Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Second stay and loved how quiet it was . Surf and sunsets never disappoint. Staff attentiveness to welcoming and leaving and small details excellent.
Negative: N/a I am puzzled by some of the very negative reviews. Castaways Resort Waiuku stays true to the West Coast of NZ. There is surf, black sand, and wind it is part of the beauty of this resort.
Summary: Second time staying. It will not be the last.
