing place, location, staff were friendly and attentive. Private Hot pools in some rooms. Loved it, would definitely return! Visited as part of honeymoon and longer trip in NZ. Best accommodation so far (been here 2 weeks)

Gables Lakefront Motel is excellent. The rooms are a nice size, always kept very clean & modern. We noticed a few updates in our room from our first stay, good to see they just keep getting better!

The views of the lake are amazing, it’s a lovely walk along the lake front to town with a coffee cart on the way.

Peter and Penny are fabulous hosts, they are absolutely lovely, they go the extra mile for guests, always out talking to guests, answering questions and making sure everyone has what they need to ensure they enjoy their stay.

An added bonus! There are picnic tables and umbrellas out the front, where you can enjoy meal times in the sun with your family.

Already booked our next stay!!

Great facilties, immaculately clean and comfortable units,friendly, helpful hosts and homely touches.
Perfect location, directly opposite the beach and close to all that Taupo has to offer but also quiet and relaxing. We will definitely stay here next time we are in Taupo.

I stayed at superior room with my boyfriend, and we definitely loved it here! The motel is just in front of the lake, so we can see the beautiful view all the time. The room is clean and modern, also there is everything what you need even the delicious homemade cookies! Penny and Peter are very friendly and kind, they absolutely give you a warm welcome. I would love to come back here again!
