  • Pretty good.

    $55 per night for 2 adults and 2 children under 5 in a campervan powered site. Thermal pools are included and were lovely with varying temperatures to suit all. At intersection so pool and road side sites get noise until about 10pm but otherwise fine. Dryers have a very long cycle of 90mins compared to other industrial ones we have used. Hot showers are pretty good. Some spray in all directions due to high pressure and leaks. Friendly reception though there was a pricing discrepancy between what we were charged and our friends who had the same party size and setup. Pricing depends on site (grass vs gravel), age of kids etc so it's worth asking questions.

  • $25 per person for no power site -- so it's a good deal if you're solo, but overpriced for a group in one vehicle.

    No power area is a single lawn and a bit hilly. Kitchen was fine. When we visited, hot pool was crowded.

    Le camping est bien équipé pour les enfants. La personne qui nous a accueillis n'était pas particulièrement aimable en revanche.

  • Good place to waste your money… showers are not clean, lady at the front was really nasty and said she would not refund us when we asked for a flat spot instead of a grassy and uneven area for our campervan

    .

    We needed to spend the night there so we stayed…

    I would not recommand this holiday park.

  • Here you pay mainly for the proximity to all the tourists spots of Rotorua.

    Everything is there, but it is visible that they try to avoid cash out. No lightning at night (all the lamps are broken?) and also the hot tubs are out of shape. Would not stay here again.

  • As a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids) we love our stay here.

    Clean and tidy and very comfortable warm cabins. The thermal’s pools are deliciously hot even in the middle of winter. Staff were very friendly. Close to town and mountain biking- we’ll be back!

  • I paid $20 per night for an unpowered tent site, and set up under a tree which was fairly private although the tent site is a field.

    There was unlimited access to hot pools, a decent kitchen and dining area, a living room with outlets, and showers. There are no utensils or cookware out, but available for rent. Lots of friendly Kiwis camping here as well, instead of just tourists. Close to mountain biking, which is why I picked the spot.
