Definitely not a bad place to stay by any means.

They have flush toilets, which is a nice bonus. There was also a wonderful, short walk through the woods adjacent to the parking lot which was nice. Only downside is there isn't a lot of space, so you need to show up early.

My husband and I did a 10 day tour of the South Island in March 2023 in a 3 berth.

We had contacted a number of companies and ended up booking with Kia Ora due to the fact that they included so many things that other places charged extra for, such as a GPS unit and chairs.

Our experience was wonderful. When we arrived at their depot in Christchurch, Vicky walked us through how everything on the campervan works. Too caught up in your excitement to hold on to that information? There was a very simple, but thorough manual in the driver's side door that explained everything as well. Everything inside worked wonderfully and it truly felt like our home for the duration of our trip.

I will say when we arrived, there was a crack in the windscreen almost at the driver's eye level. Vicky was extremely apologetic about it, as the people renting before us only told her when they dropped off that morning and she hadn't had a chance to fix it. I only bring this up because of how absolutely accommodating they were in trying to get it repaired around our trip schedule, instead of insisting that we change our plans to get it repaired.

We could not have had such an incredible trip without Kia Ora and their well taken-care of campervans. Thank you so much for helping us have the trip of a lifetime! If we ever came back, we would not hesitate to book through them again.
