4.0/5
Nice camp ground, quiet and close both to Treaty Grounds as well as Paihia centre.
Clean and well kept, sites not huge but ok. Free hot showers, paid wifi - but very close to Spark hotspot - all in all good value.

3.5/5
That one is a little tricky, technically almost everything was good and above standard (facilities w/ free hot shower, free BBQ, nice kitchen, clean pool and spa), but that surely comes at a price, $48
for a powered site without WIFI. Yet what bothered me was basic: very narrow, open-sighted sites, and many of them uneven. I would not mind that in a remote DOC site, but in a luxury village camp?!

4.5/5
Close to perfection for campervans, tidy facilities, affordable laundry and friendly reception.
Having your own shower/toilet hut still fascinates me. All this reasonably priced. Location is a little off, yet walking distance to the beach.
South Island ▷ Southland ▷ Balclutha ▷
3.5/5
Very nice spot, very close to nature.
Reception was personal, yet not entirely professional. Wifi is free, but protected, which was slight hassle as reception was vacant most of the time. Spacious sites, facilities rather worn out, yet kitchen appliances and cutlery provided.

2.5/5
Stunning beach location, unfortunately comes at a price.
47 for powered site, wifi and warm showers extra. Facilities a little bit worn, most disturbing was dirty showers.
South Island ▷ West Coast ▷ Punakaiki ▷
4.0/5
Great location right by the beach, short walk to tavern if you like and Porariki river trail.
Nice reception, warm showers and 30 mins of wifi included, all at a reasonable price. Facilities not new and a bit cold as no proper door, yet all in all a clear "will be back"
