The cabin was exceptionally clean - crisp white sheets and nice towels. Shower was great and we were very comfortable. I asked if we could have two beds and two were provided which made us very happy. A very pleasant experience . Very friendly service

The place needs repair, showers leaking water. Toilet seat keeps coming off. Blinds are buggered. Couch filthy dirty. Mattresses old need replacing. Cabin requires cleaning underneath.
Replace mattresses. Repair toilet seat. Repair shower. Get couch cleaned.

Good location.
Getting a little tired and it’s a bit on the pricey side for a camping spot

We’ve stayed at quite a few of the Holiday Parks and this one was by far the best from the cabin to the staff! All excellent

The shower and toilets were clean shower pressure was great easy to find our cabin . Heater in the cabin is very useful . 2 towels were available.
Our room smelt like it hadn't been aired out for awhile , Didn't have a tv like shown in the pictures on the website , woulda been good to have a bug spray or some kind of bug zapper in the room . Wifi was 500mb a day then had to pay $5 for extra . Other than that everything else was okay.

Definitely coming back within the next year for a Mum & Dad getaway so hopefully we catch the Kiwi this time around.

The heater, the cottage was well appointed, the secret room was loved by the children, the bathroom was good, water pressure and heat was great. And seeing kiwi was awesome!
The flies in the cottage! Really yuck. The TV didn't work, we weren't told the internet logon. A couple of bunk mattresses were almost non-existent.

The beds were incredibly comfy. The rooms had everything we needed with a little fridge, jug and heater. Very quiet location. There are kiwi there but we slept all through the night with the kids.
They can't help it, but the road noise can be a bit loud

Likes-The staff were friendly and helpful. The unit was in a nice location. The rooms were clean and the bed very comfortable. Dislikes- The unit had no inside chairs, only a small fold up table. The front deck had another small f/u table, but the fold up chairs were old and problematic. No tv, no aircon, no milk for drinks. The shower drain hole was in the wrong place in the top corner and water flowed to the lowest point near the entry point and out into the bathroom.

The staff are really nice especially Hena (im not sure of the spelling of her name) and her family.
The button for the light on men’s toilet/shower room automatically switches off itself and you have to push it down everytime it does to turn the light on so it can be quite annoying when showering.

There was no breakfast, the location is beautiful,
there was tea and coffee but no milk to have with them and the mattress was a bit thin, what we thought was a fridge actually froze the food we put in it! Going for a shower at night was tricky because the light doesn't stay on for long and the hot water was on and off.

This accommodation was the worst experience I have had and I am an avid traveller. The tent that I booked was described as luxurious with a kichennette. What I found was a TPee that was not water prouf as described and could not even shut. The manager Holly said ...if it rains, I will move you to a cabin. The bathroom facilities were a loooong way away as well.
It was agreed to refund me the second nights accom that I had paid for. I reasiled this property was not going to work for me and that sadly did not eventuate and no one picks up my calls when I ring. This place is totally run down . Do yourself a favour and go somewhere else.

Great facilities, staff and in an ideal location!
It says free wifi but we we're limited to how much wifi we could use and then had to pay if we wanted more. I was working while holidaying so this wasn't ideal.

Loved the Asian food truck and their friendly customer service especially that of the office staff , in my personal opinion it was a breath of fresh air being served by Māori customer service who showed a lot of professionalism thank you 😊
Not a biggie but I would have enjoyed a television in my accommodation, not a biggie
