Relaxing Hot Tub

I absolutely loved the hot tub at Anchorage Resort! It was fantastic to unwind after a long day, and the view overlooking Lake Taupo during sunset made the experience even more special. The warm water was a perfect retreat, and the atmosphere was calming. It was definitely one of the highlights of my stay.

Spacious and Clean Rooms

The room I stayed in was incredibly spacious, which was a pleasant surprise. It was spotlessly clean and well-equipped with everything I needed, including a fridge, microwave, and oven. I also appreciated the comfortable beds and the overall cozy ambiance of the apartment. It made my stay very enjoyable and relaxing.

Family-Friendly Facilities

I took my family with me, and the heated pool was a major hit with the kids! They had such a great time splashing around. The designated children's area made it safe and fun for them. As a parent, it’s always a relief to find accommodations that cater well to families, and this resort exceeded my expectations.

We had an incredible stay at the Anchorage Resort. The friendly welcome from Amos set a warm tone for our visit, and our lake view room was spacious and spotless. A highlight was the breakfast delivered to our room, which was delightful. The location by the lake was serene, though the laundry facilities were a nice touch after a week on the road. Overall, it was a fantastic stopover that we can't wait to return to!
