Friendly space, children and adults were all enjoying themselves. Had a cabin to myself as a solo traveller, 4 beds in it (one was a bunk bed), great for families. Cabin was clean and comfortable; had a mini-fridge, kettle as well as a square dining table with some chairs. Clean and spacious. There's a food truck open for lunch and dinner, wide menu options. It is a campsite, but common facilities like kitchen, showers and toilets were all clean. Laundry room looked like it was in hot demand, so do plan well if you intend to use. No problem parking with cars or trailers or campervans. Wifi is free for 30 mins each day. Didn't expect it but after it got dark, you could see the entire night sky with all the stars 🤩

The camping is immersed in a beautiful park right close to the lake. The views are just amazing. It’s very quiet and there is also a coffee and food truck in case you get lazy and don’t want to cook.

Toilets are a bit outdated but they do the job. Free WiFi for only half an hour, then you have to purchase more GB. Shared kitchen it’s a bit small so it can get pretty busy during peak hours. Keep in mind to bring your own cutlery and plates because in the kitchen they only provide pans. Otherwise the reception can rent you kitchenware for a small price.

Beautiful lake views and I loved the glamping experience. Thoughtful details in the tent. The staff were great even if we did have to wait a bit at check in.

Denver Cove wasn't actually secluded with kids riding their bikes between tents. Power went out of fridge overnight and nothing was cold. Workers using jackhammer for a chunk of the afternoon on a Saturday was disruptive to stay. Bed is a bit hard with low quality pillows. Music playing with loud bass heard until 3am (think it was an adjacent property).

Loved the bell tent. We arrived later in the evening and so the staff had already put the heater on in our glamp tent, so thoughtful. It was warm when we arrived, and the powered plugs were so good to charge our phones, and keep our electric blankets on, as was a cold night ahead. The outside kitchen was 20m from our tent and had a fridge, kettle, toaster and tea/coffee/sugar. Sun rise on the lake was epic and we loved the private beach like setting for the evening too. Beautoful bird sounds awoke me in the morning - such a greata experience and I will be back to try the mini lakehome. Thank you for a great stay.

The walk to the toilets was a while from the glamp bell tents. The site isn't lit with lamps, so you may need to take your torch or phone light.

We stayed in the safari tent and it was such an enjoyable experience, we will be back as a group and I'll be back with my family next time we're down south. The facilities were great, cooking on the bbq looking across the lake was stunning and having own private access to the shore made us feel super lucky. The bunk was a cool feature, my son is going to love it! The beds and bedding were super comfy. I like that if the weather isn't too good outside there's plenty of space to relax, play boardgames inside. The portaloo was clean and fresh, maybe a solar light could be out there and a camp light inside. The food truck and live music hang out was cool! All in all it was a fantastic stay, we wished we had booked for longer!

Nothing!

Loved the fact that it was seconds from the main beach, that you sat in a comfortable armchair inside facing the lake and the incredible landscape changing colours and textures throughout the day. A nice private deck with deckchair to enjoy a coffee or drink. Incredible lighting throughout, loved the bed on a platform. Felt 10 years old again. Stylishly decorated with a kitchen that had everything.

If it's privacy you're after choose the safari tent for a few extra dollars. I didn't have an issue climbing the wooden ladder but someone less mobile/flexible could struggle a bit.

It’s a nice campground and thought the accommodation would be overlooking the lake. It’s in the middle of the campground. Check in was easy as we checked in after hours and they had instructions. It does have a food truck and amenities. Very simple. Kitchen building was ok, nothing crazy. Beds were comfy, but very low bunks and no ladder for top bunk so had to use stool or be very flexible. The price was cheap, but I think I’d rather camp closer to Wanaka next time and stay in a tent.

The WiFi was only 30 minutes per booking/ 24 hours, which is limiting, especially since the room has nothing. There’s no sink in the room and facilities were across the road though. The shower pressure was low and scorching hot, so it wasn’t an enjoyable shower at all.

This is a fixed room in a campground. The bathroom and kitchen facilities are shared. My expectations were based on this and this was clearly communicated in advance. The campground is super nice. There is a dedicated food truck (e.g., not a mobile one) that is top notch both in their offerings as well as the seating area. I also took some night shots of the stars and they were stunning.

Didn't like? I cannot think of anything! I loved everything about this stay and was so glad I picked it.

I prefer to stay where it is quiet, without loads of tourists. Lake Hawea fit the bill. We spent part of a day in Wanaka and though lovely, was jam-packed with tourists. I was happy to return to quiet, relaxing Lake Hawea and have a swim in the lake. Our bed was exceptionally comfortable. Also, the Hook, between Lake Hawea and Wanaka is a great place to catch dinner.

The camp grounds and location are excellent. The shared facilities are clean and well located if staying in the cabins. The coffee cart & food options were very welcomed and a great addition to the camp ground. Definitely worth checking out the secret sauna.

The beds in the cabins are a little uncomfortable and the lighting was too bright for me - reminded me of a trip to the dentist. But we weren’t expecting 5* luxury. A sink in the cabin would be a great addition.
