Lake Ruataniwha Holiday Park Reviews

Great place to stay and spacious room. We checked in late and the key was broken. The person working there attended to us immediately even though it was out of ihours and late in the evening.

The clerk was very nice and even gave candies to the children. It was right by the lake. The room was very comfortable. Although there was no breakfast, there was a kitchen where you could make your own breakfast and dinner. After dinner, it was very convenient to take a walk by the lake. The water was very hot and the room was big.

We couldn't even book a room with a bathroom, accommodation is very tight in this area.

Poor infrastructure

주방에 요리 도구들이 하나도 없고 세제도 없으니 챙겨오시길 바랍니다. 샤워실 바닥이 타일도 아니고 그냥 쌩 돌바닥이라 당황스러웠습니다. 방은 정말 따뜻하고 좋았어요. 밤에 오면 조명이 아예 없어서 방 찾아가기가 어렵습니다.

We stayed in two different cabins on two visits. The cabins are clean and roomy. The park is quite large but surpassing quiet even on the holiday weekend when we were there. They give out a bin of kitchen stuff when you arrive so the kitchen is always clean because there's no clutter of utensils etc and you always have everything you need for meals. They used to charge for Internet but the new management is upgrading the Internet service to high speed and making it free. In the meantime they will give you a free voucher so ask for one of they forget.

Nice location close to lake (not quite as close as pictured) Clean and tidy although way overpriced. Basic amenities. Motel in a camp ground Could be peaceful but large trucks there during our stay. Service ok Typical camp ground. Need to drive to Twizel for food etc. 4-5k.

I stayed in the motel room with a spa. The room was large and comfortable. There was a nice view to the lake. The kitchenette and bathroom were modern.

The room was larger than expected and had plenty of room to spread out a little and get organized. The bed was comfortable but it was very difficult to access power for chargers and my husband’s c-pap machine. The wifi was awful. It barely worked and often the service dropped altogether. The hiking around the lake was lovely and a fairly easy walk. Even though we were attached to other units, our room was fairly quiet. I was not happy that there was a sign saying I had to clean the dishes or be charged an extra fee! For the amount we paid for the room, that was ridiculous. Also, if you want someone to do dishes, give them the proper tools to accomplish the task! There was only one small dish towel and no dish drainer or rack. There was a fairly nice playground for kids available, but we were traveling by ourselves.

We booked a cabin, and it was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. No problems, very smooth. Thanks!~

I made errors in my booking. The staff went further than best effort to sort me out. They found me accom in difficult times.

It just seems a bit run down. Lots of people live there in their RVs and have there sites walled off by fencing so we felt a bit like we were trespassing on someone else's space. Besides that, everything was fine. We stayed in a small cabin and used the shared bathroom and kitchen. Beds were not very comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Kitchen was crowded when we were there.

We box in and stay three nights. The staff are friendly and helpful. This time we were in one of the cube cabins was very clean and beds were great. Close to a beautiful lake lovely to walk around great cooking kitchen clean toilets and showers.
