Holiday Parks, Youth Hostels & Budget Lodges

Holiday Parks in New Zealand are sometimes still referred to as “Camping Grounds” however they offer much more than a tent or powered camping site.   Many provide self-contained motel units, cabins and lodge rooms.  For the budget conscious traveller or those visitors with families wanting park-like space for the children, this is a very good accommodation option.   There are an abundant number of Holiday Parks scattered throughout New Zealand, not only in the main centres but also in small provisional towns and rural areas.  Please check with your Consultant.

The global hostel network, Youth Hostel Association (YHA) has around (60) properties in New Zealand.  The range of facilities vary from place to place but the standard is always high.

Many backpacking establishments or budget lodges in New Zealand now offer “hotel-type” rooms as well as the usual dormitory and share facility accommodation.

N.B.Due to the administration & communication costs incurred by us in researching and making BUDGET accommodation bookings, the total value of your booking must exceed NZ$60 per room, per night.  All accommodation priced below this cannot be reserved by us and you will need to book direct with the property.
