Taylor's Alpine Retreat
Gather the family or your ski crew at this spacious alpine retreat just 2 minutes from Ohakune Junction and 20 minutes from Turoa Ski Field.
After a day on the mountain, soak in the 8-person spa with stunning mountain views while your EV charges in the garage (up to 22kW AC), enjoy the games room (pool, ping pong), or unwind in the oversized lounge designed for group getaways.
Perfect for ski weekends, biking, Tongariro Alpine Crossing hikers, and year-round escapes, the home sleeps up to 10 guests across 4 bedrooms with plenty of space to relax.
Note: this beautiful property is also listed on Airbnb, but we aim to be about 10% cheaper for direct bookings via our website (and we don't require 50% payment upfront).
