The apartment was close to the beach which could be seen from the top floor. It was well appointed.
The concrete floors in the bedrooms were chilly on the feet.
The location was great and the view from the apartment was beautiful. The use of the other camping ground facilities such as the pool was a real positive.
The internet didn't work well in our room, including on the TV.
The check in girls were great!!! Great view. Nice activities
The unit was very clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. I liked the upstairs deck and the view of the water.
I didn’t like the noise from the road behind the campground.
Fully equipped kitchen so we could do our own breakfast. Very handy location to the beach and restaurants.
There was nothing we did not like.
Everything was good, view was very pleasing, Park facilities were excellent. Neighbours respectful
Wifi was very slow poor. When a ship is loading logs, trucks are noisy throughout the night.
Location and near the beach and town.
Our coffee pods were not stocked up daily and I didn't know that this was in a Caravan Park.
swimming pool and location - family-friendly
We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartments, and there was no Wi-Fi. We paid for free wifi, followed the guest book instructions, and could not connect at all disappointing.
We were a group of 8 ladies on a weekend away.The location as excellent as it was an easy drive to vineyards and restaurants, we relaxed on the beach in the afternoon and then went for lovely long walks in the morning
As trivial as it sounds - perhaps an extra mirror in the bedroom or up in the lounge would've been great as only one mirror in the bathroom and 3 ladies getting ready wasn't convenient
High quality fittings, well furnished. Superb views.
Would have preferred some basic cooking essentials such as a chopping board, frying pan, sharp knife.
The waikanae apartment was clean and modern, the bathroom and shower was superb. The location was spectacular.
Spacious and good layout . Not quite the location onto the beach we thought from the image . As had to go down to the surf club to access . Also site a little busy right in front of us
Beach access Tents in front of us .
The two storey accomodation was perfect for our 5 day stay. We loved being elevated and having the view of the beach. The apartment was modern, clean, well set out, had beautiful big windows and the staff were extremely approachable and helpful. We absolutely loved our stay.
It wasn't clear when we booked the apartment that the accomodation was in a camping ground. Once we got over this initial shock, we ended up loving the environment. We enjoyed seeing the families enjoying their tenting and caravanning holidays.
The views from the apartment are fabulous. If you have children it is easy to monitor , watch them on the jumping case from the balcony of the apartment. the enclosed out door deck is amazing and a great outdoor eating place.
a few more kitchen gadgets e.g rice cooker , toasted sandwich maker and air fryer.
Great view from the balcony and a great setup for a family of four. Good kitchenette if you want to cook. Plenty of activities for everyone.
We had stayed in the camp area of the park earlier and returned with our adult children to stay in a 3-bedroom apartment this time around. Comfortable, great location and ideal for a family get away.
A mirror in the upstairs bedroom would be good. Only mirror was in the downstairs bathroom, was poorly lit and three adult females competing for space
Modern, spacious and able to walk to most places.
The room was great, nice pool and good location
Nothing really. Would have been good to have a small drying rack available in the room to set up on the balcony and table mats to avoid marking the table when eating.
