Cabin has a bad smell (note on wall stated it was recently varnished but did not have this smell). Shower went hot then cold on and off which made for a very unpleasant experience. Overall i would recommend to get an ensuite and skip the cabin to stay. Friendly staff but overall not a pleasant stay for the price.

Great location for glow worms

We just stayed one night and chose because of location. The park is lovely with lots of open space. Checkin was easy and staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable enough and the small kitchenette was helpful. It was very easy to get to the glow worm caves and tour, just minutes up the road. We could’ve walked if it had not been raining. Internet was a bit spotty but we could get done what we needed to.

A real gem !

This was an unexpected stay and it was unexpectedly delightful. The place was clean and central to the Waitomo caves tour ( 1 min away by car)
Special mention to staff GUY - such a helpful and diligent staff member - a credit to the place. No question too hard. We hadn’t made a booking for the cave tour and accepted we missed out and was going to leave for Rotorua. Guy continued to make enquiries even when we had checked out and he called us an hour later to let us know there were spots available and helped us book in asap !!!! We made the tour ! What a delight. Thank you Guy !!
Highly recommend this place.

Cabin was nice. Spacious with a little deck. Wish we had a view other than the carpark.

Everything was nice and clean except the hot tub which looked kinda grimy.

We were not really warned that pots and pans were only available till 8p, so we had to borrow some from other guests to cook dinner.

Very convenient location for caves, visitor center, and a couple restaurants.

Barely comfortable than camping

There's no hot water in the room. As I entered, I can clearly see that the curtains are very dirty and looks moldy.

There's a $2 fee/towel if you want to use one. There's free Wifi, but its only free up to 1GB of download after that you have to pay.

We booked a 2 night stay, but left after the first night.

We were allocated 2 rooms with queen beds. We were given originally on arrival 1 room with 1 twin/single bunk set and 3 single bunks. When we complained were allocated 2 cabins with the same setup. Rooms were very tidy and the shared toilets/showers spotlessly clean. Couldn't be bothered pursuing the room setup further as it was a short stay
