Golden Bay Holiday Park

Clean, good price, well organised.

Beautiful scenic beach house, easy access to the beach. Newly built, quite clean, but there were a dozen huge annoying flies buzzing around the living room when we arrived. Also the second bedroom was locked from the inside with no way of unlocking it without a key, which we didn't have. Otherwise, the place was perfect, nicely decorated and designed. The motion sensor lights were a great feature, as well as the huge picture window.

This is one of our favourite camping spots in New Zealand - not only does it have its own private beach access, it also has beautiful grounds (including a fairy walk through the bush), a playground, and great facilities. This is a magic spot, well located between Takaka, Collingwood and surrounds, where there are heaps of cool spots to explore and cultural events to enjoy. Can’t wait to revisit!!

It had everything needed - showers are a dollar for 4 mins, which I thinks a bit too Pugh when you hav paid for the night. Lovely in winter with few campers around, with view straight onto beach from block A, looks like a lovely beach house available to rent also

This site did not compare favourably with others we stayed at. Check in was ok, but the facilities are tired, tokens needed for showers, though the location on the beach was nice. The park is miles from any supermarket or petrol station, so come fully laden.

I liked it, our stay. They looked after us and nothing was a problem because we did have a few requests, but they sorted us, and gave us options. A very real kiwi experience. My dad would've been mates with these people... We were a group of 3 instructors and 14 teenagers exploring Golden Bay and parts of the West Coast (Wharariki) and based ourselves at the holiday park. Good cooking facilities for a group our size. Lots of hot water/showers and clean ablution blocks. Beachside tent spaces and the sound of the waves breaking drowned out the incessant teenage jabbering. Highlights 1. Colony of Blue Peguin burrows along the treeline. A privilege to be so close to nature. 2. The night sky. The Milky Way, shooting stars...wow! 3. Sunrises. Watch the sun climb up out of the ocean and into the Heavens. 4. A wee fire on the beach for marshmallows and story time. Permission first from the office as safety protocols apply. 5. Good base location for exploring and connecting to the region. 6. Easy, yet professional hosts. ...so good in fact the following week we took a whole nother group of teens back to do it all again. The Holiday Park upgraded this next group into cabins cause the weather was a bit naff. Cabins! Teens thought it was Christmas, all 15 of them. Monitored and supervised, but the cabins had bunks and beds, linen, pillows, heating and very very clean. Recommendations A. The hosts/managers are good at what they do. Host B. I cant say enough about the location. C. Local community, local culture. ...and once you've settled in, go discover your own piece of paradise. Well done the Golden Bay Holiday Park.
