We moved to here after staying elsewhere in Taupo. We stayed in an ensuite cabin and found that the resort has all that you would expect from a good holiday park. Everything seemed quite clean. Unfortunately it is on the outskirts of Taupo, so it is better to have your own transport. To enter the thermal pools it costs a... more

My friend and I went to Taupo for a Girl's pampering weekend. I had seen the De Bretts Website and they had a Spa Indulgence Package that sounded good. It included accommodation in one of their 2 bedroom spa chalets, a facial or massage, mineral soak, breakfast at the Bistro Lago restaurant next door, bottle of wine and a small... more

We stayed in a spa chalet that had two bedrooms. It was reasonably new, a little tight but ok. We had two adults and two children. I picked debretts as it has great thermal pools that we went to at night for a relaxing soak. I liked not having to get in the car to go to the pools. We... more

My wife and I spent two nights at Taupo De Bretts in a cottage in early January. It was clean and modestly equipped. The camp sites appeared somewhat cramped.

We stayed at DeBretts on a famly holiday with relatives out from overseas. What a fantastic decision. So much for our kids to do, clean tidy and reasonably priced accommodation, amazingly friendly staff, and Thermal Hot Pools right next door too. What a place! more

We were booked for a self contained unit which has a queen size bed and a double decker bed, a sofa, a small dining table that sits 4 persons and a kitchen. That aside, if you didn't feel like doing your own cooking, debretts has an eatery which serves food till... more

In January 2007 our extended family group of 7 adults and 6 young children aged 6 and under spent a delightful week at the De Bretts Resort Thermal park. We had booked three self contained units so only needed to take our clothing and food. I also packed plastic plates, cups and bowls for the littlies. Most days we spent... more

Expect extremely poor and inexperienced service if you decide to stay here. You're better off staying elsewhere, as you'll get better value for money. more
