Tasman Holiday Parks - Christchurch

Squished in like sardines They really take advantage of the high amount of campervans in Christchurch! All the big RVs get a decent hard standing with grass and picnic tables next to them (for $89 a night), but the small campervans are squished into tiny spots that you can barely fit onto. We booked the expensive site just to treat ourselves, thinking it would be clean and spacious… Stayed one night in our 5m campervan. We were on a spot that was big enough for one campervan comfortably, but they squish two onto it, with our side doors about 1 metre apart. This was the smallest site I’ve seen since travelling the north and South Island. It’s one of the last we’ve seen, the most expensive we’ve stayed at, and the worst! We asked to move to another site if possible, and swapped to another grass pitch with no one next to us. Less muddy, but not very wide. Our 5m van literally only just fit, the bumper as close to the wall as possible and the boot opening over the road. The facilities did not make up for this either, the bathrooms were dirty from 2:30pm when we arrived, until we left at 10am the next day. They are not cleaned regularly as they state. Yes, I could have asked them to come and clean the bathrooms, but I thought that would be included in the $79 a night! We did receive lovely service from the ladies on reception, and there’s plenty of bathrooms, kitchen space and other stuff to do on site. If you want lots of activities and don’t mind the high price tag, maybe this is the place for you, but if you just want somewhere clean and comfortable to stay in your campervan, maybe look elsewhere.

We started our NZ roundtrip here! Great place for camper and families but also people like ourselves with a rental car. Nice and cosy with great activities like swimming pool, playground and inside plays. We enjoyed 2 nights with our 5 year old son. Way to start a beautiful journey through NZ.

We stayed for three over the Christmas holidays. The park maximized the areas available. We asked for a plot for our caravan so we could put up the awning and we where told we could have a larger plot. We arrived and found we could not use the awning. With no where close or obvious to park our car. While the plots are fine for campervans but not for caravans due to lack of space. On the up side the park was clean, staff very good, the toilets and showers where great.

We booked a powered site here in the RV. Park was clean and tidy. Park is at the outskirts of CBD but not too much of a hassle if you have a vehicle. Toilets were clean and tidy. Kitchen was clean and neat. Laundry has tap and pay. Kids enjoyed the playground and the karts. There are also activities for kids in the reception.

We recently stayed here for initially 4 nights but decided to extend our stay another night as we enjoyed it so much! The kids loved the indoor pool, our cabin was comfy and clean. They had activities on like pizza oven, movie night for the kids and colouring etc in reception. A very friendly family like holiday park and we will definitely be back. Thank you guys for the awesome stay!

We stayed for 2 nights in our caravan and wished we could stay longer. Such a lovely park. Really clean and tidy. Showers very hot. Staff are lovely and helpful. One of our best so far 10 /10

Just came from the star of our vanlife experience arriving from airport. Reception is open late which is good. They have a heated pool that I didn’t go. Amenities are good, good showers and toilets and big kitchen and fridge. Washers and dryer too. The only downside is we’re are packed like in the mall parking lot

Good but nothing special park close to city centre. We used a powered site so cant conment on rooms. Van site was good, but the park is very narrow and was very busy. Was the hardest park of our trip to navigate the motorhome around, very tight. Has a hot swimming pool, looked great but maybe a tad small for how popular it was. Bathrooms lacked deep cleaning, above head level looked filthy, but was clean up to head level. Mens room had some issues going on at the time but were being fixed. Overall good park but not perfect. Has some great features for families / kids. Good option despite the cons, was convenient for our first night in NZ after exploring city centre before heading off the next day for our road trip
