Second visit and another triumph
Second time staying here and although the weather was, again, less than great, it was still a great time and the units and overall space are still really well maintained. Surat Bay is accessible and, further along, so is cannibal bay. Owaka nearby is also a lovely spot for an hour or two, with a solid restaurant, great coffee place, superb book shop and quaint little museum and community space. It is a beautiful spot, far from the world where all you'll hear are birds, the sea and wind moving through water ... And rain! Lots of rain! But without the rain, you wouldn't get that lush kiwi green.

Really pleased with the cabin and the facilities

10/10 Exceptional

Just beautiful surroundings. We saw some sea lions resting on the beach. The cabin is well equipped and the shared bathrooms spotless clean. Great campground for a relaxing and peaceful time.

10/10 Exceptional

Love the location. Place was clean and comfortable for our short stay here. Wifi was great. Kids loved playing in the small beach area and the chess set.

Great location as near the beautiful big beach. Saw a sea lion basking in the sun. Cabin was well equipped, though a shelf in the bathroom for our toilet bag would have been useful.
RUTH, 1-night trip

Loved being so close to a beach at which e could watch sea lions. Kitchen was well equipped with cooking equipment, and the cooks knife in our cabin was amazingly sharp (a rarity in holiday parks).

The property is nearby to a beach where we managed to see some sea lions. The apartment itself is also well-furnished. Host is friendly and helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

Very pleasant one night stay
A short drive from Owaka - itself a pleasant enough village/town that's worth a stop for a coffee - this is well serviced accomodation in a beautiful location. The cabins are well equipped with linen, TV, a toaster and a kettle (although bring your own towels), and there are also some shared facilities for cooking. But the real reason to stay is the walk along the beach, which is accessible from the site, when the tide is low. We only stayed for a night, but this would also make a great hub for exploring other parts of the Caitlins. (I also appreciated the use of coins to limit people's shower uses.)
David, 1-night trip

Laid Back spot right on the coast
We stayed in cabin #3, which was roomy and comfortable for 2 of us. (There’s a 2nd bedroom with bunk beds, which we just used for storage of the too much stuff we were hauling around.). Location is outstanding for walking along the beach and seeing sea lions. Dining options in the nearby town of Owaka are pretty limited, but the Whistling Frog in Chaslands about 46 km west is pretty good if you are going that way.
Stephen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

an ideal place to stay for nature lovers and families who want to introduce their children to it. Our apartment had two rooms with shower and toilet so we didn't have to share it and we also had a well equipped kitchen which served us well. On the grounds there is a small playground and a common room with kitchen shower toilet and washing machines (which you have to pay for). The surrounding area is great with a few steps or minutes drive you can see sea lions in the wild, lots of different bird species and flowers. Weatherproof clothing should be taken at least at our time of travel (OCT/NOV). Shopping facilities are available in Owaka and should be planned.
