  • Our first night in South Island after a long journey - so glad we chose here.

    Wide open spaces, nice clean facilities, bird sounds all around and a short walk down to a fabulous beach. Would happily stay here again.

    Thank you for your wonderful review, as I sit here typing this I can hear a Bellbird. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful green space

  • Friendly staff at reception and shop.

    Huge site, so much space. Very modern facilities (kitchen and bathrooms) all super clean and quiet even in December. Showers are hot, free and on a 10 minute timer which was plenty. Jumping pillow, playground, basketball court for kids and they even had a water slide out when we were there.

  • Really large campground with so much for kids to keep busy.

    Multiple facilities which are new and well maintained.

    Kids spent more time on the jumping pillow than spent off it. Price high at $25per adult but for value for money it's better than most and definitely worth staying.

  • Huge campsite.

    Sites for tents and campervans on big grassy fields. Like a park. One of their main amenities building burned down last year so the campervans were placed on the back two or three fields. Because it’s so big you’re walking a lot, but we liked the openness, space and the stuff for the kids. Some things that could be improved were the mediocre showers, the lack of enthusiasm by the staff and the 250 megabyte WiFi coupons (even though they were free for us as members, that’s really not necessary anymore folks).

  • Big park like space.

    The staff had other campers allocated immediately next to us, even though there was acres around us. Now I know why people are so rude and camp right next to you in free camps 😳

    Showers are on a timer and a bit fickle but they are clean

  • Much bigger park than expected!

    Was there on a quiet cold night - great clean bathrooms with showers. Beautiful trees and lots of space. A bit pricey but worth the price.

  • Nice spot, but a bit too big and too far a way from the beach.

    But still, everything was really clean and in a good condition.

    You have to pay 5$ for wifi but the connection is pretty good.

    A bit annoying the loud music in the kitchen and the bathroom.

    Price is okay. 21$ non power

    Solid holiday park, good for families. Reception was very limited. Had decent toilet and shower facilities. Free hot water. Campsite was reasonably spacious

  • Maybe good location in the good weather but we arrived on a rainy night.

    Seemed like many long termers are using the site. Quite old facilities. Don't recommend for families with young kids... Too big a site and very dark so had to use the flashlight to go to the facilities though we parked nearest to them.

  • Friendly office staff and convenient shop though we didn't use it.

    Pleasant, spacious level site close to the beach with mature trees, though generator or similar noise running all night was a slight inconvenience. Some long termers here. Daughter said park had a 'dodgy' feel to it and wouldn't go to shower unescorted. Sign in the showers says run the washbasin to hot first if you want to avoid a cold shower. Dated though adequate shower facilities. Park is convenient for the airport and city.
