I wish I had better news.

My review is based on the value for the price.

We paid $10 pp. No amenities accept for a sink and accommodation is adjacent to a busy road. The hosts were friendly enough, but I felt this was a rip off, sorry to say. Perhaps if they included a bottle of olive oil, it may sweeten the deal.

If you want paid accommodation, perhaps try the DOC camp, which is quite lovely and quiet; or the NZMCA Park. We found cell coverage to be quite good on the KariKari Peninsula.
