Good facilities but have been unloved for a while so new owners will spruce things up and it’ll be a gem….we will come back again and in summer to enjoy the pool. Our room was good, had a great couple of nights sleep. ##### Colette Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria Jan 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staffs doing a great job, with the few staff they have.

It's in a lovely location where you can walk around in the bush or by mangroves across the road. It was easy to drive into the main area in Russell and beaches nearby approx. 5-10 min by car. We made use of the kitchen facilities in the cabin also. ##### Raveen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### alisa Feb 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Uniqueness starts with being able to see Kiwi in their natural habitat! Each night they come out as well as an abundance of bird life, 55 types! Cabins have nice privacy and balconies. Big fridge in our 2 bedroom cabin, plenty of space and a comfy couch too! Pool has been just upgraded so brand new! Toy outdoor corner that kids loved! As it’s not the top ten holiday park type, it’s the quiet, nature and wildlife, beautiful mangrove and bush trails all walking distance! Main reception sell torches so you can watch kiwi come out and give good advice if you need help! Bring your badminton set, bring a ball, bring a bike or hover board and race around the big ground space! ##### alisa Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Loren Nov 14, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### So much potential just not there yet… So much potential but just not there yet. It’s a stunning location and could be an amazing park. But currently dilapidated, untidy and needs some tlc. We had a standard cabin for a night, no smoke alarm as front had come off, kitchen shared area was to be desired. Woken up by a couple of cockroaches on wall above bed despite not leaving food out so I slept in the car. Again the park has a perfect location and idea with eco sustainability and wildlife awareness but just a little more attention to accommodation and communal facilities is needed. ##### Loren Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jade Feb 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really enjoyed our stay. ##### Jade Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather Nov 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely setting, great to rest and sleep ##### Heather Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandeep Jul 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Love you ##### Sandeep Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Steve Jan 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Friendly helpful staff. ##### Steve ### 8/10 Good #### Gurkirat Dec 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent ##### Gurkirat Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pratikkumar Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Peace ##### Pratikkumar Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Beata Jan 1, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely place Wonderfull place, calm, relaxing and good private area For cabin booking with a beautiful view.
