The Shoe Box is a modern warm small town house. It is super handy to Taupo town and is set up in such a way that it is easy to use and is nice and quiet. The Shoe Box is down a driveway off the street as part of a 5 new town houses. It is located near the Waikato river and you can see people bungy jump out of the top bedroom window. If you are looking for an easy place to find and get to with hosts that have lived in Taupo for over 25 years this is the place for you.
We have been hosting guests in the Shoe Box for over 2 years (AirBNB) and have had 5 star reviews. We have teenage kids who go to school just up the hill so we use the Shoe Box when we have after school activities as we live about 20 minutes out of town. If you have any questions about Taupo we can probably help out. Feel free to reach out. We look forward to hosting you. Regards, Katey and Mark
Nice and quiet. Easy walk to Taupo town or along the river.
