Do you allow pets?
Pets are welcome on site from 7 February to 20 December at a rate of $10 per pet per night, as long as we know in advance.
Pet owners must be respectful to other campers. Pets must always be kept on a leash around the park and actively supervised. Pets are not allowed in any of the park buildings including cabins, glamping tents, amenity blocks, and reception.
Please note, we do have allocated sites for people travelling with pets, so may not be able to accommodate site requests if you're bringing a pet.
Dogs must be on a leash at all times around the park and are not allowed in any of the Holiday Park buildings, cabins, or glamping tents. Please note, we do have allocated sites for people travelling with pets, so may not be able to accommodate site requests if you're bringing a pet.
What facilities do you have on site?
We have two communal facility blocks at Fitzroy Beach, with cooking facilities, fridges/freezers, and BBQ's available for your use.
Each block also has toilets, showers, and a guest laundry. To keep the kids entertained, there's a jumping pillow, a playground, and a trampoline.
Can I get a discount on my stay?
All Family Parks Travel Card holders receive a 10% discount on accommodation (up to $20 per stay on a site, $40 per stay in a cabin) as well as other great discounts nearby and around NZ.
Otherwise, the best way to get a deal is by booking direct, so check out our website to find promotional deals and best prices.
Does my cabin come with bedding and towels?
Our deluxe cabins come with all bedding and towels. Our standard cabins come with bottom sheets, pillows & pillowcases, so you'll need to bring your own bedding (e.g. duvet, sleeping bag) and towels.
Bedding is available to hire at $10.00 per bed/per night, and towels are $3.00 per person/per night. You can add these when you book online or if you've already booked, just get in touch and we can add these to your booking.
Bedding is available to hire at $9.00 per bed/per night, and towels are $3.00 per person/per night. You can add these when you book online or if you've already booked, just get in touch and we can add these to your booking.
Is there parking available at my cabin or site?
Every cabin and site has a parking space for one vehicle at no extra charge. If you have a particularly large vehicle, trailer, or multiple vehicles, it helps to let us know in advance.
You can call us on 06 758 2870 or flick us an email at [email protected] with some details about your requirements and our friendly reception team will get back to you with some options.
Can I have a site by the beach or with a sea view?
Although we're right by the beach, many of our sites and cabins don't have sea views due to both trees and sand dunes. From all sites and cabins, you're just minutes away from the great views and surf of Fitzroy Beach.
If you want to be as close as possible to the beach and/or a sea view, add a note in your booking request, and we'll see what we can do.
Can I request a specific site or cabin?
We would love to know your preferences and requirements, but we cannot guarantee specific site or cabin numbers.
If you have particular site requirements (e.g. size, location, group bookings), please let us know at the time of booking, and we will do our best to allocate a suitable site.
