The staff are really friendly, informative and nice. A small team who created a community feel. The Superior Cabin had nice clean sheets and pillows on arrival including an immaculate fridge and room. The humid days made for very warm rooms during the day and night.

Comfortable stay. We had to pay for towels and sheets. We traveled from overseas and are not familiar with the setup of holiday parks in NZ. Having to pay for towels and sheets seemed strange. The bathroom was outside and shared. This too was an inconvenience. It was not clearly stated in the description of the property when we made our bookings online. There were no shops or dining available in the vicinity and we had to drive almost 30 minutes to the nearest shopping area. Come prepared with all your things for staying here overnight. They need to update the amenities description online.

We had a two bedroom cabin, even there were only two of us. It was very quiet, and a nice large unit. It was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed. We would go there again.

Stayed in the 6 person motel unit, probably 4 more comfortably than 6, but for the two of us though it was great and had everything we needed. Could do with a modern heater/aircon and spruce up but was a very clean room and staff were helpful and friendly.

My family and I stayed 3 nights. We didn't want to leave. The staff were so lovely, the facilities modest yet so homely. We felt really relaxed here. We did the beach side cafe, saw a sunset, had fish and chips, ventured the dunes, playgrounds and convenience store. Heck all I need to do now is win lotto and invest locally. Such a beautiful location. Thanks guys.

The cabin we stayed in was getting on a bit but it was ok. the bed wasn't very comfortable and the sheets are polyester which was not nice. The worst problem is that there are bed bugs which need to be eradicated. we didn't realise it at the time but awoke with several bites in places mosquitoes etc can't get to.
