Unless you are 18 years old, this hostel has little to offer besides a swimming pool.
They claim to have job opportunities and free WiFi but neither are true.

Very windy and lots of bugs but close to Pelorus Bridge and the French Pass which are both worth a stop.

Gorgeous, little used campground with a magnificent view of Queen Charlotte Sound.
However, it has the most disgusting toilet I have ever seen and that is saying a lot!!

A must do!!

Friendly folk, good fishing.

Full of tourists but a great way to kill a few hours in an expensive city.
North Island ▷ Rotorua Region ▷ Hamurana ▷
4.5/5
Excellent spot for paddlers.
The trash and toilets are the only drawback, otherwise worth the trip from Rotorua.

Worth it!
