Don't take our word for it

Couldn't ask for a better location, right in the middle of the mountains. Staff very nice, friendly and helpful. The restaurant is absolutely incredible offering top quality food with a diverse menu.

High quality establishment. Beautiful dining facility with superb gourmet menu. Staff was friendly and helpful. All well designed, well maintained, and well equipped. Even the campervan spaces were well appointed, with trees planted between sites to provide more privacy.

One day a Weka bird was walking around the deck. Also saw several Kea birds. Both nights we had dinner from their restaurant Pio Pio. The food was amazing including the best Crème Brulee ever.

What a place. Stayed here on our honeymoon and wow, just wow. The service was amazing, the rooms were cozy and comfortable. Not luxurious, but super comfortable. The view, however, was stratospheric.

Service was top notch, and I'd definitely recommend eating at least one dinner at Pio Pio. Pio Pio was probably our favorite restaurant we went to in New Zealand.
