When we arrived we had an argument about our top10 membership discount that the owner did not want to give to us. Even though we received the discount in all other top10's. We looked it up in the T&C's which were agreeing with us. Finally she gave us the discount with a long face. We received a tent site all... More

The ammendities were of a high standard, plenty of hot water for showers, laundry facilities were good. We enjoyed our stay and found there was lots to do... More

My partner asked this question as we pulled into this town. We had passed through some very scenic country on the way up the west coast, and I must admit I had problems answering him. Westport is a very industrial, ugly looking town, with not a lot going for it. We stayed at the Top 10, just south of Westport... More

its a great campsite we had a powered site there was plenty of room, the facilities were good. the site is very near the sea, you can smell the fresh air so it can be a little windy, but it is a good distance from the town of Westport

Top 10's are renowned for their reasonable pricing and locations all over NZ. I stayed here with a bunch of friends while road tripping around the South Island. The location is along the beach and about 6 minutes drive out of town. It's njce and quiet, with a great takeaway shop/pub just up the road. It gets quite cold at... More

This was our first time staying at a Top 10 Holiday Park. We could hear the ocean and smell the salt air in the self contained cabin unit which had bathroom and kitchen facilities, the linen, towels and soap were included. The standard was high and the accommodation clean and comfortable. We found it to be a quiet place to... More

This was our first time staying at a Top 10 Holiday Park and based on this experience I would return in a heart-beat! We tented and since we were the only crazy ones doing so, (Canadians) we had the tenting area to ourselves. The kitchen and shower facilities were exceptionally clean and the staff was so friendly.

We tried to use Top 10 sites wherever we stayed in New Zealand. The standard was always high and the accommodation clean and comfortable. We used self contained cabin units which had bathrooms and limited kitchen facilities sufficient for a breakfast or a takeaway evening meal. Linen, towels and soap were always included. They were also easy to book ahead... More

The seal colony was clean and tidy, well maintained. We camped for 2 nights, between Christmas and New Years. Although we had 1 full day of rain it was still a pleasurable stay. The kitchen is well equipped. -Be really careful in the loo/shower blocks as the floors are EXCEPTIONALLY slippery!!! -Dont forget your Sandfly spray
