Perched above Lake Taupo in sought-after Acacia Bay, this exceptional property delivers a compelling combination of lifestyle, income, and long-term potential. Home to the established Flying Trout Boutique Lodge, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven hospitality business in one of New Zealand’s premier destinations—while enjoying the benefits of an extraordinary private residence.
Currently operating as a successful boutique lodge, the property offers immediate income with an established brand, strong guest following, and repeat clientele. For the astute buyer, the foundations are firmly in place to continue, enhance, or reposition the business to suit your vision.
The lodge comprises four beautifully appointed guest suites, each with lake views and private terraces, creating an intimate and highly sought-after guest experience. A chef’s kitchen, elegant dining room, bar, cosy billiard room, and additional lounge spaces provide flexibility for both guest hosting and private use, while the tennis court and landscaped grounds elevate the offering to true retreat status.

It is a location that consistently attracts both domestic and international visitors, underpinning the property’s ongoing appeal as an accommodation business.
Beyond the business, the home itself offers refined, resort-style living. Three double bedrooms each feature their own ensuite, complemented by a fourth bedroom, family bathroom, and powder room—ideal for owners seeking to live on-site while hosting guests, or to enjoy the property purely as a luxurious private retreat.
