This park hotel is an awesome spot, just a short drive from the mountain, making it perfect for outdoor activities like the Tongariro Crossing. The cabins are clean and equipped with the essentials, while the shared facilities are spacious and well-maintained. However, keep in mind that the walls are a bit thin, so late arrivals may disturb your peace. Overall, I found it to be great value for the money!

The holiday park has a great location for the Alpine Crossing, but the experience was marred by an overwhelming number of warning signs that made me feel unwelcome. The owners seem overly cautious, which detracted from the overall atmosphere. While the check-in process was straightforward, the environment felt a bit oppressive. Overall, it was decent, but a more welcoming approach could elevate the experience significantly.

This holiday park is a cozy spot for those looking to tackle the Alpine Crossing, with helpful information provided by the owners. The rooms are clean enough, though the shared facilities could use a bit more attention. While I appreciated the cleanliness and the availability of hot water in the showers, the pervasive warning signs made me feel uneasy during my stay. Overall, the value for money is reasonable, but a few aspects of the decor and service could be improved.
