Athenree Hot Springs & Holiday Park

We spent 5 days at Athenree and every one of them was great. The staff are very friendly and happy to help. It's pet friendly which is grand ,as it's nice to have our two small dogs with us. The facilities are very clean and tidy and the pools are just fabulous. Looking forward to our next visit soon.

We had a fantastic stay here during the school holidays! The facilities were simple, but clean, and good value for money. The only disappointment was the missing air hockey table!! Which has been replaced with ping pong which was still fun! Thanks so much to the very friendly and welcoming staff, we would happily recommend this venue :-)

We had a fabulous time at Athenree Hot Springs and Holiday Park. Grant was cheerful and helpful, especially when we got stuck in a soft section of grass and we had to be pulled out. Additionally, he accommodated us in a lovely location for our second to last night in New Zealand, and was enthusiastic about the continued improvements to the park in general after we commented how phenomenal we thought it was. Seriously, the small attention to detail makes all the difference and this place has nailed it. There are custom poster boards with their logo on the base, so you know they made them personally, providing information about local birds, park etiquette, and general information. They are all fabulous. There are wee towels to wipe down surfaces when you are done in the bathroom and kitchen, so you always come into a clean dry environment, that is if the person before has read the instructions! The pools themselves were lovely to soak in, and, although not following the directions, it was nice to see so many kids having fun in the big pool. We also utilised the kitchen and the amenities were excellent. Kids were having fun on the trampoline, and driving karts around on the pathways, and it seemed that everyone was having a good time at Athenree. The only possible improvement, and nothing really to do with Athenree itself, would be some kind of walking access to the beach.So, in a nutshell, on our next trip from Canada, we would deliberately head to Athenree rather than stumble into it as we did this time. Fabulous.

This is a fantastic campsite with great facilities and super friendly staff. We will definitely be staying here again in the future. The Hot Pools are brilliant especially after a day in the surf or on a bike through the rail trail.

Cool spot, we stopped through on a very wet evening in our camper. We were very last minute booking and the service was amazing and very welcoming ❤️. The hot pools were a hit with the kids and there is a playground across the way. The facilities were very clean and tidy - magic place, will be back - and hopefully there is sunshine next time!

We rented a Motel unit which far exceeded our expectations. The beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed, our own bathroom, and it was all very clean.The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the kids loved the hot pool!We would highly recommend Athenree HSHP for your next camping holiday.

This place is a wee gem! I haven't experienced such great service in a very long time. The staff were warm and welcoming - nothing was a bother. Facilities were spotless and there's everything you need. We even extended our stay - didn't want to leave!...will definitely be returning.

Nice pools. Pretty busy but still plenty of room for my 2 year old son to have a absolute blast. Adult pool was nice and hot to relax in aswell. Service was super friendly and went the extra mile to tell us all about the pools. $10 a adult was a great price

Lovely camp to stay in.Pet friendly, facilities are very clean and well maintained, as are the grounds.The staff are very friendly and helpful and the hot pools are a real bonus. They are also beautifully presented.We had our caravan and requested, and were given, a nice site next to the estuary.Athenree Camp is good value for money and it's location close to Waihi Beach is a bonus.My sister and I stayed there previously so we knew how nice it was and my partner and I definitely plan to visit again.
