Review of Tui Oaks Motel
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 16 Jan 2019
Room was basic but very clean and had everything we needed. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. We popped in on the offchance they would have a room early in January - staff were very apologetic the only room they had didn't have lake views. Didn't matter to us and we were very happy with the price
Date of stay: January 2019
Room Tip: Lake view rooms are obviously desirable but ours with no view had no road noise either
Trip type: Travelled on business

We stayed 2 nights here after being bitterly disappointed by our original booking at a nearby property. We popped in on the off chance they had s vacancy at the busiest time of the year and imagine our surprise when the lively lady said yes due to an unexpected cancellation. Lovely large 1 bedroom unit beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean. This is a credit to the proprietors. Just over the road from beautiful Lake Taupo and a swim is a must do for everyone who stops here in the summertime. A short walk from the town centre. Everything they promise on the website is correct and not only that the price is so so reasonable. We would highly recommend Tui Oaks to everyone and given the chance we will be back.

Great motel with a view of the lake. Spacious rooms, friendly staff and good location. Do take the room facing the lake for a fantastic view. There is also ample parking space, and a few mins drive from the town.

My family of 6 stayed for a night at Tui Oaks. I liked that the bathroom was very clean and well maintained. We could use the washing machine and dryer for free. Service was prompt and friendly! One of the better motels we have stayed in. We loved the view of the lake from our unit. It was lovely to see the Singappre flag being raised: up front! : )

We used Tui Oaks to break the long road journey north from Wellington. Its a good location, right on the water front and with everything you need.

Found the room layout a little odd in that with the family room you have to go through the bathroom to the second bedroom, which can become a bottle-neck at times.

We arrived really late and the communication with the reception to get our key and room was really helpful and accommodating.

It was our second stay in Tui Oaks and we'd definitely recommend and use the again.

Room tip: The Lake View really is nice.

We found this great motel right on the lake and instead of one night ended up staying 3! It’s modern and clean apartments have everything you could need plus a view to die for. We walk to the shops and restaurants as well as the harbour water activities. Love it!
