Welcome to the West Coasts funkiest, couple focused, quirky tourist park. With some of the worlds most beautiful and rugged coastlines Ross Beach TOP10 is situated on the edge of the Tasman Sea. “Absolute beachfront” doesn’t do this location justice! Set on 6 landscaped acres this is a purposefully designed RV park offering spacious, level, powered and unpowered sites and 11 quirky, up-cycled and converted shipping containers, or as we like to call them “Apartment pods” or “sleeping pods”. Each container has been individually designed and all offer a great nights sleep. The Maxi Apartment, Sunset Studio & Tui Studio Pods are fully self-contained, whilst the remaining Whanau Pod has full access to the communal amenities of camp kitchen, ablution block, and guest laundry. Come and experience their unusual amenity whilst being at one with nature.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Pretty sure everyone who goes there, is simply stopping for the sunset. Great spot to see the sun go down. Can get quite windy though. Kitchen is a little small. And there is few showers and toilets if you go in the non-peak season. Everything was nice and clean though. Has a fire pit too!

This is a multi-purpose campsite with RV areas and individual ‘cabins’ - plus glamping type pods under construction. We stayed in a cabin with a fantastic sea view and nice decking area plus an outdoor hot tub. However, the ‘cabin’ is actually a long box with floor to ceiling glass walls and no room to move. The gap between the end of the double bed and the front glass wall is about 15” and impossible to walk easily past to get to the bathroom. Carpet on a bathroom/toilet floor is never a good idea for obvious reasons! There are several high end appliances including a milk frother, but very little in the way of pans and utensils - and only a 1 ring mobile electric hob (kept in a drawer). We were glad of the electric heater as it was extremely cold overnight with so much glass and blinds providing no insulation. There is a communal kitchen and lounge area (which we didn’t use) and a good sized laundry area (2x 2$NZ per wash/dry load) which we did. The campsite is at the end of a very long, straight road which isn’t really walkable (especially in the dark) so a visit to The Historic Empire Hotel requires a designated driver. Sue, the site manager is very friendly and helpful but the site seems much more suited to campervan travellers than visitors like us who are touring and staying in B&B/motel accommodation. In comparison to the many other places we’ve stayed on this trip, this was the poorest value for money in terms of accommodation, but the best in terms of the view.

Hi Philip, Thank you for your feed back, we welcome all, as it’s a constructive way to move forward. I’m so sorry to hear that you didn’t really enjoy your “tiny home” experience, our Sunset Studio is as photographed and is based on a 20ft shipping container, so we have to work with the size it is. Hope you enjoy the rest of your New Zealand trip. Please be mindful that most rural areas do not have street lights when off the main roads and a short walk (3km) in the day can take a lot longer at night. Take care Sue

Stayed for 1 night in May 2023 We arrived late due to our tours during the day at the glaciers but we arrived just in time for check-in as they were closing at 8pm. However we were greeted by the friendly front desk and given that there were no other campervans for the night we were told we could pick any of the campervan spots (unpowered) along the beach for the night. From sunset to sunrise we had the best views of the horizon. The communal facilities were all very clean and modern from the kitchen to the lounge, shower and laundry blocks. Plenty of shower rooms available including some that have a toilet in them. Great facilities and great surrounds make it a memorable stay for us. We did not have any issues during our stay.

Nice location and overall a cool camp. But, over $47 for a single person to stay at a powered site is pretty steep. As I was entirely self contained and a member of TOP 10 I hope you see that you may get more people staying and promoting your camp if you match costs to use.

We stayed in the Sunset Pod - it was cosy and a lovely location with sea views. In the summer it would be even better as you could utilize the deck space (ie - provide a lot more room). This is a lovely place to stay if you want peace and quiet in lovely surroundings. The bed was comfy with plenty of warm linen and an effective heater - needed for these winter months! Outdoor bath looked lovely though we didn't try it due to the coldness outside, being wintertime. Great to park right outside the Pod too.

This is a beautiful little coastal campground nestled away right beside the rugged west coast beach, great little facilities, let down by disappointing terms and conditions. When confirming an accommodation reservation at Ross Top10, it is absolutely non changeable and nonrefundable. You can pay an additional $15 -$30 booking fee above and beyond the tariff they call a “Flexi rate”, however the option to make booking changes or cancellations up to the day prior to arrival is generally the industry standard and FREE at almost all other holiday parks.

Hi Steve, glad you enjoyed our wee holiday park. I’ve reviewed your reservation (if you are the same Steve Wilson that stayed with us in Feb 23). And can see that you paid for a powered site and booked direct. This had the standard TOP 10 terms and conditions of 25% cancellation fee 72hrs or more before arrival. We do have flex rates which allow for 100% refundable 24hrs prior to arrival. I hope you can find it in your heart to change the 2 star review to reflect that you had enjoyed your stay and was not in any way penalised by our terms and conditions.

We had the most pleasant time staying here. We enjoyed a lovely private sunset spa following by watching the rugby on TV in the modern facilities. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Our morning was spent sitting on the beach right by the camper doorstep having coffee. We cannot wait to come back.

Whether you are travelling and just staying for a night or able to stay for a few days, this is a lovely holiday park that is in a great location, has high quality facilities and a great team onsite.
