"Fantastic Holiday Park in close proximity to Auckland, we return here every time. Absolutely LOVE their pools - they drain them every day, clean and tidy facilities, yet simple and all you need for a family break. Thank you Peter and the team - we LOVE your work and service is always superb!"

Perfection
"This was without a doubt the best place I have stayed at. Every single detail was thought of and more. It is a beautiful, peaceful and comfortable apartment. Stones throw to the beach and a gorgeous sunset view from the deck. I’m trying to find an excuse to go back ASAP."
