With its elevated position overlooking Lake Taupō and the snow-capped Kaimanawa Ranges, Acacia Cliffs Lodge is a boutique haven of contemporary New Zealand style, comfort, and warmth. Four elegant bedrooms, each with either sweeping lake vistas or a peaceful garden outlook, feature private furnished decks, super king/twin feather-and-down beds with fine linen, and spacious modern ensuites. 

Bathrooms include walk-in rainforest showers, double basins, underfloor heating, and plush bathrobes, while the garden suite offers the added luxury of a romantic freestanding bath. Guests also enjoy in-room specialty teas and coffee, entertainment systems, and complimentary Wi-Fi.

Evenings begin with a glass of New Zealand wine and canapés hosted in the lodge, where you can relax and share stories while gazing at spectacular sunsets. Mornings start with a gourmet cooked or continental breakfast prepared with seasonal, local produce. Dinner is available by prior arrangement, or a range of cafés, restaurants, and bars await in Taupō, just 10 minutes away.

Take a walk along the nearby Mapara Bush Track to the lake through lush native forest, or explore the many experiences Taupō offers: trout fishing with expert guides, scenic flights over the volcanic plateau, golf at Jack Nicklaus’ Kinloch Club or Wairakei International, and the world-renowned Tongariro Alpine Crossing. At Acacia Cliffs Lodge, genuine Kiwi hospitality and relaxed luxury combine to create a truly memorable stay.
