Parks in New Zealand

“Awesome atmosphere. Kapahaka group from Taumarunui. Tranzit Bus Parking for Groups.”

“Very cute little playground. It has all the basics - swings, tunnel, slide, and even a cute grasshopper bouncy thing. It is a huge park to run and play games in and some nice trees to climb in the corner too. Doesn't have a public toilet.”

“Super clean & tidy. Great pools at 3 different temperatures. Lovely people who run it & the gardens were amazing. We only live 20mins away but will definitely be back.”

“We booked a powered campsite for a night on a whim at the end of October and had an incredible time at Sapphire Springs. We ended up getting the entire pool area to ourselves for an hour before it closed since it was midweek. Excellent clean facilities, and the woman working at the desk very kindly gave us tons of recommendations for our travels. Would love to camp here again!”

“Fantastic location and things to do! Heated pool, park, trampoline, giant chess board and a big screen and bean bags. Our room was great! Comfy bed, kitchenette had everything we needed and the fridge freezer was a nice size for the 3 nights stay. Awesome view of the Moana from our sea side room. From what I can see the other rooms look just as good. We stayed for the Mana Kuratahi kapa haka 2025. Our kids also loved it. Would definitely return and recommend to whanau and friends.”

“Always a pleasure . Love the Sunday train”

“We visited using the Summer Happy Hour pass and for 90 min thought it was great value as the trampolines were not overcrowded and we could use the climbing wall and the ninja course. The staff were really helpful and smiling with a good vibe too.”

“Many parents bring their children to play here. Great outdoor place for children.”

“Lovely park for children. Well looked after and electronic public bathrooms available. Added bonus - big field to let the dogs and little one tire out on.”

“One of my favourite parks, nice n quiet during the week days. Thursday 10 October 2024.”

“Was at the pools it was amazing, went water walking”

“Murphys Park is a high-quality residential development that will be home to a vibrant and thriving community Murphy Park. Auckland Parks · Public Toilets · Playground · Fitness Trail. Local Park - Sport. Dog exercise:”

“Awesome place to take the kids. We attended a birthday party. They set a area up for us and catered food and water. There's a Cafe with decent food. Plenty of parking It get hot during summer, keep the kids hydrated. No complaints.”

“I recently took my sons to Gravity Mt Wellington after they had been in an accident. They were quite nervous and hesitant to get back on the trampolines. I was approached by Shahad, the manager, on her day off. Even though she didn’t have to, she kindly approached us and spent time with my boys. She spoke to them gently and reassured them that they were safe. Her patience and encouragement helped them slowly build up their confidence. By the end of the visit, they were smiling, laughing, and jumping again. It was such a relief to see them enjoying themselves after everything they had been through. Shahad truly went above and beyond in a way that not many people would. I’m so grateful for her kindness and the difference she made for my family that day. We will definitely be coming back!”

“What an amazing find. A mostly flat field with a collection of playground equipment, with the best view from a swing, ever! The field is surrounded by native bush, and the birds love it. Only downer is the lack of parking, but perhaps that is why it is so quiet. But don't go there is a southerly :)”

“So cool! Good value for money! Had a shuttle if you didn't feel like walking. Lots of cool animals to see. Even got to feed the giraffes! Very ethical place no forcing the animals to interact it's all on there terms. Plenty of very friendly staff and awesome guides.”

“The best rugby! It was awesome to see the Crusaders Team training. Great people running for a good cause, "The Long Run". So nice to see a big community give their best to support the ones in need. I can't wait to be there next time!”

“Great sports park to walk in. No benches but fantastic to have a safe walk/run area. They have soccer in winter and I think I saw the groundsman mowing the lawn for cricket the other day. Nice open space surrounded by lots of beautiful housing”

“Great location for our one night stay, the hedges provided brilliant shelter from the strong winds. The children there made great use of the playground. Good showers even though they are not new. Small swimming pool for the children would be so welcome today in the Nor'wester 31 degrees.”

“We have recently had our daughter’s 5th birthday at Launch Pad and it was fantastic! Having access to a child friendly space for the duration, being able to bring in your own food and drinks made it nice and easy. We were very pleased with the set up and ease for the party! They take care of the clean up as well!”

“Great camping facilities and loved the location. Very spacious camp sites. We had a great time”
