Everything

The gaming room mini putt playground for the kids
How the pool was closed during this season. It should be open all seasons my opinion
The location and setting of the property are wonderful. The rooms were a good size Complimentary tea/coffee/hot chocolate sachets
The mini golf was largely unplayable due to water and leaf debris. The basketball net was broken and bats/balls etc for the table tennis were not available once the reception closed at 6. The room smelt musty, particularly the bed linen. There was no chopping board so a challenge to even make toast. The tv would not turn on and despite several attempts to contact facility management we got no response until shortly after 9am the following morning, and as we were in process of checking out I didn’t see the message til later in the day. When dropping back the key I wasn’t even asked if we had a good stay and my mood wasn’t the best after a long and fraught evening with three kids and nothing to do so I decided not to discuss all the issues with that member of staff. The Duty Manager did apologise in her initial correspondence but tone dramatically changed in later correspondence when I mentioned I would be contacting Booking.Com support. Location and setting are wonderful but I would not recommend this facility. We have been travelling for a few weeks now and this is the first poor stay we have had in New Zealand (we are from Northern Ireland)
I love this place great staff beautiful place and relaxn nature cleaningness warm and cozy comfortable aan excellent
I loved everything
The kids loved the carvan experience. It was also really clean, with compatible beds
Clean and good value for money
Good location and friendly staff, and no judge in this area with this price.
Beds
Friendly staff Very quiet
Staff is so helpful. Good location. Calming and quiet place to get away from a busy city life. Affordable.
The fridge was a bit smelly, must clean it properly otherwise the place is neat.
Baño amplio y limpio. Parking
El colchón de la cama era extremadamente duro, y fue muy incómodo. Además de que son cuchetas de 3 camas, lo que hace que sea difícil acomodarse para dormir
The dorm room is clean, well equipped with facilities for light breakfast. Bed is pretty comfy. Can park right beside the cabin.
The shower is rather far away from the cabin, and the gravel room in between isn't that easy to walk on. You need to pay for the shower, though it is not expensive. There is a poor toilet beside the cabin. There is no dish soap in the kitchen when I went there.
Parking spot right next to the accommodation.
You have to pay a dollar for a five minute warm shower. Towels only after paying a deposit. One of the lights in the accommodation didn't work. Bed too soft/wobbly.
Lovely space nice ping pong
Somehow can’t closed the window
Excellent customer service, kind and respect person
The owner was friendly and welcoming. Comfortable beds in the female dorm. Good location.
The smaller dorm/half kitchen set-up was incredibly cozy for a hostel. The room was clean, the shower room was clean, the entire property was clean. It was a lovely place to come back to after exploring the Coromandel Peninsula.
They do charge for hot water in your showers - it's logical, but unexpected.
I like the stuff very good service and very good people and and pool was nice and very chean toilet and shower and my love the pool he swimmin every day wen we there thank you very much for having us its good experiences for my family
The staff was really friendly, they gave me really good grapes. Kitchen was alright. They had a lovely nature park area.
The bed wasn't too comfortable, there was also no power power outlet or curtains in my bed. Tap water didn't seem drinkable.
Camping proche de Thames et facile à trouver.
Logement dans une cabine très juste pour 3 et aucune place pour ranger quoi que ce soit. La cuisine extérieure était sous-dimensionnée : peu de vaisselle, peu de tables et aucun ingrédient - sel, poivre , autre - pour rendre service.
Great value and an Air Hockey machine!
Unfreundliches, nicht zuvorkommendes Personal. Die Dame an der Rezeption konnte leider nicht mit kritik umgehen und war uns gegenüber sehr unfreundlich. Die Betten in den Hütten sind sehr unkomfortabel. Man schläft gefühlt auf Holz. Dafür war der Preis deutlich zu hoch. Leider keine Empfehlung
Tout était parfait Accueil au top Tout les espaces communs étaient propres L’emplacement en pleine forêt au calme avec une rivière
having a river down below
Wifi issues keep dropping not connecting
It was a cute holiday park, with awesome facilities. The river was a bonus. Will go back again if ever in Thames again.
Nothing really it was tidy and clean even throughout the grounds.
All place very good
Einfaches Häuschen mit 6 Betten auf einem Campingplatz. Die Verwalter waren sehr freundlich, die Betten gut, alles sauber und gepflegt, sogar ein Kühlschrank war im Zimmer. Grillplatz war auch vor der Küche vorhanden und gut nutzbar
Außenicht kam durch das Oberlicht der Tür rein, das war etwas hell, konnte aber mittels Besen behoben werden
Its was family friendly, our caravan was awesome! Pool and river makes everything easy when is kids on you crew, but also if you follow the river up on your car, its there some amazing treasure swimming and bombing spots.
Love everything
Excellent location
THE HOST WAS MWAH.
ALL GOOD
4-bunk women’s dorm was comfortable with nice amenities included in the room. Lots of birds in the area and a hike on the premises
Great location Good value for money Staff helpful
It suited our needs for a basic one night stay
The curtains were very thin and didn’t meet
Place were very clean, shower were okay but beds were hard my boys said
Nothing we don't like
Everything. Good location. Great facilities. Decent size camper vans.

Loved the little caravan and the location.
Paying for a shower. It’s a holiday park not a roadhouse.
Me and my family really enjoy our fet away. It was peaceful for us. My kids enjoy the pool. We like it because it's not far to the town center. Office lady were very nice and help us with our booking. The cleaning lady were very polite and friendly and she done a good job. We love the flowers over the place. We will come back another time.
We didn't expect to pay for the hot water in the shower but it's still ok for $1 to 5mins.
The bungalow that we booked was very comfortable with firm beds. It was very clean and functional, and the staff were helpful and friendly. The Internet speed was good as well. The location of the Holiday Park is quite convenient, few minutes drive from the town centre. Definitely value for money. Great family vacation spot.
Nothing really.
It was a wonderful stay.and close to town and our bungalow was awesome will come back for another but longer next time hopefully 2026 Christmas day
Nothing to dislike
Quiet and reasonable cost
Very Very small things, no plastic bowls ( couldn't cook in microwave) Nowhere to hang / dry towels
Quirky, comfortable room
The wifi was really spotty and slow
Very Nice quiet place we can relax at all time.⁹
Lovely caravan! and great park
Emplacement Sympathie du personnel
Matelas mou
Beds were awesome not the best mattress in the world but a mattress nonetheless. You get what you pay for and more in this case with a superbly equipped kitchen lovely grounds a free use pool nice area for drying stuff and borderline luxury bunk room. There also a games room were you can ask for the equipment (free of charge) from the lovely receptionists who looked after my bags when I went on the pinnacles hike after checking out. The tv room has some good reading aswell. There’s a lovely river to sit by as you eat or a good set of benches with a nice view by the kitchen. One of my best stays in north island without a doubt was lovely to take the afternoon off here.
Location was a bit far from town however, I am a solo traveller without a car and had to walk. Most would find it perfect. Could also do with a washing machine (I’m not sure they might have one).
Die Dame an der Rezeption war sehr nett. Ich hatte den ganzen Schlafsaal für mich und konnte direkt neben der Hütte parken. In der Hütte gab es Kühlschrank, Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher und Toaster sowie Geschirr und Besteck. In der Gemeinschaftsküche war alles vorhanden, was man sonst brauchen könnte. Das Bad war sauber (heiße Dusche kostet 1$ für 5min), es gab ein zusätzliches WC in der Nähe der Hütte.
Zu viert mit Gepäck könnte es eng werden in der Hütte. Etwas in die Jahre gekommen, für den Preis aber völlig in Ordnung.
Clean and tidy.
Clean & comfortable
There wasn't anything I didn't like
Family-friendly holiday space with so much to do. Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏 💯
Great value, quality service, and staff are so helpful.
We really enjoyed our one-night stay — the location was perfect, with shops, beaches, and the rock pool all nearby. The park was clean, peaceful, and had a great atmosphere. We loved it so much we didn’t want to leave.
The only small downside was a few bugs coming in from outside, maybe some insect spray in the room would help. Otherwise, everything was great, and we’d definitely come back for a longer stay next time.
