Bay of Islands Holiday Park

On the banks of the Waitangi River in Haruru, minutes from Haruru Falls and a short drive to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds and Paihia. This Bay of Islands holiday park is family-friendly and pet-friendly (pets welcome; some tourist flats exclude pets). Kerikeri Airport is roughly 15 km away.

Spread across 4.2 hectares, the park offers around 15–16 individually decorated guestrooms plus studio and 2‑bed tourist flats, yurts, basic cabins and sites for tents, caravans and motorhomes. Plenty of shade trees, a river boundary for safe swimming and kayaking to Lilypond Falls, a large ablution block and a big recreation room keep things practical and playful.

Seasonal outdoor pool, terrace and garden, children’s playground and playroom, arcade/game room, picnic and barbeque areas, plus a pizza oven for group dinners. On-site tour booking sends you out for Bay cruises, dolphin swims, yacht charters and Cape Reinga/90 Mile Beach day trips. Free Wi‑Fi and free self-parking on site—wake up to river-side mornings and paddle upstream to waterfalls and swim holes.

Luggage storage, laundry facilities, a computer station and a microwave in a common area. Free self-parking and complimentary wireless internet make logistics easy.

On-site grocery/convenience store covers basics and communal BBQ and pizza-oven facilities let you self-cater. Nearby wineries and farmers' markets make it easy to source local produce and artisan treats.
