Punakaiki Pancake Rocks and Blowholes
Nice spot!
Worth a stop for sure.

South Island ▷ West Coast ▷ Hokitika ▷
The Hokitika Glowworm Dell
Really cool spot and very easy access.
Best once it is completely dark out. Do everyone else a favor and learn your camera functions before you go and avoid using the flash (it ruins your photograph and annoys everyone else).

Karamea Domain Camping Ground
Retro.
The value here was great. Simple spot but well maintained and plenty of room. Nothing fancy and not a fancy price.

Nelson City TOP 10 Holiday Park
Stayed here several nights out of convenience.
A nice spot and within walking distance of town if you don't mind a few km. Staff very friendly.
Hello Matthew

Wharariki Beach Holiday Park
This is a decent place in a great location *close* to the trail to the beach (not even close to being on the beach).
If it wasn't for the great location, I would have rated it much lower because of the dated and dingy facilities.
Thank you for your response. As already stated ALL our advertising states we are "the closest camp" to the beach and a 20 min walk is required. The camp and its facilities are only 5 years old it is the sea air which causes things to not "look" pristine like a camp in a city. I can assure you the camp is we maintained and over winter is "freshened" up for summer.

Murchison Motorhome Park
Facilities are outstanding and well maintained.
The staff are friendly and helpful. The setting is exquisite, nestled between the river and the mountains. Plenty of space. This was an especially good stop with a baby.

Greymouth Seaside TOP 10 Holiday Park
Facilities nice but location/atmosphere nothing special.
Good trail for running or walking adjacent to the holiday park.

South Island ▷ West Coast ▷ Westport ▷
Carters Beach TOP 10 Holiday Park
Worst place we have stayed yet.
Facilities mediocre and atmosphere totally lacking. Powered site was nothing more than a paved parking space.

Abel Tasman Canyons
The reviews are right!
This was a highlight of my year in New Zealand.

Shining Star Beachfront Accommodation
Beautiful gardens and superb location.
Pitches are close together but not a problem.

South Island ▷ Marlborough ▷ Blenheim ▷
Marfells Beach Campsite
Excellent spot.
Bit of a drive in but worth it. Was a shame it was rainy and very windy. Could have been epic on a calm, sunny day when the surfing was good.

Old Macdonalds Farm and Holiday Park
Huge site.
Very dingy facilities. Overcrowded in the facilities themselves when they are busy. Sites themselves are boring.

Picton Campervan Park
Spotless.

Sunrise Whare
Unbelievable!
When we talk to friends and family at home, we always mention the Rankers Koha. Wifi, swimming hole, power, super friendly, what more could you want? 2 year old son picked strawberries with the caretaker. Amazing.

Wharariki Beach Walk
My wife and I agreed that this was the nicest beach we have ever visited.
The walk in was charming, the scenery grand, and the surfing was better than average.

Snout Track
Phenomenal place for a run.
Or a tramp with the kiddo. Beautiful scenery abounds.

Super friendly owners and clean facility.
Their eco pod is OK.
