From the moment we arrived we have been greeted by friendly and warm staff. It only gets better as the time at this wonderful camp ground goes on. Traveling with one child can have it challenges but this park has an endless amount of actives and areas to keep them occupied. From a wonderful heated pool, to a spa, a stream that you can feed eels to a child’s play area and much much more. I’m looking forward to using the authentic pizza oven tonight and was grateful to be able to watch the super rugby game last night on sky sport in the adults tv area. This afternoon i’ll burn off some calories is the gym that is right next to the pool! Bring your family here and enjoy all the things we have at anytime of the year! Koji and Tomi

The resort is situated at the north end of Waihi Beach with direct access from the park to the beach.

Terrible -utter trash!

Reviewed By Xxxxxnbc

If you enjoy sleeping right on top of other campers, dirty overcrowded facilities and the smell of urine everywhere, then this is the place for you. It is absolutely packed beyond capacity which makes for a very rowdy and absolutely unpleasant camping experience. The pool is lovely, but unbelievably dirty and crowded. It is absolutely overpriced for what you get. The photos on the website are deceiving and don’t accurately portray just how tiny the camp is.

The gorgeous Karangahake Gorge walkways are easily accessible by bike or walking via the trail, or you can choose to ride the heritage Goldfields Railway into the Waikino Station and start your adventures from there. We can assist with bike hire and transportation arrangements too, making your experience as seamless and easy as possible. Because of our location right at the base of the glorious Coromandel Peninsula, day trips from here are easily possible and Waihi Beach is only a 15 minute car ride away. We offer free unlimited fibre WIFI, with connected Smart TVs allowing you to sign in to your favourite streaming platforms such as Netflix or Lightbox.

Great room for a family of 5. Our room was clean and comfortable. Spa was great after a full on day of bike riding. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Everything was hassle free from booking online to leaving. Even though it’s on the main road it’s very quiet.

It's a little like going back to the 70's! All a bit dated, but still clean and comfortable. No towel rails. I thought there would be quite a bit of road noise being on the main road, but there wasn't. Probably wouldn't return as I thought a bit pricey for what we had.

Awesome!

Reviewed By Mateusz Ż

Lovely and peaceful place. Room is very clean. You will feel close to the nature with very chickens and friendly sheep. Most of all it is peaceful and quiet. Ideal if you wanna escape from the city. Location is very convenient. Not too far from the center but also next to lovely Gilmour Reserve and a little lake. The room is already equipped with all the breakfast foods (bread, jams, eggs, yogurt, milk, orange juice, tea, coffee, chocolate) and refilled if needed. If you happened to come on a rainy day there is TV and DVDs provided. And also spa! Hosts seem like a lovely people too. Highly recommend.

Another phenomenal stay

Reviewed By paullegate

This was my third visit to Bird's Eye View B&B, my previous stays were outstanding so I decided to stay again. Cherry and Frank are the perfect hosts and nothing is too much trouble for them, they are very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and are always on hand to help with travel plans and give suggestions on local attractions that are worth seeking out. The breakfasts are delightful, I had stewed peaches a couple of times as well as rhubarb together with a cooked breakfast cooked by Frank. This is accompanied by toast and a selection of jams and honey, freshly brewed coffee and juice. The sumptuous annexe has everything needed for a very comfortable stay. Tea/coffee facilities are provided, there is a lot of storage space for belongings and wifi is available in the property. Birds Eye View is one of the best B&B establishments I have encountered and possibly the best in the 30 years I have been travelling.
