Amazing location right on the beach and 10 minute walking to Pancake Rocks! Cabin was great with a small fridge and kettle, and had a nice private deck to sit out on. The shared kitchen was really helpful and the camp provided all the cooking supplies we needed!

Dave, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What a beautiful spot! We were in the riverside cabin, absolutely stunning! Beautiful 360° views from the campsite and just a quick stroll to get to the beach. Kayaks and paddle boards also nearby to rent for the river. Punakaiki is just a special place, sunshine or rain.
Inge, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Easy access to beach and river for the little ones, mostly sand which was great. Cabin with two bunks was almost too warm overnight with 2 adults and 2 children though. Friendly, helpful staff.
Jono, 1-night trip

Nice spot to relax
Owain, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Thankful for the option of a small cabin, as all the motels in the area were fully booked. Also, the coffee/eats/ice cream cart was wonderful. Really enjoyed the easy access to the beach!
Cynthia, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful spot. Right on the beach. Quiet with good camp facilities
Adam, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The cabin we stayed in had a very strong musty odour in the bedroom. We tried to sleep with all the windows open to alleviate the noxious smell. Ended up leaving at 0330 in the morning because the smell was so terrible! The beach was lovely!
Diane, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The location is sensational. But the campsite is pretty run down. The kitchen is the worst equipped I have ever seen. And also the laundry facilities were nothing I would want to wash or dry my clothes in. Our cabin was ok with a little fridge that was great. But everything was quite damp. All in all, I wouldn't go there again even though the location is beautiful.
Petra, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Convenient location to Pancake rocks after we had travelled over Arthurs Pass. Council Caravan Park & our room was clean / tidy with all we required for one night. Lady at the desk was friendly & helpful.

6/10 Okay

Good position, cabin extremely small. No flyscreens and room filled with biting sandflies.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Bonus of food cart with whitebait fritters after 3pm. Cabins had tea and coffee but no milk. No supermarket in Punakaiki so bring food if you want to use kitchen in cabin.
Sally, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Unique stay, room is basic, pillows aren’t great. Wonderful atmosphere. Towels aren’t provided but front desk was nice and gave us some.
