Note that this is a holiday park, not a hotel, as some reviewers here seem unable to distinguish between. I give this holiday park 4 stars. There are plenty of showers, stove tops, dining room seating. All are heated when it's cold. Standard of cleanliness was very high. I believe the park falls short in that the price to pitch... More

Ever since the earthquake, there's been a shortage of affordable hotel rooms in Christchurch. Rooms are often booked out and over-priced. We were in a jam and the Christchurch I-Site helped us find at this place last-minute. It was a much better value than anywhere else we stayed in Christchurch. Their motel-style rooms are spacious, clean and it was fairly... More

I stayed two nights in this holiday park. The big4 holiday park in Australia is much better. I stayed at delux chalet. The room is very small. Almost no walking place. The queen bed is just next the kitchen and only half meter away. The bathroom is very small too and I can't find the hair dryer anywhere. There are... More

Was the biggest camp site we stayed at and had a drive thru entrance, the lady at reception didn’t seem the most helpful but we did go and find the other staff on reception very helpful. The pitches are Ok sized but not as spacious as some of the other ones we had stayed at, the facilities were very good... More

We are located 4.9km from the very heart of the city and 5km from the airport - the second closest to the city centre. We do have a bus that goes past our entrance to the city. We have recently landscaped our Cranford St entrance and erected a Hebel fence to improe the ambience and reduce any traffic noise. We... More

The start of a 30 day road tour of the South Island, pre-booked all our campsites including this one for the start and end of our journey. New Zealand is very expensive for us Brits/Europeans at present and we knew what everything would cost. This is a very large campsite, very well run, very efficient and always clean and tidy....

Hi Roy, Thank you for your positive feedback. It has been a challenging time for us, so it is great to know we are doing well! As you say it is a busy place at the moment. I think the best advice you can offer a tourist who is heading to Christchurch is 'make sure you book a room.' It... More

My wife and I stayed in a basic cabin for our last 2 nights in New Zealand. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. They organised our airport transfer for 3am which gave us peace of mind. The location is great, not far from the airport (but far enough for no noise!), close to a big shopping mall and... More

Hi there, Thanks for your feedback! It is great to know we are doing a good job. We are indeed very fortunate to be so well placed between the airport and city centre. The city is just a short bus ride away. We look forward to hosting you again some time. More

We loved our stay in a deluxe standard unit. With two young children the park was fantastic, there is an amazing playground and warm swimming pool with a great slide. The unit was well priced, modern and had just what we needed. We used the communal facilities which were really close, clean, and not overcrowded. The park is in a... More

Stayed one night in motel unit. Worked fine for us. Well suited for families with playground and swimming pool. Seemed a little expensive for what we wanted but accommodation in Christchurch is at a premium and I feel the ones that are still operating have let their service standards slip. Usually when I travel I can negotiate a better rate... More

I am pleased your stay with us was suitable to your requirements. Just as far as pricing goes, the rates are currently using within the Park were set 18 months ago. We do have a lot of specials on our room rates. These are not always available at this time of the year, as it is usually a busy time... More
