Orere Point TOP 10 Holiday Park
We stayed here during a very bad rain storm March 2017 and were stranded as roads were closed due to mud slides and flooding.
Management let us stay the night for free and served hot scones in the morning. They made sure our van was moved to safer ground. They s. came by several times to see if we were ok and to give us weather / road closure updates. While it was a bit scary, we did feel safe and it was an adventure we won't forget. Of course when we travelled home to Canada the next day, we landed in a snow storm - can't run from Mother Nature. :)

Mighty Campervans
Campervan met all our needs.
Was clean, dependable and handled the up and down terrain well. Two areas that need improving: 1. Our book in day was not satisfactory as we waited 4 hours with no explanation. The Wifi was not reliable even at a high end camp ground - however Mighty did give us some $ off. 2. The Rankers reservation system is not easy. After 3 weeks of trying to book a van through Rankers, I went directly to Mighty site and found that if I booked one day later - all sorts of vans were available - so we stayed at a hotel close to airport our first night. The Mighty site had a great date availability tool. I'd recommend renting a campervan to any traveler who wants to see New Zealand!!!
