Located on the Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail, Omarama Holiday Park is set on a 10-acre property and offers a children’s playground with a trampoline.

The cabin that we had was immaculate, we could not fault the cleanliness. The bed was comfortable and the facilities were perfect for our stay. The boys running the park were extremely helpful and friendly.

Everything is new and super clean. Also soundproofing let us enjoy quite night sleep after long hike in Aoraki national park. My recommendation for accommodation in this region

Nice cottage that was well set up. Lovely back deck area and we really enjoyed the loungers for star gazing on a clear night. Bed was comfortable and there was enough hot water.

Both free Wifi and parking on-site are available at Home Away from Home - Waitaki Lakes Apartment A5 free of charge.

The unit contained everything from Nespresso machine and cooking basics to extra heaters. Everything you would need kitchen wise was there. The key pad was easy to use. The unit had plenty of space.

    We lived in Omarama approximately 30 years ago.

    We lived in Omarama approximately 30 years ago. It was lovely to see the progress in the town. There is plenty of places to eat out and all of them offer a good range of food, with friendly efficient staff.

    Often overlooked as a passing point to more exotic destination, this little stop over town has a few worthy attractions; the Clay Cliffs, the Ahuriri River, the Hot tub and the Glider rides etc. It is also near Twizel and Lake Ohau too.

    Great little settlement - the Clay Cliffs were spectacular and a definite must-see. The Hot Tubs were so lovely afterwards - very private and in a peaceful outdoor setting. Absolutely loved them. Had a meal at the local pub which was also very good.

    There are two places to eat in the village.

    There are two places to eat in the village. A hotel which caters for tour parties. The bufet looked average. The ala carte menue, which looks interesting is not available every night (barman said). It was available when I was there, but the staff seamed very reluctant to offer it. The steak was limp (looked like it had been cooked in a sous vide, but not flash fried at a high enough temperature) and everything was way, way over salted!!! I was Would not recomend it. The pub was lovely, good food, great staff and welcoming. Would recomend it.

    It was a spur of the moment booking as we had a problem with our car. Great hotel for overnight or several days. Friendly helpful staff, clean rooms if a bit "tired". Arrived late and left early so didn't eat on the premises.

    A pleasant, quiet place to get away from the 'madding crowd'! I love the scenery and climate there and the locals we met were friendly and helpful. I recommend The Pink Glider for a meal as well as the kebab truck on the highway. Both have super staff and good food. Omarama provides a really pleasant holiday get away.
