This is such an ace campground. Friendly staff, sparkling clean facilities, epic location next to the sea + an estuary + a forest walk. Perfect place to be based to explore this beautiful part of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Amazing dedicated staff made our weekend special, thank you! The facilities are incredible, clean and the views to enjoy whilst eating, drinking and relaxing. Ohiwa Beach Holiday Park is definitely a recommend from us and we'll book again. The Onekawa pa site is a must to do and down to Bryan's Beach and then either walk along the beach back to the camp ground or turn around and walk and enjoy the bush, birds, and gorgeous views again from another angle back to camp.

Great place to stay. Very clean and tidy camp with a lot of amenities. Only negative no closed in dining option, too open to the elements in rough weather.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and will come again.

I absolutely loved my stay here! Be sure to do the awesome loop bush walk after getting some pointers from the friendly team at the desk. The showers are great and only 50 cents. The kitchen is open with incredible views. Sites are tiered so everyone has a great view. Everything is super clean.

Absolutely whole heartedly recommend this camp ground. Great people and the beach is just beautiful. Management was great, as this was a working holiday they very kindly let me check out a little later so I could finish up my work online before heading to my next destination. Lovely place, peaceful and relaxing.

Ohiwa Holiday Park is a regular spot for us. We love it here. The welcome and friendliness is great. We are on a powered site. These are big in size. The sites are terraced which allows everyone to have a sea view. The amenities are spotless and are checked regularly during the day. There is a swimming pool there for those that don't want to go in the sea. There is a great native bush walk with great views of about 4.8kms. Thanks to all of the staff.

It was really the best place to be... It has been our first camp since we got to NZ and it was amazing. The kids loved every moment. They felt save and relaxed. One thing I would recommend is to ha e another fridge as the two in the kitchens wasn't enough. We could not pack any of our fridge stuff like yogurts, milk, salads ect in there as there were no space? That was abit disappointing. It would've been nice if there were trays for every camp ground number or something like that... But we were super happy. Wish we could stay longer hehe.

This was our first visit and we will most definitely be back. A fantastic spot. The facilities are extremely well maintained, with lots of nice personal touches around and about to make the place appealing. The cleanliness of the place was first class. We had an awesome view of the beach from our site which was a good size. Lots of things to do around and about the area to keep you entertained. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thanks

This place is the New York of camp grounds over summer. Highly populated but so freaking worth it. Super warm, safe swimming. Has the bonus of a stunning wetland and a beautiful bush walk up to an historic Māori pā site. Wonderfully serviced by friendly staff. Highly recommended.

I think this is definitely more aimed at families. It was $65 a night for two of us on a non powered camp site. You had to pay extra for the showers which I thought was a bit much after the cost of staying there was so high. The size of the pitches were generous but it felt really cramped as people used every last inch of grass for their camp set up and also had to find space for their cars. The neighbouring camp pitch parked their car on our site twice which was really annoying. The facilities were fine. It rained so bad, which is not the camp grounds fault but there is literally nothing to do on a rainy day. We called it quits after one night despite having paid for two. Looked great for a family holiday but if you are a couple traveling during peak holiday times looking for some piece and quiet there are some really nice freedom camping spots near by.

We had a lovely three nights at Ohiwa Beach Holiday Park in our van. We didn't like our allocated space and the management were happy for us to move to one that we preferred, sites seemed to be good-sized. There were several smaller ablution blocks around the campsite as well as the main one. The showers cost 50 cents for 5 minutes but were great. The kitchen had several sinks and cooktops but absolutely nothing else. Need to take your own cooking utensils and dish wash liquid. Great spot by the beach (just across the dunes) and a very short walk to the estuary and bush walks

My sister and I stayed at the ohiwa holiday park for a total of four nights. It was so peaceful and relaxing. If your a bird lover you must experience ohiwa. Tuis, king fishers, rosellas, quail, wekas, and the calls of pheasants all add to the chorus during our visit. Only one thing I would have liked to see different is to have the a way of drying hands in the toilets but not a biggy. If your thinking of visiting then do it. Its wonderful.

We went here for a short getaway with the kids. I rate this place very high. When we arrived they were really hospitable and showed us to our place quickly. Their facilities are great and have so much to do for the kids. A short walk to the beach made it easier for the little ones. I definitely recommend and would return.

In our caravan with 2 grandkids under 5, we had a wonderful 2 night stay at the Ohiwa Holiday Park. Such friendly staff and spotlessly clean amenities. The camp playground was perfect for our little campers, access to a safe beach was easy and we were there with a school group of over 70 children and we would never have known. We will be back and will be telling others about this gem of a holiday destination.

Lovely campsite, clean, well-maintained facilities and situated right beside a stunning beach. The pool was a nice alternative when not in the mood for a trip thru the dunes. Internet connection was free and the speed impressive!!!
All three kids had a blast, making friends with others their age and hanging out late into the evenings.
We arrived on the Friday of a long weekend. The place was jam-packed and had a great atmosphere. The fridges were also jam-packed - which is the only negative I can rustle up... more fridge space would have been nice :-) Lots of families headed home after the weekend which solved our fridge problem, but sadly, left the kids without their new friends.... We still had Rummikub to occupy our evenings and had a great stay over the remaining days!!!
Glad we were able to find an available spot here and hope to return.

Beautifully situated campsite right by the sea with a view of the smoking White Island. The facility is located off the highway in a very natural environment. Bush walks are possible. Clean sanitary facilities. Large grass pitches. Several paths lead through the dunes to the long sandy beach. We really enjoyed the wonderful atmosphere here. Free wifi is also available.

Loved this location and venue and the hosts we're equally as lovely.
Great for beach, bush walks, ocean/coastal views, glow worms, waterfall, peace and quiet, safe for families, kayaking and fishing
Very clean well looked after premises, comfortable beds. We stayed in the tourist flat which looks out to the beach and ocean, fully self contained with kitchen(not include oven) and bathroom ensuite. Linen provided
There are great shared facilities, a games room, trampoline, pool, kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, playgrounds and fish stations, all well looked after.
Loved off peak season and it's so fairly priced. Just take food if you go for self contained units 😊

My favorite campground in New Zealand. It's clean, has got spacious sites for campervans, motorhomes and caravans. Free wifi, showers 0.50$.
Staff is always very friendly and helpful. Bring your own pots and kitchen utensils, as there are none in the kitchen.
The beach is stunning. I came for one night and ended up staying six. Could be busy at weekends and will be packed in holidays but quiet at night nonetheless.

Do not rent Tourist Flat 1. The online photos are from Tourist Flat 2 which is bigger. We feel this is misleading advertisement as you expect the tourist flats to be similar in size. Flat 1 is too small for 3 people. Bunk bed ladder health and safety issue as you cannot get in a safe way in and out of the bed. There is no space for bags. Rat trap at back of unit. Noise during day and evening from glass recycling. In the first day there were fireworks at night. Wifi worked only intermittently on Android tablet, not on Android phone or Windows 10. Wifi so unreliable that after a while we used mobile hotspot on Android mobile phone. TV cable broken and shield wires sticking out. Had to buy rope in local hardware shop to hang our wash on.
Be very careful with the kitchen hub. It looks like an induction hub but it is not. The hub stays very hot for a long time and you can see something glowing under the glass while cooking.
We expected a bit more from a cabin paying almost $200 per night and decided to leave one day early.

Excellent Holiday Park - Great facilities, clean and well maintained.
We were disappointed as a couple with no children to be given a site that was surrounded by families with lots of young children, and adjacent to the play ground.
One other suggestion, is that certain sites are natural 'cut through' points for the beach. Maybe a designated pathway, so individuals don't ride/walk through your site?
Overall - GREAT stay, thanks, Jason and Vanessa

A beautiful camp site set in sand dunes, with a long stretch of unspoilt beach at your doorstep, and pohutukawa clad hills behind. What's not to like? Places like this are national treasures, keeping world class beaches within the reach of anybody with a car and a tent. The people who run this place are as friendly and helpful as you'll meet; it's clean, well kept, and did I mention the beach? Just outstanding.

Got a Standard Cabin with my fiance for 3 nights. Bunk bed with a double on the bottom and single on top. Fridge for beer and a jug for boiling water, along with a small table and two chairs – everything you need :)
Beautiful setting right in there with nature. Great walk over the hill right next to the campground – glow worms at night! Table tennis was great fun (but bring your own balls or they're $1 each from reception). I'm 29 but bouncing on the big inflatable trampoline they have there was awesome fun.
Short walk to the beach through the rest of the campground – great for surf casting and swimming.
Staff were wonderfully friendly and super helpful – they recommended another DOC campground to go river swimming near Opotiki which was _awesome_.
Clean facilities. Hot showers cost 10c per 1 min but if you can get away with a cold shower it's free!
Will definitely stay here again! :)

Cost was $39 for 2 people and the facilities were reasonably clean and good. Short walk to the beach. Only downside was having to pay for showers. There is a jumping pillow and lay ground for the kids and it is a reasonable place to stay though quite out of the way. We wouldn't stay here again only due to the location wnd it being very busy. Better for families

My new wife and I arrived as honeymooners to this lovely beach location in early December. It was if we had the place to ourselves, two weeks out from Christmas, and it was just fantastic. The quiet, bird songs in the morning, sea view from our self contained kitchen cabin was so welcoming, and the service was A+. We were even given the kayak experience for free ( being newly wed!) Thanks to Todd and Nola, you guys helped make our first few days truly memorable.
