Tasman Holiday Parks – Waihi Beach
"Easy to book, easy access, helpful booking staff. But desperately in need of a cleanup. Overpriced for quality and cleanliness. Please dont publish my review; it is given as constructive criticism, private for the owners to work on. I have no intention of spreading bad vibes."

Te Aroha Motel

6 on Adams
"Wasn't what we expected, this happens when we pick a property with several owners. Internet was useless for the entire stay. Car park was small, luckily not many guests. About 700 mts to main restaurant area. Was a good stay not a great stay."
