Baylys Beach Holiday Park is situated 5 to 10 min walk to the longest drivable beach in New Zealand, being 112kms long. Our area is on the Kauri Coast, West Coast of Northland. Only 3 hours drive above Auckland. We always have plenty of spaces available for camper-vans(motor homes) and tents sites are a plenty. With fully self contained houses big and small available with also basic cabins being the next step up from camping. Our prices suit all budgets. Sharky's the local takeaway just up the hill. 19 Hole Golf Course close by.

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.

Great Stay!

Stayed in the Ensuite Studios. Spotless clean and great bunks. The owner is super nice and the west coast beach at sunset was beautiful. We stayed here to access Kai Iwi Lakes and felt the travel was easy to a from.

Our favourite NZ holiday park!

Best campsite we stayed at during our 3 months in New Zealand! Great facilities and a really nice short walk down to beautiful baylys beach. We stayed for 3 weeks and didn’t get bored of walking down for the sunsets. Trish was so helpful and friendly from the moment we got here and it makes for such a lovely atmosphere.

Relaxing, comfortable and laid back

An Auckland couple in our seventies who always take our dog on holiday with us, we chose Baylys Beach Holiday Park for a break from Auckland in January 2022. This was our 3rd stay in the ensuite cabin, finding its configuration and amenities clean, comfortable and adequate for our needs. The hosts as always, and the staff we met, were genuinely friendly with low-key interested daily chats that contribute to a laid back but caring atmosphere at this special place. We enjoyed leisurely revisits to the beach, local store, historic pub, museum and the Dargavile township from our handy base. Baylys Beach Holiday Park will continue to be a favourite getaway from The Big Smoke for us, as 3 years in a row now, it has consistently delivered a no-fuss, relaxing and comfortable kiwi holiday. Thank you :)…

Catch Up with Family

Awesome owners and accommodation. Couldn't be more helpful. Great cabin #8. Even kids were happy with it. They both commented on how comfortable it was. Had all that was needed. Comfortable and clean. Recommended to others, a nice kiwi style place.

Fabulous

We had 3 wonderful nights here. We had 7 of the basic cabins and 1 of the cabins with an ensuite. There were 20 of us including 8 (8-14) kids and a baby. Trish was lovely and helpful. The amenities and grounds were nice and clean! Beautiful Baylys beach is a short walk, Sharkys the local takeout is 5mins walk and makes a great cocktail and takeaway! Kai Iwi lakes are not far either. Thanks Trish we look forward to coming back!

Easter 2021

Kitchen was lovely and clean. All appliances (stove top, fridge/freezer, microwave) in working order. Hosts were friendly and helpful. We were three families who all had a great stay over Easter weekend 2021. The tent sites were spacious! Trish was great in accommodating us to have sites next to each other. Bathrooms were tidy and clean. Beach is within walking distance, with beautiful views on the way there. Campground itself had a great family atmosphere! We will be back :)

Very Good Holiday Park

It is located a at a small and quiet town approx. 18 km from Dargaville. This holiday park was clean, nice, with spacious shared kitchen, and shared dining area and children playground. You can choose either tent or camping site, or cabins, or self contained units. The self contained unit was comfy and nice, clean bathroom and toilet, with one double, one bunk bed, fit for 4 people. Not at the beach front but you need to walk 10 - 12 minutes to the beautiful lovely beach. Friendly manager, and good wifi were the add on. Happy customer.
