Very remote spot with basically no reception, but that’s part of the charm. Beautiful night sky for stargazing. Large kitchen and a nice common room. You can rent dishes for a small deposit, which is understandable since things probably get lost or not cleaned. Long drop toilets but they were clean, and there are showers (hot costs extra, cold is free). Very close to Wharariki Beach. Some of the other reviews here seem a bit harsh – it feels like the best has been made of a very remote location.

Bel emplacement, mais pas la peine de 120 $ pour un site sans électricité. Des toilettes portables sales et une cuisine sale, des douches coûtent 2 $ pour 5 minutes, pas de station de collecte de déchets ou de décharge. Wi-Fi est 10 $ pour 1 GB et il n'y a pas de réception mobile. Le propriétaire conduit fréquemment une moto bruyante à travers le camping. La plage est belle, mais il y a un parking public à proximité, donc rester la nuit n'est pas nécessaire.

Worst campground ever! There's nothing good to say. You pay so much for the campsite but everything costs extra. Dump toilets, no cell service, no trash cans, and Wi-Fi costs $10 per 1 GB and can only be used at reception, not at your vehicle. It couldn't be worse!

Pros:close to beach, big camp kitchen, front dude is friendly, lots of walks in the area, nice and green. Cons: Drop toilets, light sensors in shower last 5min and turn off while showering, toilet lights last 2min, sites close to each other, no rubbish bins, paid showers, no crockery/cutlery provided need to hire, stoves need lighter to work, cafe has music playing 9-6pm so no quiet during the day, toilet doors slam and can be heard through the site, some dude rides his motorbike back and forth

The tranquility of this beautiful spot has been ruined by the host going back and forth from his accommodation/workshop through the campsite to reception on his mototcycle all day. Also from the loud music blasting vom morning till early night coming from said accommodation/workshop. I have stayed before but won't stay again till the host changes.

Nice campsite with good facilities, area is slightly remote and you have to pay for showers on top of campsite fee. Limited phone signal.

This campsite was very disappointing. The place is extremely run-down and poorly maintained. There are only pit toilets, and the showers are in bad condition and cost extra. There is no mobile network at all, and Wi-Fi is only available for an additional fee. There is also no option to dispose of general waste. On top of that, the staff was unfriendly and unhelpful. Overall, not recommended.

Nice camping only a short walk from Wharariki Beach, barely phone signal but you can buy 1 GB for 10 NZD and the Wifi works around the reception and the near by cafe, hot showers for 2 NZD, one laundry machine and one dryer, nice kitchen area and common room, no flush toilets but facilities are clean.

Stayed over for the new year. In a stunning location with access to some of the best walks in New Zealand, worth the stay on its own. The drive there is beautiful too but the last road is gravel but not awful! Site has good facilities, toilets, shower, cold washing and kitchen. No signal until you venture out from the grounds. $10 for 1gb of wifi seems like a ripoff to me but didn’t use it, the seclusion was a welcome change.

Stunning location, lovely welcome from the owner, everything well explained as to what to expect on site. Such good value given the remote location and beautiful beach. Definitely a favourite.
