Hokitika Holiday Park

Value 4 Money

Was only here a few hours , but calling at 11pm on the Sunday in the middle of Easter weekmed and being able to stay here with my son instead of the apaulimg accomadation we stayed in. We were lucky enough they had a bunk room we could sleep in before returning home , the best way me and my son can describe it was sleeping in a warm marshmallow, the beds were soft and warm and comfterble. Wish we had more time to explore the park and facility's however my son did sneak in a sneaky go on the awesome flying fox before leaving :) and the playground is awesome

It's a shame a this site could be so much better with just a little effort. Stayed one night in an RV. The good points: 1. Nice and quiet 2. Lots of space The not so good: 1. No internet and receptionist didn't seem that bothered about it. 2. BBQ was dirty and out of gas - was simply handed cleaning materials and a new bottle to connect. 3. The toilets/showers were not clean - far too many insects trapped in webs (ie been there for more than a day) - one of the curtains even had an insect squished into it! No excuse for not keeping just 6 cubicles much cleaner.

While not right in the township of Hokitika it is a very quick drive or cycle to get there. You get the benefit of quietness with the exception of hearing the waves from the beach and excellent facilities. I have a week in a bunk room with lots of space as there is capacity for 4 and am here for a week and could easily and comfortably stay longer.

The first thing that put me off the place was the welcome we've received from the receptionist. She was very rude and cold. Our unit was dirty with back dirt and mould marks on the window sill. The extractor unit filter was very dirty. Dirty marks on the red kettle and toaster. The shower gel bottle was empty in the shower. The heater unit was full of dust and dirty. It didn't look like the place was cleaned for a very long time. The kicker was when we saw the marks on the pillow I had to sleep on. Disgusting place! Will not book there again.

The bunk room with shared bathroom was clean and cozy. The bunks beds are very comfortable and I saved money my bringing my own blankets and pillows, towels and linen. The wall mounted TV has built-In Freeview with various channels. There is a mini fridge, hot water jug and a toaster all included in the room. The shared kitchen is very large and has all the utensils needed. The shared lounge includes a wood fire. There is a large playground sporting a fast flying fox which is very fun and safe. Outdoor braziers are available and there are multiple gas-powered BBQ's on site which cooked my steaks and saussies to perfection. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Check-in required retrieving the key from a safe and inside is an envelope with a map and key giving clues where to go, I enjoyed this element because it gave a feeling of being in the amazing race. Quiet, relaxing and super fun.

Just 4km out of Hokitika a very quiet park perfect base for your West Coast holiday. Park owned and operated by a local family who go out of their way to ensure your stay is perfect. The photos speak for themselves, highly recommend. Next time on the coast call in for a look.

We arrived 1 day early from a tramp , with the holiday park rooms full to capacity the warm and friendly team helped us find somewhere to stay until our booking started . They even helped us find a vehicle to rent for the day . Thanks heaps

Pretty good place to stay, great playground for kids. So good except there aren’t enough toilets and showers and the toilet and shower doors don’t lock. Not enough crockery in the kitchen.
