“Excellent firm to deal with prompt service excellent communication plus, onsite service technician extremely proficient and came prepared with spare parts so could complete job in one visit. Would certainly recommend them to anyone requiring spa or pool services...10/10 for this company”

“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.”

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.

“Delightful little theatre with very comfortable seating. The screen is a decent size and the picture is always clear. The sound can be easily understood according to my hubby and for those, like myself who have difficulty hearing, there are headsets available. I use these in place of my hearing aids. There’s a reasonable selection of drinks including wine. We have not tried the pizzas which need to be ordered 20 minutes prior to the movie. Highly recommend checking out a flick here.”

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.

“That was awesome with Homemade Japanese food. Don't miss it. RECOMMENDED!!!”

“Just nipped in for lunch and wow, the craft beer selection here is incredible! I had a milk stout, my partner a ginger and mandarin – best drinks ever! The manager was lovely and so attentive, and the bar staff were all super helpful. The food was amazing too – the steak was cooked perfectly, so buttery and tender, it practically melted in your mouth! Can't wait to come back!”

“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.”

On the plate at Rosie O'Grady's Taradale, the idea is kebab and pita and well executed. Value feels fair for the spread. Plates offer plenty without tipping heavy. Meats are sliced to order with fresh salads.

“Fabulous little place, excellent atmosphere, fun production, friendly home town entertainment .... and we're new to the area! :-D”

“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.”

“The best live band venue, Plenty of history, huge dance floor and bands playing thurs to Saturday, Roy Brown the owner is rather Iconic too”

“Excellent service, greeted and shown our seats as soon as we arrived. The staff were always on hand checking on us, never had to wait long to ask for another drink or anything else off the menu. The food was delicious. Large meals. Wanted to try the dessert but didn't have enough room in our bellies from the delicious food. Love the garlic loaf and the mocktails were yummy.”

“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.”

Napier RSA 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. A family‑friendly feel comes through naturally.

“Don was a friendly host and the room was comfortable and value of our money. Would definitely recommend others to stay here”

“They have an awesome show on until 24th of November 2018 so get your tickets at eventfinda of door sale for razzle dazzle”

“The kind of store that you go to buy one thing and leave with a bag full of stuff you think you need. Some shelves are often left untidy due to customers not returning items they no longer want and this can be annoying at times. Recommend for kid's clothing as there is a large selection of reasonably priced stock. Other redeeming feature is the opening hours, 8am to 12 midnight for those last minute purchases!”

“Great time. I was a bit tiddly when we got there, but thank you for letting me in. My partner was our driver, so that was great. Had a Mean band playing that night 25/8/23. Cheers Team!”

“What a little gem! For a low price, I got a comfy tiny cabin with access to showers, restrooms, and the outdoor kitchen. Great location, just 20 minutes north of Napier. And the food is amazing, particularly the chicken filo, which I highly recommend.”

“Awesome escape room. Our kids had a great time and staff were extremely nice and helpful when booking, arrival and afterwards. Highly recommended.”

“Stayed here for 1 night in a 2 bedroom unit. Excellent place; clean, modern, well equipped and comfortable. Great location and the included breakfast was a bonus! Staff in the office were excellent - welcoming and friendly. Highly recommended.”
