We liked everything.

Centrally located near the lakes, was 5mins away by car.
Cabin/house was well appointed with kitchen, enough plates, cups, cutlery, pots n pans, liked the wine/ beer fridge, very handy.
Hearing the cabins are up for sale, very sad news, as only a few places available to rent near the lakes.

The property is very clean, the kitchen well equipped, and the staff very polite and smiley.
I chose the tent based on the information provided, and there was nothing indicating that it did not have power. That’s an important detail that should be clearly stated in the listing.
The area around the tent is completely dark as well at night. There’s no single light outside if you want to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
I’m not sure how “resort” is being defined here, but the experience feels much closer to a basic camping site than a resort.
The mattress is very soft which caused me sore back, the wifi has very bad service, but the kitchen fully equipped.

Great place, clean and very quiet with good kitchen, comfortable beds, big lounge good for a big family and kids. A playground for children was a bonus. Great location, 10 minutes away from the lakes
wish there was more than 1 toilet

The space is well set out with easy access to the bathrooms/kitchen. It was awesome having the playground, play house and alpaca for our little one to play!
I felt the place was generally a little run down/needing a deep clean. Our tent had black mould (or black mould staining) over half the roof and 2 of 4 net windows had rips so we couldn't keep them open. The kitchen was unclean and each morning was full dead (and alive) of bugs etc. From overnight which is understandablebut not quick to be rectified. The lounge sofas were musty/mouldy smelling and there was visible dirt in crevices etc. Same in general with the floors.

Proximity to Kai Iwi lakes. Julie and Rod were great. Private enough and peaceful.
Difficult to fix but I’m a big girl with a back injury and the toilet area was extremely confined for me. I had to use the loo down at the lakes, particularly for No. 2s.

The staff was very nice. We run out of water around 11:00pm, they fixed it immediately in 5mins
The signal was not too good

glamping tents had comfy beds, cosy blankets and gorgeous outlook
Annette wonderful, made us feel so welcome and was so helpful
10.0 / 10.0
I love that the staff gave us a house instead of the Glamper tent due to a storm that was coming. There were cleaning products for us to use (it was clean) and all we had to bring were clothes and food. Kai Iwi lake wasn’t too far away. It was peaceful and quite and the staff were lovely too 😁
Just the pressure of the shower, but that didn’t really matter we absolutely enjoyed our stay 😁
