An exclusive lakeside experience of privacy, indulgence and delight
. . .
The Point Villas, completed November 2002, are situated at Whakamoenga Point,
an exclusive private residential estate on the shores of Lake Taupo and only 10 minutes'
drive from central Taupo.
This unspoilt, environmentally-sensitive development spanning 58 acres overlooks Lake
Taupo and beyond to the scenic mountains of Ruapehu, Tongariro, Ngauruhoe and Pihanga.
The Villas offer a level of indulgence and seclusion unsurpassed in
New Zealand, with furnishings that exude luxury and comfort . . .
This
is a dream year-round destination for trout fishing and boating, with the lake just a few
minutes' walk from the Villas. As described in Style magazine, "Whakamoenga Point
...is renowned as a favourite and prosperous fishing spot, both by fly fisherman and commercial
operators. During the spring the water is so clear that when the smelt rise to shallow waters,
you can almost touch the trout, although more conventional methods are probably more productive."
Carefully positioned amongst the native trees surrounding the lake edge to maintain the
natural growth as a screen to neighbours, the Villas capture sweeping views of beautiful
Mine Bay. The large bedrooms open into glorious Italian travertine stone and double-glazed
glass bathrooms. These give an exhilarating sense of showering or bathing outdoors in the
seclusion of the NZ native bush.
The
two Villas are available to individuals or groups for their exclusive use. Guests may totally
relax and capture the ultimate holiday experience within the spacious interiors (1900 square
feet each), cleverly designed to blend with the natural surroundings, giving a feeling
of space and privacy. The Villas are elegantly furnished with antique oak furniture and
seagrass leather lounge suites, each with two bedrooms with ensuites, large living/dining
areas, plus beautifully-appointed kitchen and full laundry.
