Large holiday park but very nice and well maintained.
Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Facilities excellent - large kitchens and shower blocks, very clean. Right next to the beach, which is good for walking and swimming, and a 10 min walk to the town itself which is nice and has everything you would need.
Stayed here twice either end of a trip around Northland - very convenient location for this! Powered site, $40 per night, pretty standard for North Island.
Would definitely recommend.

We rented a Toyota Hiace hi-top van from Kurt for 2 weeks, one way Auckland to Christchurch.
The vans are slightly older models but mechanically we had no problems at all and it was easy to drive, and clearly very well looked after.
The inside of the van was really great - nicely decorated, comfortable bed, loads of storage and the kitchen things all had their own space to put away. All of the kitchen crockery and cutlery, bedding and towels were included, along with lots of extras like washing up things, a picnic table and chairs, a road map and a small bin. The larger companies will charge you to rent all of these things. We have rented other vans in NZ and this is by far the nicest and best equipped.
Kurt picked us up from the airport and made sure we were happy with the van and how to work everything. He is very easy to get in contact with and was extremely friendly and helpful. The business is family-run and you can tell they put a lot of effort to make sure their vans are clean, pleasant and safe on the road.
We can't recommend them enough! Thanks Kurt for a great time!
