We had a lovely stay at Oreti with stunning lakefront views that were simply breathtaking. The apartment was well-equipped and had thoughtful extras, making our mornings wonderful. However, we were disturbed by the noise from the guests above us, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was a beautiful getaway, but the noise issue might be a concern for light sleepers.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at this resort. While the views of Lake Taupo were truly stunning and the apartment was spacious, I was disappointed with the outdated decor and a few aspects of the service that did not meet my expectations. The dining was a positive experience overall, but the facilities could use some improvement to match the advertised luxury. If you're seeking a rustic lake-cabin feel, it might be suitable, but don't expect true luxury here.
