Reviews

Amazing experience in Tasman Motor Camp ! I’ve stayed there for 2months+ and it’s probably the best place in the area. For a fair price you get everything you need, from clean and modern facilities, 2 furnished kitchens (which is more than enough for the size of the camp), a gaming room, pool, laundry etc You don’t need to take a long walk, everything is easy to reach and feel cozy in the common areas. Ideally located between Nelson and Abel Tasman, you can just also go to the lovely Mapua and enjoy a nice walk on the beach without driving far. The owners are also very great, will always be there for you if you need anything, the atmosphere feels like a big family ! Definitely recommended it and will come back if I could, Merci :)

A great campsite with a cosy kitchen with lots of utensils, clean toilet block (showers are 1 dollar) and lovely pitches. A great atmosphere around the camp. We would highly recommend!

Brilliant cosy camp, excellent facilities, adult pool table as well as area for the kids with their own. Spotless & very welcoming.

This is Honestly a Gem. Great friendly staff, great rooms. An actual comfortable bed to sleep on. Cooking facilities are clean modern. Plenty of cooking items to use. Lots of fridge and freezer in kitchens and a small one in room. The laundry is good also. The bathrooms are very nice, but the showers are lacking pressure. Not a major but something to be aware of. The heated pool is amazing especially on hot days. The kids gaming room was also nice to see. A great location and a great place to be. If you want to live on your devices might not be the best as wifi was spotty but served its purpose for checking emails etc. definitely recommend to anyone heading up.
