Kingfisher is a 2 bedroom plus sleep-out Kuratau holiday home, situated in an amazing position on the Kuratau River... Relax on the sun drenched deck with the water on your doorstep. Moor your boat at the private jetty or kayak up the beautiful Kuratau River or 100m down into Lake Taupo. Three kayaks and life jackets included on site for use.

This Kuratau holiday home has a cosy open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, with an open Jetmaster fireplace (firewood supplied) for cooler stays. Kingfisher is very handy to the ski slopes, only 45 minutes away! When the weather is warmer, enjoy summer living and BBQ's with the family on the sunny deck!

Bedroom 1 at this Kuratau accommodation is located off the lounge and is fitted with a double bed. Bedroom 2 is off the kitchen and is fitted with a set of single bunk beds. Located just beside the main house, the sleep-out offers further sleeping with a double bunk set.

The family bathroom is located off bedroom 2.

Conveniently located to local attractions and amenities, including skiing, biking, and the lake, this tidy Kuratau base is a great option for a family break away.

For a peaceful river retreat... Kingfisher welcomes you!
As the property has unfenced access to the river, adults should closely supervise young children while outside to ensure they are safe around water.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

    The best thing about the property is the location, which is amazing. And the supply of kayaks, lifejackets etc. If you are bringing a dog, it's worth knowing that the area is over-run with rabbits. Not sure why there is a reference to a winery in the listing. It's a basic batch (and small) but clean and everything you need. The outdoor set up is excellent. We'd come back again for sure.

    The property is in an very nice location...right on a very picturesque river. My group felt it was more of a fish camp than a house. If you plan to stay outside on the deck or the river 90% of the time you will probably love it. If you have to spend a significant amount of time inside you will find it cramped, with worn-out furniture and uncomfortable beds. It is operated by a management company and not the owner. When I messaged questions I received canned/chatbot type of responses. There were no special touches indicated that they really cared about their guests.

    The location of the bach is magical. Directly on the river with amazing views of the water and the cliffs. The batch is lovely with very well equipped kitchen. A bit small but very nice and quaint for the 4 of us. Unfortunately we had fairly bad weather so we weren't able to enjoy sitting outdoors as much as we would have liked. Maybe a bit over priced, but definitely a lovely spot. Rose, Remi, Ben and Kayla

    The heat was on for our arrival, and once the fire was on, we were toasty. This property would be great all year round. If you're looking for a classic kiwi getaway, this is the place for you!
