Public pools & Water park in Dunedin

“Great safe place to swim just make sure you check the water has a safe rating.”

“Fabulous Botanic garden! Spent around three hours and could have used double of that - at least! But then I do love plants and trees. Visiting mid-november plenty to see. I felt, I only scratched the surface. A few places I could not find a name on the plant, but I probably would have found it else where if time havde been plenty. Don't miss the aviary!”

“Lovely quiet little location. Very tidy and well kept gardens. Great lookout over the port.”

“You can visit the world's only mainland colony of Royal Albatross at the tip of the Otago Peninsula in Dunedin, New Zealand. Small guided tours to a glassed hide allows viewing of some of the nesting albatross. To protect the albatross from human disturbance, the headland is not publicly accessible. You can see adults in flight with their three metre wingspans as they glide around the headland. The centre is free to enter but tours are charged. Uneven terrain, lot of walking. Toilets available. Cafes available on site. Before the walkabout tour, you are given a demonstration/lecture about the birds and the work of the centre. Popular with tourists. Wear comfy shoes, take water, wear hat, sunscreen. Parking is easy. Amazing place to visit. Great place for photography.”

“Great place to go 5 stares would recommend”

“Good for ages 2 - 6 after that age go to the school for kids to play”

“Dunedin Opoho Park also has very nice flowers.”

“Most Amazing staff today, 2 people helped me to my car to unload groceries as I had two little girls in tow. It was bucketing down with rain & I’m just so grateful for this kind service. Thanks a million :)”

“Very cool area. Nice to be beside the sea. Grounds are well looked after, mowed and no rubbish floating around. Cool playground for the kids.”

“We stayed at the Waihola holiday park in our caravan for a weekend. Facilities on-site were all clean in the kitchen and bathrooms. Happily use the amenities if needed. Great view of the lake. Our powered site was perfect for us. Overall a great stay”

“Fantastic park home of Harbour RFC”

“Amazing store, amazing staff Even new staff under training get to know regular customer preferences and in general they way the staff treat you is the best I've seen at any supermarket anywhere. Always clean and tidy and always has an atmosphere of welcome and efficiency. What I like the most is the age range of staff.”

“Southern Rugby Club - I was there to watch my youngest play rugby (junior grades). The club is great, people are friendly - like that they have a tuck shop there open from the first games. Very handy on the cold winter mornings where you can pick up a hot coffee or some food when you are watching games. Great club”

“We like this playground. It provides confidence and stretches our grandchilds ability. It's handy for parking, toilets very handy. It's a sunny spot. Seating is available. Sports grounds next door. Good area for small children to play on equipment and large area for kicking a ball or running around”

“Always loved this place as a child, seen people walking their dog and there are toilets to use.”

“Beautiful park, amazing view and a quality turf.”

“I stayed here for 13 nights in a Superior King Room on the 4th floor. Overall, it was a very comfortable and pleasant stay. The location is excellent — right in the heart of the city and just a short walk from The Octagon. Many major attractions, restaurants, pubs, banks, and a Woolworths are nearby. There are also around five Indian restaurants within walking distance, so it’s easy to find Indian lunch or dinner options. The room was spacious, quiet, and carpeted, with a king-size bed, two chairs, a table, and a bathroom with a bathtub. There was also a small kitchen area with a kettle, refrigerator, a few cutlery items, and complimentary tea, coffee, cookies, and milk provided daily. The bed was comfortable, and there was plenty of wardrobe space. Each room had an iron, ironing board, hair dryer, alarm clock, and a TV with around 22 channels (no Netflix or Amazon Prime). A heating pump and a separate fan were also available, which was very convenient. The room was cleaned daily, and towels were changed on alternate days. Breakfast was tasty and started at 6:30 am on weekdays and 7:00 am on weekends. I am vegetarian and found a few good vegetarian options. The breakfast spread included juices, breads, tea, coffee, hash browns, noodles, milk, curd, cornflakes, pancakes, muffins, croissants, and many more items. Breakfast was included in my booking; otherwise, it costs around $30 per person. I didn’t opt for lunch or dinner, but room service is available if needed. • Wi-Fi is free in all rooms and has good speed. • Laundry facilities are available; it costs $5 per cloth for washing and drying. • Elevator is available and works smoothly. • Car parking is available at $25 per night, but you can also find free parking nearby. • Check-in and check-out were smooth, quick, and hassle-free. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and available 24/7. They were always ready to assist with any request. A wonderful stay overall — perfect location, comfortable rooms, tasty breakfast, and great service. Highly recommended for families and anyone visiting Dunedin for a short or long stay.”

“Great boozer, good service. Pokies don’t pay though”

“Nice venue to watch a good game of rugby”

“We had a powered site for two nights (early October 2025). The bathrooms are very clean & tidy (plenty of toilets and showers). And there's a large kitchen, with a seated dining area. The hosts are very nice. Oh, the location is just behind the beach. And the caravan park is perfectly located = short 8min drive to the city (easiest parking for motorhomes is directly across the train tracks, from the Dunedin train station). It's a quick walk up over the tracks to access the train station AND the city centre. And 30min north-east of the caravan park is the Albatross Centre (worth going to). There's a "coastal route" and a "plateau route" = both are the MOST scenic drives you shall ever do in your life.”

“Great place to launch your yacht”

“Stayed here for many months while I worked in Dunedin and couldn't recommend enough. The staff Bianca and Mitz are so welcoming and really look after the guests! There's a bar downstairs with cheap drinks and good vibes too! Highly recommend :)”

“My boy loves it (Y1). Large playground, a swimming pool”
