It was like a home away from home! The views were fabulous, the beds were so comfy! And we loved the outdoor area. It really made the final day of our trip so special. Carolyn was so kind and accommodating.

In summary, I felt very comfortable here. I actually wanted to use the space. Stayed in a 6-bedder, room was big and spacious. Under bed no lock / closure but I like that cuz i can access my things a lot more conveniently and has a lot more height and space to store things. Appreciate the small details like spare chairs in the room, a small mirror, the extension cord in the room etc. Showers were bright and good. Restrooms clean. Kitchen very well-equipped and clean. Has fridge and freezer. Great community lounge hall and views. Most importantly, the people who run the place are awesome and welcoming and genuinely want their guests to have a good time in Waitomo. Ask them for recommendations before you book attractions. The guest mix I had while staying 1-night there was also so wonderful and I really had a good night there that I will remember.

Very clean facilities, and the park is set up so that the pool and playground are in view of most of the cabins and powered sites. Staff were friendly and helpful with late check in. Very close to the Waitomo caves.

It was clean, dry and warm. I arrived late at night in the rain and the young man who I met at the office was an exceptional host. I had a nice sleep listening to the rain and woke up early in the morning to sound typical on a NZ farm - magpies and bleating lambs. It was really lovely.

What guests said about Waitomo Caves:

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great.

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great. Our tour guide held the kids' attention the entire way and answered all of their questions. The caves are amazing to see and this walking tour is just the right length, even for young kids. Don't forget to book ahead and take a warm top as it is quite chilly down there.

My first trip was 45 years ago.

My first trip was 45 years ago. In comparison back then there was no boat ride. So that was a nice way of finishing the tour. It was summer back then so there were more glow worms. So best time would be in the warmer months. We’re allowed to take photos at the very end only. Would have been nice to have been able to take a few of the caves itself without a flash as memorabilia. Also with groups going through close together it was hard to hear what our guide was saying over other guide’s voices. “Cup of tea” (John) was an excellent guide and very humorous and knowledgeable.

We booked an excursion with The Legendary Black Water...

We booked an excursion with The Legendary Black Water Rafting Experience Waitomo Caves and it was amazing! Our guides, Garret & Alicia, were fun, helpful, informative, and made sure were were safe in the cave & the water; this is is a must do! They take pictures for you because it would be impossible to float in a tube & take pictures yourself.

Our tour of the caves with a local guide was great.

Our tour of the caves with a local guide was great. It made all the difference that it was a local Māori guide telling us the historical story of the caves and those that first offered it for viewing. Our guide was funny and informative. The walkways were well lit and we felt safe the whole way round. Our grandchildren 11yrs and 8yrs loved the boat trip in the dark and were mesmerised by all the glow-worms.

On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer.

On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer. Went to two caves the first, after a short walkthrough bush we entered the cave and then got into a rubber raft where we were pulled along the underground stream , looking up at the ceiling it was covered with glow-worms. Very pretty & fascinating. After a coffee break we went into the second cave where we saw lots of stalagmites and stalactites and even the bones of an ancient extinct bird, the Moa. The guide was very knowledgeable and told us how the rock formations were formed. An excellent tour.

Stunning stalactites and stalagmite formations. A huge cave.

Stunning stalactites and stalagmite formations. A huge cave. The tour guide was well spoken and clear and sung beautifully to demonstrate the acoustics. Very clean and spacious walking areas, well supported stairs. Much bigger than imagined. The glow worms were so pretty it was like a stary night sky in the outback. Priceless experience.
