Our Story.
Located in the beautiful South Island on Bank’s Peninsula, our Akaroa holiday park is ideally positioned only 85km from Christchurch and the international airport.Akaroa is nestled in the crater of an extinct volcano in Canterbury’s Banks Peninsula. It is historically unique in being the only attempted French settlement in New Zealand and continues to retain an authentic French atmosphere. The spectacular views, perfect location, a variety of facilities and accommodation types, make Akaroa TOP 10 a holiday park not to miss. From our Akaroa holiday park’s units, cabins and majority of the campervan, caravan and tent sites, there are spectacular views of the harbor. Akaroa TOP 10 Holiday Park includes a full range of facilities including a swimming pool.Located within walking distance of the French inspired settlement and away from traffic, our Akaroa accommodation is the ideal place for an affordable, quiet escape.
