The Top 10 Parks are all fairly similar and this one is no exception. The whole place is well laid out and clean. The facilities are good and you know ahead of time what to expect. We stayed in a kitchen cabin, which has basic cooking facilities (cooker, microwave, fridge, etc.) but this cabin also had plates, pot & pans.... More

Stayed in a powered site. The sites were well spaced and have great alphine views. The facilities are standard and cleanliess of the compound good. On a side not, try not to fill up your petrol in Franz Josef area, we got ripped of at NZD 1.8+ for diesel when the going rate was hardly NZD 1.6 in other towns,... More

We stayed on this site in a camper van and found that, despite being well equiped and clean and tidy ,it was just too big and busy for us - a bit like camping in a busy town centre car park. We had previously styed in quiter smaller sites and this was a total contrast. Having said all this, it... More

Facilities at this camp ground are good, however their service as booking agents is appalling. We booked a horse trek, and were told that we were booked onto the 5:30pm trek (at about 9:30am). around 12 the manger comes over and says that they are out of bigger horses - my partner is 6'4" so he can't go. We go... More

Hi there, thanks for your feedback. I am sorry your 2nd day in Franz didn’t work out after getting a great scenic flight on the 1st day. Tour companies have a responsibility to offer guests a safe trip. They also put a lot of effort into making sure it’s enjoyable. It sometimes happens that tour operators have to refuse guests...

Traveling South Land, stay at this Holiday park for sure. Best accommodation on route to both the Glaciers. Has wifi, campervan parking and charging units, motel rooms, hotel rooms, own cooking space with all amenities such as utensils etc. Washrooms may need little more attention but the price paid for this is absolutely peanuts. Good for friends traveling by bikes,... More

My friend and I had ridden motorcycles from Invercargill on a very wet day on the West Coast. The showers were great. The room (unit 6) had 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and a single bed (en suite bathroom) and the other had a queen bed. The room was very clean and comfortable. The downside was that we... More

We stayed there for one night and had an excellent experience. The staff was nice and friendly. The rooms were simple, well equipped, spacious and clean. The chalet was big enough, well heated and the parking was conviniently accessible. (we just stopped there, so the car was loaded with most of teh stuff we needed). Price wise it was worth... More

The park is some way north of the township (a long walk). We had a two-bedroom unit; the main bedroom had a its own en-suite, separate from the main bathroom. It had a relatively large well-equipped kitchen (this was not obvious from the website). Wi-fi access cost extra. More
