Nothing

Beautiful, quiet and private. Clean, warm, comfortable and pet friendly.

We liked everything.

Lovely place, amazing view, great hosts. It is quite compact, which I quite liked. It has a great layout, warm with the heat pump going, and has a wood stove as well. It is well equipped in every aspect. It is in a lovely quiet place on the edge of Acacia Bay.

It doesn't have a dishwasher, that is really the only "negative" thing I can say about it and for me that is not a problem at all.

It's really beautiful, Clean and has everything you Need to make it feel like a home away from home.

Home bake cookies. Time spent with hosts and commonality of conversation. Able to take our pet

Beautiful location on a beautiful property - was private, quiet, and came with a great view. Warm and comfortable beds. Lovely, helpful hosts.

Suggest bringing some slippers for the cooler months - the bathroom tiles can get a bit chilly underfoot.

Absolutely loved this place! The hosts, Craig and Lisa, are super lovely. Gave us a lot of tips about what to do/see in the area. Very fast in replying and welcoming :-) Would love to come back in the future

The rooms at Birdsong were beautifully laid out and comfortable, with full amenities and with a gorgeous view of the eastern Taupo countryside. Our hosts, Lisa and Craig, were friendly and welcoming, going to great lengths to insure that we had a pleasant stay, which we did. They made several recommendations of activities we could consider doing during our visit to Taupo, and those that we did turned out to be splendid. Altogether, staying at Birdsong was a wonderful experience, and we heartily recommend it for others who visit Taupo.

As stated, we had a wonderful time at Birdsong, and we have no complaints about it.

The location was perfect, so peaceful. Lisa and Craig are amazing hosts. They let us meet their two sweet doggos, and even invited us to come feed their sheep (which our oldest loved) the house is beautifully kept and they even let us make use of their pool. They are very accommodating and offered the use of a baby bed for no extra charge and to our delight also found they had a highchair for us to use too.

The bed for me (chantelle) was too hard, however Lisa was amazing and promptly put a topper on it for me with did end up helping. The shower has no door, which made it a bit cold for showing our bubs, other than those, everything was wonderful.

Everything from the accommodating hosts, to the beautiful country valley views, to the beautifully appointed suite. The hosts were very outgoing & accommodating.

Our stay was too short here!

Location, very well equipped. Wonderful, welcoming hosts

From what we read we expected 2 separate bedrooms. However, there were 2 single beds in the living area, the bedroom was partially walled. Had to walk through the bedroom for the bathroom. The set-up would be perfect for a couple, but for two friends travelling it lacked privacy.

Wirklich großartig!!! Absolut außergewöhnlicher Wohnkomfort. Wir waren begeistert und haben uns extrem willkommen und wohlgefühlt. Jeder der hier übernachtet kann sich glücklich schätzen. Lisa und Craig waren super liebe, aufgeschlossene, nette und zuvorkommende Gastgeber. Falls wir nochmal wieder nach Neuseeland reisen sollten, werden wir wieder versuchen bei den beiden unterzukommen. (Und bei den beiden süßen Hunden)

Peaceful and quiet up in the hills. Had everything we needed, well equipped. Craig and Lisa were lovely and very helpful.

A quiet location a short drive from the town centre of Taupo. The accommodation has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Craig was a friendly host (we didn’t meet Lisa during our stay) very helpful about the area. The Bar and Brasserie just a short drive away serves good food and has a nice local atmosphere.

Craig & Lisa are the best hosts and the property was lovely. Private yet welcoming.

There was nothing not to like.

Very clean and very comfortable beds. Nice quiet location and park at the door.

It was more 1 bedroom and large living area rather than 2 bedrooms.

The space is great and well equipped. The hosts and their dogs are lovely

Lovely well equipped home away from home. Great Location and very peaceful and quiet. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

WiFi a little patchy at times. I think they are using wireless and we had a lot of rain throughout most of the stay. May have been a factor.

Peaceful, lovely hosts, excellent facilities. Cute dogs.

.

Great hosts that were welcoming. Lovely property

Craig and Lisa are very kind, caring and friendly. We are treated as friends by them. We are the house is extremely clean and very carefully designed to host guests. We we have very comfortable time there. Thank you very very much for helping us to choose out travelling destinations.. Many thanks Anne and Jenny

Peaceful location, very tidy and well-appointed apartment

Very well outfitted contemporary accommodation in a picturesque rural setting. The hosts were excellent.

It is located 10 minutes drive from downtown Taupō, although this was actually a major advantage during our stay as we could avoid traffic and crowds during the busy New Year’s period.

Location Clean Facilities

Beds too soft Advertised as 2 bedrooms but actually open plan studio with 2 single beds in lounge. No privacy in main bedroom.

Everything - location, facilities, and comfort. Scenic environment.

Lack of privacy in the bedroom and lounge, especially when you are with teenage kids. But, still very good for couples with young children.

Die Wohnung ist sehr geschmackvoll und komfortabel eingerichtet. Sie war absolut sauber und man fühlte sich sofort wohl. Sie liegt sehr schön und ruhig und man hat einen tollen Blick in die Landschaft. Insbesondere die Gastgeber sind äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend und geben gute Ausflugstips. Wir können die Unterkunft nur empfehlen und würden die jederzeit wieder buchen.

Extremely well presented property set in a wonderful location and provided cracking facilities. Owners were very friendly and accommodating

It’s was a real shame that Booking.com had this property advertised to include a free massage per guest for the visit which was one of the deciding factors when choosing this property, however that wasn’t available when we asked. The owners explained this was an error by booking.com and not them and it’s being looked into.

Well laid out , very clean 👌, good directions to get there. Good parking and the owners are a wonderful, caring couple very happy to help out if needed , totally approachable and it was fantastic price for a whole apartment well exceeded our expectations. Nice and quite. Will definitely book again if needing a place to stay in Taupo 10 plus. Highly recommended 👌👍

There was nothing that we didn't like it was awesome

Lovely quiet location, not too far from Taupo but definitely need a car. Lovely friendly hosts, kindly offered the use of their pool and spa. Accommodation very clean and comfortable.

Nothing! All I could say is that maybe mention the dogs in the listing, they didn't bother us at all, but there may be people who would need to know. (Disclaimer- it may have been mentioned in the listing and I just didn't notice!)

Location - Not far from the Taupo center; The room is clean and quite, the view is nice;

Need to request for laundry service needs.

とても素敵なお部屋でした。 キッチンもつかいやすく、4名で泊まりましたが、 大満足です。暖炉も最高でした。 オーナーも、素敵な方！　朝、羊の餌やりを見せてくれました。犬が2頭いて、人懐っこく可愛いです。

キッチンの鍋やフライパンが、 もう少しサイズが大きいものがあると良かった。 小さい鍋でなんとかやりくりしました。

Very nice and helpfull hosts.

Lisa & Craig were so friendly and gave us loads of info on places to walk & eat. Beautiful home with garden & pool. Free use of the washing machine and drying facilities. Lots of essentials provided like milk, olive oil, filtered water etc.

Nothing. It was all perfect. THANKS 😊

This place is heaven on earth because the owners, Craig and Lisa, have set up Birdsong as a home away from home. From the moment you arrive, you feel peace and serenity of the area. Birdsong combines comfort, cleanliness and beautifully decorated rooms. Little extras, like jams in the fridge, were a bonus treat. What a special place, that we hope to return for more than two nights, as a week here would be amazing, as Taupō is so beautiful! Craig and Lisa are people who are willing to help with anything you need. We had assistance from them with special request that ensured our stay was even more memorable. Such kind owners :-)

Beautiful, well-maintained, cozy property located in very scenic and quiet area. Highly recommended

Property is spatious, clean, tidy and it looks new. The view is great.

Lisa and Craig are wonderful hosts. Welcoming and helpful. Property is in a beautiful, quiet and picturesque location. Ideally located for exploring Taupō and even the ski fields

Very neat and very cosy.

Everything was perfect

Lovely hosts, excellent facilities, well-located.

I absolutely adore Songbird Taupo. The hosts have created a home away from home, which feels really comforting. The hosts Lisa and Craig are your Classic Kiwi couple. Lisa's big bubbly smile and Craig's can do, she'll be right attitude adds to the familiarity and comfort as you would feel with a trusted neighbor you've know for years. I can't say enough about this place and the hosts I highly recommend Songbird Taupo Accommodation. We will be back

The apartment is located in a wonderful rural setting close to the town centre. It was peaceful and quiet. The apartment is very comfortable and well equipped with two televisions, a coffee machine and a heat pump. Lisa suggested several tourist attractions, and we visited most of them. Very enjoyable. We will definitely return to Birdsong when we next visit Taupo.

Nothing

Birdsong is beautiful, comfortable and spacious and feels like a home away from home. There is a fully equiped kitchen with basic cooking needs, lovely jams in the fridge and a Weber BBQ out door area. Many other little extra bits and pieces to enjoy too.

It is 15 minutes away from Taupo central and 5 minutes from Acacia Bay which suited us but perhaps not everyone.

Criag and Lisa were wonderful hosts, welcoming us to their lovely hillside property and giving us all sorts of tips about the best things to do nearby and the next stage of our road trip. The apartment was beautifully presented with all the right amenities for a very comfortable stay.

Nothing.

Clean and spacious. Felt like a home, away from home. The sounds of the countryside.

Just out of the hustle and bustle, but so easy to get anywhere.

Lovely hosts, beautiful area and comfy and cosy accommodation. We also appreciated being able to bring our furry family member!

Great outlook, and comfortable.

Nothing specifically

Very cosy, the extremely accommodating owners very kindly left lots of excess towels, and toiletries for use.

Unfortunately no view of the lake from the property, a short drive to Acacia bay is the nearest access to the lake.

Lisa and Graig are truly fantastic hosts! From the very first hour, I felt completely at home. They were incredibly supportive during my stay for a triathlon competition, always going above and beyond to assist with anything I needed—whether it was recommending an excellent restaurant or pointing me to a secluded beach for swimming. The property’s location is exceptional, perched on top of a hill with breathtaking views, yet conveniently close to town. The apartment has been recently renovated, and every detail, from the kitchenware to the beds, is of the highest standard. I only wish I could have stayed longer!
