Tasman Holiday Parks – Waihi Beach
Easy to book, easy access, helpful booking staff. But desperately in need of a cleanup. Overpriced for quality and cleanliness. Please dont publish my review; it is given as constructive criticism, private for the owners to work on. I have no intention of spreading bad vibes.

Tasman Holiday Parks – Beachaven
Great place to stay whilst venturing around the area. Clean and tidy and thoroughly enjoyed the soak in the spa pool after cycling the Historic Rail trail.

Palm Motel Waihi
Easy to find and great parking etc. Room clean will definitely stay again if in Waihi for work again.

Oceanside Resort & Twin Towers
The room itself was a large space but the property is very dated and tired. It did not reflect the photos in the listing. We did enjoy the spa and pool. We would of been very disappointed if we'd paid full price. A 3 star property at best in a 5 star location.

The Pavilions Beachfront Apartments
The place was great, apart from an external noise, like a loud tap filling up a water cylinder every hour day and night.
