Loved the exceptionally well kept facilities, the sea view and the pool. Close to everything the Bay of Islands has to offer but tucked away on its own beach. Great family get away. Staff were helpful and friendly too.

Great family escape

We stayed in a cabin and when we checked in, we found pieces of soap still in the shower from previous occupants. In fact, we left it cleaner than it was when we arrived. It was a little way out of Paihia so not close enough to walk there and the road into the park from the highway needs grading and is quite steep and narrow.

Needs a bit of work

Nice and comfy with all basics provided. Fabulous location, nice and quiet, with beautiful water views. Great little park, and a heated pool (although the pool was not operating part of our stay) overall, highly recommended, well done team

Lovely spot!

We have stayed here many times, in everything from tents to motels. This time we all noticed a distinct change, as if the camp was unloved & holidaymakers were simply a source of revenue. Examples - Kids told pool closed at 6pm, despite the long, hot days. This is apparently because the new operators live off-site & want to get home. Maintenance issues are not being rectified with speed & pride as Dusty (previous owner) would have done. Why was there only one BBQ operational for our whole stay? Why were TV internet issues not addressed? When was the herb garden (supposedly a feature) last tended? Reception was not like the pleasant, welcome normally enjoyed at other Top 10 camps - I've stayed at many this summer! A smile upon arrival goes a long way to a positive holiday experience. Luckily, one thing the new operator can't denigrate too much is the superb view & location. Please maintain your facilities & upgrade your hospitality skills to Top 10 level & to match the pristine environment.

Stunning location - poor hospitality.

We have travelled extensively for years across N.Z., both tenting & in a motorhome, & without doubt, the 'service' & attitude from this camp was deplorable.
The brand damage to 'Top 10' has been done.
We had arranged to arrive at 12.30pm with a staffmember ( usually a 2pm strict check-in time which is ridiculous, as check-out is 10am)...we arrived around 50 mins earlier...my wife had become ill & we needed to set up camp....a different staffmember, who was bordering on hostile, told her to go away & come back at 12.30.
She barked that the site fee would be $100 per night! ( the sites are quite small for motorhomes as well).
As an example of the 'vibe' at this place, in addition to their myriad of 'camp rules', there is a handwritten note next to the bell at reception stating 'if you ring this when I am in the office, you will be charged $1'.....do you get the drift?
I gave feedback to her in terms of the way she had spoken to my wife & she was 'all in' for an arguement, so we left & found Waterfalls Campground down the road, which has spectacular sites facing Haruru Falls....free use of the swimming pool & free kayaks to explore the estuary leading to Waitangi....just bliss!!! The owners are delightful & soooo accomodating......what an absolute contrast!
Avoid this Top 10....you have been warned.

Treated like lepers!....Avoid!

A great break in a superior cabin which had everything we needed, very clean, larger than expected. Staff were excellent. A beautiful position beside the water a few km out of Paihia. And beautiful sunrises across the water!

A great experience

We loved it here beside the water. We were able to swim and kayak in the bay and walk into town. As a sporty adventurous couple This spot Suited us perfectly and we highly recommend as one of our top pics to stay!

We’ll be back

Great holiday park with all the services at the level I would expect from a TOP 10 Holiday Park. Great service, clean and well maintained. Staff were welcoming and knowledgeable about surrounding tourist attractions.

We enjoyed the stay. Furnished room with bathroom, fridge, microwave, jug & supplies. Air conditioner & dehumidifier great for that humid weather. The staff were very helpful and stepped up to save us a lot of hassle. Thank you.

Great spot in the Bay

Beautiful accomodation located within the forest, and on the waterfront. This place provides great accomodation, at a fraction of price. Love the small, intimate setting, with a pool to entertain the family. Friendly staff, great showers, massive kitchen with grand family tables to fit large families! Very clean, and well serviced, definitely recommend this place, top service, top accomodation, top location, at an affordable price.
