We had a wonderful stay at Serenity Cottage! The home was spotless, beautifully presented, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were very comfortable, and we loved the cozy living space for relaxing in the evenings.The location was perfect, peaceful and quiet, yet only a short drive into Taupo. It really lived up to its name, the cottage felt calm and relaxing from the moment we arrived.Our hosts were fantastic too, with clear communication that made check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free.We left feeling refreshed and will definitely look to stay again on our next Taupo trip. Highly recommended!I wish we knew that the property does provide a XL dog cage this would have saved us bring ours.
