Superior Cabin
We decided to return after having an amazing stay at one of the powered sites with a stunning lake view in our RV. This time, we stayed in one of their cabins, still with the same breathtaking view. Driftaway’s location is truly a highlight, offering beautiful sunrises and sunsets, along with panoramic views of The Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu. It's easily accessible by car or public transport, just a 10-minute walk from the Bus Terminus, and conveniently close to the airport and The Remarkables Park shopping area. The facilities, including the communal kitchen, shared spaces, self-service laundry, and hot tub, were all impeccably clean and well-maintained. Watching the sunset from the hot tub was definitely the highlight of our stay. The staff were also friendly and helpful throughout. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The wife and I had a welcoming stay at the Driftaway Holiday Park. Views and facilities were out of this world. With special thanks to Maddie who was warm and welcoming and happy to chat with us. After a stressful travel day she offered us thoughtful advice and kind words may she and the rest of The Driftaway staff have a Merry Christmas.

By far the most modern camp site on our whole trip through New Zealand. [Imported from Google Reviews]
Deluxe 1 Bedroom Villa
By far the most modern camp site on our whole trip through New Zealand. Everything is super modern and new, there's a fantastic kitchen with an outside terrace and BBQ with a lake view. Staff is super helpful, friendly and arranged for a camping spot close to the main building when I came in with an injured knee (the wheelchair accessible bathroom is also really nice and handy, btw). Has all other amenities as well, fantastic place!

Premium Lake View Powered Sites
We booked a lake view powered site and had the most amazing view for our time here. There was also a gate where you could easily get to the lake front and walk along it. The staff were nice and checking in and out was easy. The view from the kitchen area was incredible too - if you don’t get a lake view site definitely head up there for your meals. Facilities were really good and clean. Will definitely be back.

Premium Lake View Powered Sites
Arguably the nicest campsite view we had in our whole stay in NZ! The facilities are modern, well maintained and clean. Admittedly,the campervan spaces are packed fairly tightly together, so it’s not the most private and spacious of holiday parks. But it is a great place to stay when in Queenstown.

Premium Lake View Powered Sites
We stayed 1 night at Driftaway Queenstown for NZD $122.30 on a Powered Site with a Lakeview and it easily became our favourite holiday park of the entire trip. Opened in 2022, Driftaway feels fresh, modern and thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience. The moment we arrived, we were greeted by stunning views of Lake Wakatipu with the Remarkables mountain range framing the background — absolutely breathtaking! The facilities here are top-notch. The toilets and showers are spotless, with free hot showers (no coins needed), which is a big plus for campers. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped and there’s even a BBQ area perfect for an evening meal while enjoying the sunset over the lake. Laundry facilities are available too, making it easy for travelers to refresh during longer trips. Families will love the kangaroo jumper and large open spaces, making it a fun and relaxing place for everyone. Everything around the park is modern, clean and well-maintained, you can really tell this place was built with guests’ comfort in mind. We’ve stayed at many holiday parks across New Zealand but Driftaway Queenstown truly stands out for its cleanliness, layout and incredible views. It’s only a short drive from Queenstown’s town centre, making it convenient yet peaceful, away from the crowds. Definitely one of the best holiday parks we’ve stayed at — clean, scenic and family-friendly. We’ll definitely be coming back next time!
