Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Fordlands?
Fordlands, being a part of the Bay of Plenty, enjoys a mild climate, making it a good destination year-round, but the best time to visit for warm weather activities is during the summer months, from December to February. This period offers the warmest temperatures and the most sunshine, great for exploring the natural beauty of the region.

Families often find the summer months ideal for a trip to Fordlands. With school holidays in full swing, the long, sunny days are great for outdoor adventures like visiting the nearby redwood forest, exploring the geothermal parks, or spending time at the lakes. Many local attractions and activities are in full swing during this peak season.

Couples looking for a more tranquil experience might prefer the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) or spring (September to November). The weather is still pleasant, with fewer crowds than in summer. This allows for a more relaxed pace when visiting the geothermal attractions or enjoying the scenic walking trails.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Fordlands hotel for you.
How much is the nightly rate at a Fordlands hotel?
Hotel prices in Fordlands often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
