Fodor's Expert Review Alpine-Pacific Holiday Park

69 Beach Rd.

Just outside town, this nicely laid-out site has cabins, studios, and full motel units, plus powered campervan sites and campsites. A wide variety of guest facilities in the crammed but nicely landscaped shared areas include hot tubs, a heated pool (summer only), a trampoline, indoor/outdoor dining, a barbecue, and a clean, modern kitchen. The view of the Seaward Kaikoura Mountains is breathtaking. There are two holiday parks on Beach Road—this one is on the inland side of the road. Because it slopes away from the main road, traffic noise is minimized. Bookings are essential in summer.

PROS

  • incredibly clean, tidy outfit layered down a terraced slope
  • hot tubs and heated pool
  • bikes for rent

CONS

  • small site can be crowded when full
  • by main road so busy entrance/exit
  • no ocean views
