The best available Campgrounds to stay near Rotorua

May 1, 2023 Terina Blouin

Bubbling mineral springs and pools promise maximum relaxation in Rotorua, on New Zealand's North Island. Therapeutic hot mud pools, dramatic geysers and a buried village are within easy reach of the city. What happens in the bubbling mud geysers of "Rotovegas"—the area at the top of Fenton Street—stays in Rotovegas. Once you've made the most of the mud, soar nearly 2,000 feet on the Skyline Gondola for views of Lake Rotorua, then zip back down to explore the lake by paddle steamer, fishing charter or WWII amphibious vehicle.

Not recommended, won't be back

Reviewed By Haydn555

First time back in 20 odd years,, used to enjoy staying here frequently.. Pools are great, everything else needs work. A bit of a clean would help. Arrived at the start of a long weekend before the place got busy and the shared shower/toilet block was already in a filthy state. Look like they haven't been cleaned or maintained in months, with thick layers of dust and flaking paint. Don't want to think about the matted hair and what looked like old blood and snot stains on the shower walls. Missing bench seat in one shower, with rusty bent brackets remaining. The list goes on...... won't be back..

Waiteti Trout Stream Holiday Park

A Bit Sad

Reviewed By Adrienne F

We stayed one night in an old self contained unit. Unit smelt on entry, net curtains had rips in them, shower had hair on the wall and bottom. Coffee mug was not clean, had dried dregs and the cutlery was sticky. Remote did not work and dust on the cabinet, I did not point this out to the proprietor. However the bed was comfortable even thou broken. The grounds in general is pretty down by the stream and can accommodate a number of people. The units at the front of the complex looked to be better.

Tui Ridge Park

School camp experience.

Reviewed By Moirhost

This wonderful adventure experience was a pleasure to be involved in. Hidden away in farmland about 20 minutes North west of Rotorua is this huge outdoor forest adventure area with plenty of activities for all age groups. A variety of accomodation choices from dormitory and camp sites to well appointed chalets. Every part of this experience was exceptional and would highly recommend this park.
