TAUPO, NEW ZEALAND – The Point Villas

Natural beauty & stunning accommodation awaits you at The Point Villas.

Located within the exclusive Whakamoenga Point Estate, above the blue-green waters of iconic Lake Taupo, The Point Villas have been named in Conde Nast's Hotlist as one of the 80 best new hotels of the world.

Its high rating is understandable. Ten minutes drive from the Taupo township, The Point Villas feature two villas designed to blend in with the surrounding natural beauty. Interiors feature state of the art furniture and original New Zealand artwork.

Each villa accommodates two couples or a family of four, with both master bedrooms opening on to double glazed bathrooms that afford the sensation of bathing outdoors. Privacy is ensured by offering guests exclusive use of the facilities whether one or both villas are booked.

Located in 24 hectares of native bush, walking is one of many activities on offer. There are two floodlit tennis courts plus croquet, petanque & kayaking.

Local fishing guide Brent Pirie from FlyFish Taupo (www.flyfishtaupo.co.nz) is available to organise trout or heli-fishing, rafting tours and even 'how to fish' clinics.

You can either cook your catch in the state of the art kitchen located within your Villa or use the services of award winning chef Prue Campbell. The Point Villas has a special relationship with Prue and her company (www.Yumfoodcompany.co.nz). Using only the freshest of ingredients, Yum offers everything from gourmet food-to-go such as duck confit & dauphinois potatoes or dinner party treats ie vanilla brulee or panna cotta. Prue will also quote chef catering services for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

That's part of the joy of The Point Villas, you can simply relax and do nothing or take advantage of the many specialist services on offer.

Information about Taupo: Taupo, located at the northern edge of Lake Taupo, on New Zealand's north island is an extraordinarily beautiful destination. In essence Taupo is a resort town where people gather to go fishing, skydiving, bunjee jumping, swimming and boating. Taupo is healthy fun. No one knows for certain what Taupo, a Maori word, means. Today Taupo is a popular holiday destination. When visitors aren't booking themselves into the Taupo Bunjy office they will be visiting the excellent Taupo Regional Museum and Art Gallery. Taupo has lots of excellent holiday-style accommodation.
