I had a pleasant stay at this motor camp. The cabin was more spacious than I expected and had a TV, but it was a bit annoying not having a remote. The dining area in the kitchen had small tables and chairs that weren't very comfortable. While navigating the camp layout was tricky, overall it was a good experience.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel where the cabins are clean and offer breathtaking views. The sunset from the balcony is a must-see, and the night sky is perfect for stargazing. While I enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, the rooms could use a little updating, and hauling luggage up the steps was a bit of a challenge.

I recently stayed at a holiday park that offered stunning views and a charming atmosphere, perfect for families. The amenities were decent, although some facilities had inconvenient hours that required planning around them. While the room I stayed in had its drawbacks, like heat and an uncomfortably cheap bed, the overall experience, especially the birdlife and play areas for kids, was uplifting. However, it felt a bit steep in price given the room conditions.

We had a fantastic stay at our first Top 10 Holiday park while exploring New Zealand. The park was peaceful and well-kept with stunning views of the lake, making it a great stop after picking up our CamperVan. However, there were times when certain facilities could have been cleaner, especially when it got crowded during the holidays.

I had a pleasant stay with some definite positives and a few drawbacks. The location was fantastic, and I loved the views and the serene atmosphere. The rooms were decent but did have some issues, especially with the fridge. I appreciated the cleanliness, but some amenities could use updates. Overall, it's a nice place to relax, though improvements are needed in certain areas.
