The Russell to Okiato walk crosses the rear of the property and offers spectacular ocean views. If you’re coming across from the Opua ferry, this tranquil holiday park is situated just 2km away.

Lovely remote break
Awesome place, had fun on the kayaks, heard the Kiwi and saw other bird life all around. With no light pollution around, had clearer view of the milkyway too.

A great property for dog lovers, was a real treat to be able to take out 2 dogs on holiday with us. The Chalet was perfect for our needs with two kids in tow, only minor negative was all the cutlery and dishes were filthy and needed rewashing. Overall a pleasant stay.

We had a lovely stay, two happy and friendly ladies managing the facility.
We had a lovely stay, two happy and friendly ladies managing the facility. Having the cooling system in the accomodation was a bonus and we made good use of the dingy and kayaks. Very quiet and private felt very relaxed, the facility is well set up to accommodate pets although we did not take our dog we were adopted by the facility dog who paid us daily visits. Managed to see a Weka but did not see or hear Kiwi, lots of bird life in the surrounding trees and bush. Very pleasant. Thank you.
