We stayed in the Shakespeare Suite - a lovely spacious  room with a sofa and two chairs at one end, a large comfortable bed and large ensuite.
Mary was a warm & welcoming host. Tea And coffee making facilities were available in the room together with wine glasses, outside the room was a fridge with fresh milk home-made biscuits and additional tea and coffee. The decor was charming with additional touches to make it feel really homely.
We ate an excellent cooked breakfast with the other guests in the house kitchen. it was nice to chat to fellow holidaymakers and the Hosts provided lots of additional information about the area.

A very comfortable stay

Beautiful home tastefully furnished with all amenities in pretty peaceful surroundings yet only a few yards from a great restaurant and less than 10 mins easy drive from the town.
Comfortable and warm (winter stay) with many choices of fresh and home-made food for breakfast. All delicious.
Mary and Ian are friendly and hospitable with lots of local knowledge and make the stay feel like a home away from home. Thoroughly recommend. We really enjoyed our stay. We arrived as guests and left as friends.

Home away from home plus plus

Not only did The Loft have the rooms we needed, but Mary was on hand to welcome us and settle us in, and gave us the best of the best.  From the welcome, at the open front door  everything was "top shelf" Quality. The Loft would be one of the few places we were sorry to leave!   

Gracious,  Thoughtful, and Kind would be my three words to describe Mary and Ian as  host and Hostess.

We were called on extremely short notice to Taupo to conduct a friend's Memorial and Burial

This B and B had such good reviews but it was not to be.  We arrived late afternoon.  I should have heard alarm bells because she was not masked, did not ask to see our vaccine passes and did not require us to check in.  It was quite expensive but the breakfast had such glowing reviews.  We were shown our room, quite small by motel standards but adequate.. after I had paid she said that she was not doing breakfast because of the mandate.  No offer of a reduced rent. I later wrote asking about it but she ignored my letter.  The tea and coffee had both run out, so we left in the morning with not even a morning cuppa.  As we left the hostess told me they were not vaccinated and that is why breakfast was off.  I could have got a larger, better equipped motel unit on the foreshore for less than we paid.

Be warned.  Ask the key questions before you pay

Our stay was lovely even though cut short.Very nice room and hospitality. Will visit again. Thanks Mary for everything and your understanding. Enjoyed the breakfast and chat.Taupo was very busy Queens birthday weekend.

Excellent bnb

I was warmly welcomed by hostess Mary. The room, on the first floor was very clean and cozy.The house is close to the road and you can experience some traffic noise. I had little trouble with this myself. The breakfast was great and I enjoyed the hospitality of Mary and her mother. The house is located in Acacia Bay, just 5 minutes from Taupo.The lake and a restaurant are within walking distance.

Great B&B and friendly hosts

We stayed one night at Mary and Ian’s. We had our two separate rooms. Rooms were impeccable. We loved the themed rooms.
Breakfast was yummy especially with home made fejoa jam and relish. A real familial atmosphere. We will come back and highly recommend. Top class

Robin and Jeni 

We had 3 beautiful nights at the loft. The room was spotlessly  clean and the breakfast left nothing to be desired. Acacia Bay is 2 km out from Taupo, so a car is useful. We found Taupo to be quite central for visits to Rotorua and the Tongariro Crossing instead of changing the accomodation daily. Restaurant/Bar within walking distance. Short walk
of 5 - 10 min through parc reserve to the lakeside to go swimming.

Lovely place with lovely hosts in lovely area

So stayed here for two nights and were most comfortable apart from the noise from the road outside our room but of course nothing can be done about that. Mary and Ian are a great couple and made us feel at home, we could not have asked more from the breakfast offered, it was lovely, and set us up for the day. The Acacia Bay area is lovely and there are some lovely beaches not far from The Loft.

Amazing Hosts

Booked last minute and this was all that was available. Now I know why. Located on a busy road this is a reasonably sized house marketed as something special. Rooms are clean and basic but tired. Hosts are pleasant and welcoming. Breakfast was disappointingly basic with limited choice. Would not stay again.
