    A clean, comfortable and friendly place to stay. Stayed in the women's only dorm which felt safe and inviting. Loved the natural surroundings and watching the blue eyed eels in the stream. Exceptional shower pressure!

    Unfortunately one of my dorm mates had a particularly funky odour which made it hard to sleep one night but that's part of the charm of staying in backpackers right?

    Lovely relaxed accommodation surrounded by nature. Clean and friendly.

    7Rose-AnnePosted on: 1-19-2026

    The service was awesome, very friendly and accommodating. Kitchen and toilets were close to our room, and listening to the ducks were cute.

    The bed up against the wall, it made the sheets wet.

    Its great , clean , tidy and comfortable bed.

    2BrionyPosted on: 1-5-2026

    The room was clean

    I’ve never stayed anywhere like this!I thought we would be in a separate cabin like most leisure parks but it was a small room in a house almost. The room backed onto the communal shower which was quite noisy.5pm check in was a pain and when we asked to check in earlier they said they would get back to us and then didn’t.Once we were checked in, my teenage sons were then approached like they were trespassers. Made us feel very unwelcome. If anything else had of been available I would have left

    Big kitchen

    Address not accurate in google map,Information in bookings not matching reality.crude shower room and rooms, Not deserve the price

    9DesireePosted on: 12-30-2025

    We did not eat breakfast, beds were comfy

    Nothing really, it was value for the money spent

    5MichellePosted on: 12-29-2025

    Near city

    No fan a bit hot at night

    7IanPosted on: 12-29-2025

    Shared dorm. Happy to find at late notice. It served OK. Understandably there was some disturbance in the night.

    Mens Showers had no changing area. The shower itself was clean and perfectly acceptable.

    9SimonPosted on: 10-31-2025

    Perfect location, nice a remote but only a 10min drive to New Plymouth CBD. Lyn the manager was friendly and helpful.

    Limited hot water in the showers due to the property being full … we coped

    5SarahPosted on: 10-6-2025

    Manager Lynn was fantastic, very friendly and helpful. Room small but tidy, and nice location tucked away in nature very close to the town center

    Walls are quite thin so not much privacy. Other guests pretty loud but did go quiet at a reasonable time

    Great Staff. Upgraded us to better accom. Very helpful. Clean linen. They even gave us some free towels which we were supposed to pay for. Kitchen was clean and tidy.

    Nothing. Great stay.

    Owners were kind and helpful

    Cold room, beds were uncomfortable, felt damp.We booked the bigger family room. We were moved inside due to weather but then that room was very cramped

    5KerePosted on: 7-5-2025

    Relatively cheap for services provided.

    Toilets old and a walk from our room in the dark.

    4ChloePosted on: 6-25-2025

    Close to town

    Bathroom to far away. Very cold and dirty feeling

    8YukiPosted on: 6-2-2025

    I loved the staff, our room was good and spacious. the location is central but i felt like i wasn't in the city. very easy going. i loved how hot the showers got!

    one window in our room had no curtain and didnt close fully. it was cold and let a draft through. our neighbors were horrible unfortunately. staff tried to do what they can but ultimately theres only so much you can do
