We were very let down by the service and cleaning standards. My husband surprised me with a 1 night stay for my birthday and our anniversary. We arrived on time but had to wait 20mins in the carpark before the room was ready and the 4wd was available. The showers were filthy, and a large amount of the solar lights did not work. When contacted about the state of the showers the response was nice and apologetic, we were told they were sending us something. Approx 4 weeks later a package arrived with a handful of bath supplies from their supply closet . . . We dont own a bath. Very disappointed for the price we paid.

Staying at Wild Canvas was awesome! I would highly recommend! The views are stunning, the glamping tent was gorgeous and there where so many lovely little extras included. My favourite was the lovely claw foot baths and relaxing under the stars! Nearby activities: We stopped at Waitomo on our way and went ziplining - it was the perfect weekend away!

Who knew Waitomo was so magical (we didn't). My partner and I recently ventured North from Hawke's Bay to check out a neck of the woods we had not yet visited. Of course we had planned to stay in the area in style and had booked well in advance the Kowhai tent. While I am a a keen glamper and couldn't wait to check out what awaited us on the hill, I think the overall highlight of the trip for my partner was driving the Jimney up the farm track... Boys will be boys. But wow, what a magical stay, the baths overlooking NZ farmland, the outdoor movie projector, the fire pits around the tents glowing at night and the big plush bed that we spent a lazy day reading in - All receive a big five stars from us. We also really enjoyed checking out the Waitomo caves before we headed home and also made a wee detour up to Hobbiton to complete the birthday trip. There's no doubting that we will be back.
