“A fantastic, hands-on experience for all ages! We had such a great time at this museum. It was incredibly interactive with loads of fun things to do, and we learnt so much along the way. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was really well set up—perfect for curious minds of all ages. It’s an especially great place for kids, and we can’t wait to come back when our baby is old enough to get involved too!”

“Stayed here for work purposes and it was one of the best stays I've had in Hawke's Bay! Kate was great to work with during the booking process and made sure our group was well looked after! The house was clean, big, and modern and had everything you needed. I would definitely come back again :)”

“Although full restoration of the Municipal Building is incomplete, the Opera House, Foyer and Atrium conversion (to a fully operational function centre) restore the complex to a functional state capable of hosting large events and conferences. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and organised, willing and able to assist from planning to execution of your event. The Opera House acoustics remain world class, the upgrade has improved audience comfort while retaining its Art Deco era appeal. From a technical A/V perspective I did notice a small amount of noise from the venue power supply, but this was easily dealt with.”

“Vital resource staffed by wonderful empathic but realistic people. A safe place. Various classes held and support of needed is there to. I'll say again. A safe place. It's calm and gentle but with events and classes to stimulate. You don't have to be referred. Great spaces for artistic classes plus so much more. If you're in need of info to help protect you, but it's not an emergency as such,( maybe getting there though), these wonderful hard working - Angels in disguise, will not just point you in right direction and hook you up with those you need, they offer comfort to those who were in dire need and no one else to talk to. Trust them. Also just for any lady, Trans or non binary to enrolled in many self improvement classes and creative classes when you thought your creativity had been crushed out of you. Just go visit even if it's just to sit in the sun and have a cup of tea. They are a huge resource. Make use of them.”

“Great extension to the existing park. Plenty of adventure and creativity equipment to entertain and keep the kids happy for hours. Also a central water feature to help cool down on those hot summers days. Plenty of areas to climb and swing with a junior and senior play area. Also, caters for some children activities for spacially challenged children. This means younger children can play more freely without getting hurt. Come and let the kids explore. New toilets have been added close to the park.”

“It’s such a beautiful park and an amazing community resource. Brilliant for dogs with a huge off lease area and free poo-bags. So many lovely mature trees for shade, and if you have kids there’s an excellent playground. Top spot”

“One of the best playgrounds in NZ, splash pad, great slides and climbing structures, variety of swings and lots for even little kids to do as well. Our kids from 2 - 12 could have spent the whole day here”

“This resort has both accommodation and camp sites. It's so far about the normal It's unbelievable. Amazingly luxurious glamping tents, rooms with every amenity and gorgeous facilities. There are lounges and a heated swimming pool with spa bath, a sauna and I've bath in the ample landscaped grounds, and all next door to the boutique 'village' of Havelock North.”

The kitchen at Common Room takes a simple, bistro-style path and lets the food speak. Portions are generous yet well judged. A family‑friendly feel comes through naturally. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy.

“Awesome facilities for kids. Very good toilets. Go in the second gate with grass entrance if your freedom camping, Not the main gravel entrance. The council staff were their in the morning doing an amazing job keeping the place tidy and adding more playground.”

“Just popped in for a coffee and a cuppa. Spied the GF Berry Custard Slice in the Cabinet. Being a Coeliac it was a treat to see something different other than a solitary Chocolate Brownie that a lot of Cafes have just to say there is a GF option. SoHo had a number of GF options. The slice was to die for. Got it heated and it was just heaven. One of the nicest slices I’ve ever had. I’ll be back Soho. Thankyou. Great spot”

“Went for countdown 2020. Small plaza neighbouring to the seaside. Good vibes that night.”

The Old Church, Weddings and Functions leans into a breakfast-and-brunch approach with no fuss. Good value shows in the serve sizes. Eggs land on point and toast stays crisp. Team members keep things friendly and on task.

Three Doors Up Restaurant and The th Door Lounge Bar delivers a classic fish-and-chips offering that’s straight to the point. Plates offer plenty without tipping heavy. Portions suit sharing without losing balance. Music and pace keep a casual tone.

“Loved being able to watch the FIFA match between NZ & Vietnam so close to home & relieved to find excellent covered seating in case the weather changed. Needed more food trucks to serve the crowd. I gave up waiting after 20 mins.”

“Sealed road all the way to the campsite. Stunning place to relax along the Mohaka River. We stayed one night and woke up to amazing birdsong in the morning. The sound of water at night is peaceful too. Would definitely recommend if you're wanting a place to stay between Napier and Taupo.”

“Great venue with fabulous stage. Dressing rooms and make up rooms are very good.”

“Great little zoo to get up and close with the animals. Very reasonable entry prices and giftwares that are available in the mini store area. Feed is also available for feeding the animals on site. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location wasn't too bad either. Would happily visit again in the future.”
