Way too old, furnishing old and dirty, the couch was sunken as base in one side broken. Just the bathroom is ok, rest very unpleasantly worn out and dirty. Ok if spending limited time, like sleep and shower. Not worth the price when over $200.

We loved the pool. Nice warm daily swim with pool towels in box beside pool. An extra plug for toaster/jug would be good. Only 2 towels supplied for 3 of us. The large glass panel above curtains in lounge and bedroom let a lot of light in and warmth out which made it hard to heat. A curtain there would be great. Also longer curtains in small bedroom as cool air comes through on face when sleeping. Tennis courts also a bonus. No reception as being renovated but had all we needed through millennium.

The room was very tidy and clean, equiped with everything you need. My friend insisted to wash again all the dishes, but she is just a clean freak I guess. I couldn't find an ice tray in the fridge, but we got unlimited supply of ice from the hotel bar next door. Staff is very friendly and helpfull. There is an outdoor pool with nice worm water. The visitors are also welcome to use the gym, sauna and the pool in the nieghbouring Millenium hotel. Overall I had a wonderful time and rest. Highly recommend the hotel. The best rooms are with the lake view:-)

The room itself was out dated. I don’t mind. The room was dirty. Spider webs on the ceilings, sticky mess on the floor at the fridge, hair and food debris inside the kitchen drawers, cups and plates still had hard pieces of food on it. Floor in bathroom had hair and debris, toilet had stains. We hooked this motel to use the facilities which we ended up never using as the outside spa pool is freazing and the covered spa pool is locked. To get a key from the neighboring hotel you have to walk through your room to their desk and back the same way because reception at the Oasis is not minded it’s locked and all exit gates are locked. It’s terrible do not stay here

Room was fairly clean. A deeper clean of bathroom, kitchen areas would be nice ie. Mold etc. Decor is a bit tired and being winter time the room struggles to keep warm. Thankfully there were 2 heaters to keep up.
However, apart from this, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location was great for us next to the lake, pool was a lovely temperature and staff were helpful. We will likely return 🙂

Although the whole place is getting tired it’s still good value and priced right.
Had to go to next door reception to check in at 3pm as usual reception was closed for renovations.
Our lakeside location and view was well worth the little extra cost even in the winter.
Heat pump not working but suitable alternatives served instead.
Thank you

We recently stayed at Oasis Beach Motel in Taupo and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The standout feature is undoubtedly its exceptional location, directly facing the lake. Waking up in the morning to a stunning view of Lake Taupo and the surrounding mountains through the large glass doors in the bedroom was simply breathtaking. The scenery alone makes this property worth considering, and it is hard to beat the peaceful atmosphere and incredible outlook.

The only downside is that the property is showing its age and could benefit from some renovations and modernisation. However, despite being older, the room was comfortable, clean, and well-equipped with all the amenities we needed. Considering the budget-friendly price and the unbeatable lakefront location, we have no real complaints and would happily stay here again.

Heat pump is dead, the carpets need attention, as you open the doors, they was a bad smell of either moisture or unclean carpets or maybe doors were never opened for a while.

We had a 2 bedroom lake view room which we absolutely loved . The view was magnificent and the kids loved that the wildlife was outside our door. Public access is outside your door though but that didn’t really worry us. I would definitely advise to pay the extra for the lake view rooms.

The room was clean and tidy and had everything we needed.

My daughters and I loved being able to swim in the heated pools and spas especially considering the weather wasn’t very good.
Being able to use the facilities at the Oasis and the millennium as they share was awesome.

Staff were friendly and helpful.

For the price we paid , the view, the 2 bedroom room we were in and the facilities for value of money Oasis would have to be one of the best accomodations we have stayed in in Taupo. We usually have to pay a lot more at other places. The venue elsewhere may be flasher but you definitely have to pay the extra for that..

We will definitely be back.

I liked the hotel being on the lake and out of the downtown area. Can't swim in the lake though. Very rocky. We had a car so were able to drive. Room was nice, clean. Little kitchen was convenient. Staff was friendly and helpful. only negative was that if your room on the pool side it's open to all the rooms on the other side. No privacy unless you have the curtain closed. But still nice place. I would stay again.

We had a great room right on the corner, lake front and loved it! Staff were friendly, pool was lovely and warm, and having access to the millennium next door made life easy with young kids.
Only downfall was the windows in the back bedroom with the two beds are window shutters (sorry don’t know the proper name) so you could hear a lot of noise from people being outside / in their back rooms which woke the kids a lot at night. And the front door couldn’t be locked from the inside so not safe with escaping toddlers that can reach the low handle.

What a fab view. Unlike most others in Taupo, THIS motel is on the lakefront, not across the road. We opted for a lake view unit, and it was wothwhile. And to top it all off, it is basically part of the Millenium Hotel next door, so we could have ordered room service and used the gym! A shame we were only passing through, so only one night. Highly recommended.

Staff were terrible, room was so noisy from the pool lines running under the room. Sounded like bubbling pipes. Called reception and after some convincing they changed our room, which wasn’t much better. They said we’d have to wait for the manager to bring us some keys for the room. That never happend, no we had no keys and couldn’t lock or unlock our room. The rooms havnt been updated since it was built in the 60s

Rooms are out dated and uncomfortable, and are sprayed with far too much air freshener. Your money is better spent elsewhere.

The Oasis Beach Motel is a poor cousin to the Millennium Hotel (which owns it) next door. It has a beautiful lakeside location, but you need a lakeside unit before you get to enjoy that view. Otherwise, you may as well stay in a cheaper motel in one of Taupo's backstreets. The majority of the Oasis Beach Motel's units do not have a lake view. Reception is only staffed from 8.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. Outside those hours, all things Reception are done at the Millennium Hotel, where the Reception is said to be open 24/7. Housekeeping was of a good standard, and staff nice and friendly. I'd recommend it for the price I paid through Trivago, but manage your expectations, and remember you get what you pay for. I'd stay there again in a lakeside unit.

The unit was clean, staff fine. But we have been staying at the Oasis for many years now and the unit is showing its age and looking tired. The pool is a real asset but a few tiles missing.

Great stay, friendly staff. Issue with bathroom/shower water not draining away, they offered to move us but was happy to stay. Needs some attention before next guests.

Wasnt worth what I paid. Been to better for less. Room I got wasnt the room kn the pictures. Shower was crusty and water didnt drain properly. Rat poo in the kitchen cupboarda and the pool was not clean. Also the spa wasnt hot. Reception not manned during weekends so we couldnt get a bath towel and we had to walk all the way to the other hotel for things. Not ideal

Similar to all the other reviews the Oasis Motel is on borrowed time i stayed in 718 a one bedroom unit that faced the pool this can be noisy with family groups until 8.00pm .
the unit itself was clean with cooking facilities the negitive was the over-powering stench of the cheap cleaning products used daily , tried having the windows and door open but couldn't escape the smell

Nice 1 bedroom apartment with sky+
Lakefront, heated pool and 2 hot tubs. The indoor hot tub was nice but could do with a clean. The water was quite dirty and It had a thick line of black mould around it which damaged our swimsuits. I did let reception know so hopefully they will sort it.
Housekeeping came in whilst we were out and did a good tidy and washed our cups which was nice of them.
