The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Hot Tub Bliss

During my stay, I had the wonderful experience of soaking in the hot tubs available at the park. The family tub at 38 degrees was perfect for relaxation after a busy day of exploring, while the adult tub at 40 degrees provided the ultimate calming escape. It was especially good on cooler days, allowing me to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. I couldn't recommend these enough for a perfect leisure time!

Comfortable Family Cabin

I stayed in a Family cabin that was just what we needed! The small fridge and TV within the cabin made it convenient for our family of four, reducing the need for frequent trips to the communal kitchen. The cabin itself was also soundproof, ensuring we had peaceful nights without disturbance. The comfortable beds with supplied linen helped us rest well for our exciting adventures the next day!

Really good Shower Experience

The communal bathroom facilities were impressively clean and well-maintained. I particularly loved how the showers had great water pressure and provided hot water almost instantly without any timers. It made getting ready after a long day of activities a breeze! It's definitely one of the features that adds value to staying at the park.

Fun for Kids!

My kids had an absolute blast at this holiday park! The trampoline and swimming pool were huge hits with them, and they would have happily spent all day splashing around. The setting was perfect for family fun, ensuring that we all had nice experiences during our stay. It's a fantastic place to create lasting family memories!

My stay at the Alpine-Pacific holiday park was wonderful overall! We enjoyed the cleanliness and comfort of our room, and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic. Elise, a team member, was a standout with her warm and friendly demeanor, which made our experience even better. However, the distance to the bathroom can be inconvenient, especially at night, which was a downside. Despite this, the overall vibe of the place, including the pet-friendly environment and beautiful nearby hiking trails, made it a great choice for our family.

My stay at the holiday park was a mix of good and bad experiences. The campsite was clean, and the area was peaceful, with stunning views of snow-capped mountains. However, the management was unhelpful regarding booking issues, and the proximity of tents made parking challenging. Overall, it has a beautiful setting but lacked proper customer service and space.

We had a fantastic stay at the park hotel, using it as a base for whale watching and exploring the area. The rooms were spotless and offered stunning views of the mountains. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and relaxing in the hot tub, which were clean and well-maintained. Although our overall experience was excellent, we faced a slight inconvenience due to limited dining options in the area. Overall, it was a great value for a tourist hotspot.

I had a decent stay at the hotel with some positives and negatives. The location is beautiful, and the accommodations are clean and comfortable. However, I found the kitchenette stocked poorly for a self-catering experience and had issues with the Wi-Fi limits. Overall, I appreciated the pleasant communal areas but felt the value for money was lacking given the amenities provided.

I had a great stay at this campground! The beds were comfy, the location was peaceful, and the facilities were definitely a highlight. However, my recent experience with staff left me a bit disappointed, which overshadowed an otherwise nice visit. The amenities were great, but the interaction with one staff member was not ideal.
