wow, what more could you ask for, a choice of cabins, tent sites, caravan sites, Thermal hot pools, walking distance to Thermal wonder land and only 5 min drive to city centre. Its a must to do for family, friends, and independant traveller.

We stayed one night here on a campervan holiday and so used a powered site. There was an undercover walkway that ran the length of the parking spots for campervans, which is a good idea for bad weather days. The one thing I was definitely not impressed with were the bathroom facilities, which were easily the worst of our trip.... More

We stayed over the Easter Weekend for one night's accommodation in a self-contained cabin. We had stayed here many years ago and it was much the same since our last visit but with tv's upgraded etc. The facilities were clean and tidy. For the money paid, it was very good value. The cabins were surprisingly well soundproofed so we got... More

We stayed two nights here in a kitchen cabin. The cabins are old, musty and are under some high trees which make them very cold. We managed two nights sleeping on the well used foam mattresses and could not cope with a third. Checked out and went home. Website is misleading... we thought we had booked one of the log... More

Could do with some investment in updating the accommodation. We were located in a cabin that was sheltered from the sun all day and had to ask to be relocated to another cabin. Very dusty under our bed and sheets didn't smell fresh. Currently in a Top 10 and it's like chalk and cheese.

The hot thermal spa keeps us coming back for more - this trip we made a detour for this old favourite! Not much has changed since the last visit 2 years ago - it is still excellent value for money. And close to the Redwoods Forest for us mountain bikers. Recommended.

We have camped here four times over the past 7 years. The current management has not kept up the high standards of the past. The toilets at the back were not cleaned daily which is unacceptable. It looks like there has been little investment since our prior visit four years ago which is disappointing as it has great potential.

I stayed here in November 2012 for 3 nights to go mountain biking at Whakarewarewa / Redwoods mountain bike park. I stayed in a log ensuite cabin, it was quite basic, clean and had a small fridge, tv - which was sufficient for basic breakfasts. The Holiday Park also has a very large and well appointed communal kitchen area a... More

Having stayed at this park a 2nd time, i thought id post a review. I love staying at this park it has a wonderful atmosphere about it. It is a large park, however there are a number of ablution blocks and you never feel surrounded by people. If you're after a modern ritzy park, probably not for you. If you're... More

Stayed for the second time, tidy and nice facilities, heaps of space, great hot pools and swimming pool, friendly staff and dog friendly (no dogs from Xmas to early/mid January though) Too bad that the cafe was closed (again or still I don't know)
