There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station.

My extended family stayed for a week at the Bond Estate over the Christmas 2023 period and we had the most marvellous, wonderful stay imaginable, My daughter got married a few miles away and we used the place a venue to get ready and have photographs taken; it was magical. Everything was perfect, from the fantastic, exotic swimming pool and jacuzzi to the outstanding full-on Bar-B-Que. The kitchen was incredibly well appointed and the coffee machine was a real luxury. The place was so well equipped that we comfortably hosted her new in-laws for a full on good, old fashioned English Christmas Dinner. The GIANT projector screen and selection of movies was an absolute delight, (Love Actually on Christmas day has never looked so good), the Tennis court was brand new and saw many a hotly contested rally. (You CAN be serious !!) Tracy (the facility manager) was always available; discreet yet accommodating in every way and a real plus for the premises. (Shout out for Shaun and Rhys the resident friendly Shoats, (Google it ! )) If you are thinking of staying on the outskirts of Christchurch and you want a little luxury in your life then you need look no further than the Bond Estate... we will CERTAINLY be returning.

At Tasman Holiday Parks - Christchurch, you can spend the day swimming in the indoor pool, relaxing in the hot tub or playing games in the games room. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.

Located in the Canterbury Region, Tasman Holiday Parks - Christchurch is 14 minutes' drive from the centre of Christchurch and 21 minutes' drive from Christchurch International Airport.

We just stay here for 4-5 hours before heading to airport at 3.00 a.m. For short stay it is comfortable and the check in procedure is easy (mailbox). however it is quite hard for us to find the rooms since there is no road sign or rooms numbers sign in each road so it took us for a while to locate all 3 houses that we booked since the number of the house can't be seen clearly since we arrive at night. the rest is superb

Looking for a hotel with pools?

‘Does it have a pool?’ is arguably one of the most common questions when booking a stay in any location. These hotels offer a great way to keep active during your holiday without having to hit the gym. Indoor pools allow you to practice your backstroke come rain or shine, whereas outdoor options allow you to relax on a sun lounger after swimming a few lengths.

    Warm welcome from reception team. Compact but adequate accommodation for an overnight stay- double bed in one room with kitchenette and small dining table, 4 bunks in separate room with basic ensuite. Very clean. Well maintained. Bed comfort OK. Small indoor swimming pool with slide, sadly the enjoyment of which was influenced by other park guests which made it dangerous for our kids to use for very long. Jumping pillow and small kids play areas incl games and TV room. Ambient noise not too bad considering type of accommodation.
