About this property

Kiwi Cutie - Kuratau Bach

Kiwi Cutie is a 3-bedroom Kuratau bach. This classic Kiwi bach has loads of character, with a sunny and peaceful set-up that is just the ticket for a family stay at the lake!

This Kuratau bach includes simple open-plan living that flows onto the spacious deck - there is ample room to relax in the sun or fire up the BBQ in true Kiwi style. The generous, flat section is ideal for family games in the sun!

Bedroom 1 at this Kuratau accommodation opens onto the deck and is fitted with a super king bed. Bedroom 2 includes 1 single bunk set and a single bed. Bedroom 3 has a queen-sized bed and a trundler bed. This is a great option for up to 8 guests!

When you are not unwinding and taking in the laid-back holiday vibe, head to the lake just a hop, skip, and jump from your door. Plus, there are a number of great walking and cycle trails in the area to enjoy. Head into Taupo City or Whakapapa ski field, both just under an hour away. Turangi is even closer, just under half an hour's drive...

Your refreshing lake escape awaits, welcome to Kiwi Cutie!
Please be advised that please advise that the bath is not a proper bath tub and is more of a deep shower tray only.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.

Kuratau

There was only 3 toilet rolls for 5 people for 3 days. There wasn't any coffee. I thought at 1000 for 3 days there could have been washing powders and basic food left in the cupboards like herbs or flour. Even milk just like motels. I've stayed in a few different batches around nz and this one was one of the more expensive ones. The house was very cold for our baby as the heating was very out dated. We paid for a cleaning fee but yet were told we had to make sure the bach was left the way we found it. We had a great weekend away. But wouldn't stay in this bach again. There are similar priced baches in better condition and more quality for money. Thank u
