Boyd Park freedom camping area
4.0/5
Just a carpark next to some sport fields, but very spacious.
Toilets close overnight. Ideal to stay if you are planning to do a hike in the kaimais the next day.

Government Gardens Thermal Area
4.5/5
Great place in central Rotorua.
Right next to the Polynesian spa, toilets are half a minute walk away bit close overnight. Ideal if you want to visit Rotorua. Do come in time as it's a busy spot, even know winter all places are occupied.

Stella Place
4.0/5
Right besided a beautiful beach so location is excellent.
You walk from the carpark straight down across the dunes. Surrounding was clean and easy accessible. Only downside is the lack of a public toilet on the parking lot.

Hundertwasser Carpark, Kawakawa
3.5/5
Simple site, there was a construction going next to it so it was a bit bare.
The hundertwasser toilets are worth it though.

Island View Esplanade Reserve
4.5/5
Great campsite right next to the sea.
Clean and there's a dairy nearby to get some small stuff. Waihi beach and waihi are around the corner. Good place for some day trips.

Mad Campers
5.0/5
Great little vans with all you need for a good trip.
The vans are set-up very smart and everything you need is within hands reach. For instance the kitchen is at the back which leaves a lot of space in the van itself to move about, the little vans become quite spacious because of this. On top of this the kitchen has a good stove and he right cooking utilities. For sleeping the benches fold down to make a bed that is surprisingly comfy.The vans themselves drive great and don't feel run down at all.
The best from Mad Campers however may not be the vans but their service. From picking up the van to dropping it of the service is very friendly. A good introduction to the van is given which gives you a lot of confidence to start your journey. Also if you have any questions during your journey they are quick to respond. Luckily I did not run into any trouble during my trip, but if that would have happened I have no doubt they would do anything to get you on the road asap. Overall great experience and I highly recommend Mad Campers.
Thanks Jarren! It was awesome to send you off on your first Kiwi adventure and stoked your currently off on another down south... yeeeow! Thanks for joining the Mad Campers family :)
