Leading Trans Tasman holiday park operator, Tasman Holiday Parks, has completed a significant $8 million investment program for its Papamoa Park just in time for the festive season. The grand reveal on December 14, 2023, will showcase six two-bedroom beach-front villas overlooking Papamoa Beach and eight luxurious poolside units with breathtaking views of a new 25-meter resort-style swimming pool.

In collaboration with the local iwi, Nga Potiki, Tasman Holiday Parks has not only designed the pool but also incorporated Māori storytelling elements to embrace the natural environment. David Aflallo, General Manager of Tasman Holiday Parks New Zealand, emphasized the company's commitment to elevating New Zealand's tourism market and working closely with the iwi to create a product true to its heritage.

The Papamoa Holiday Park, with its new additions, represents a milestone for Tasman Holiday Parks, introducing an unprecedented product to the New Zealand tourism market. The park combines luxury and cultural integration to redefine holiday park experiences. The recent partnership with Nga Potiki is reflected in updated signage featuring both te reo Māori and English.

The completion of the poolside units and the resort-style swimming pool will be marked by an exclusive VIP launch event on December 14. Tasman Holiday Parks, led by CEO Nikki Milne, strategically invested in its holiday park assets over the past 24 months, demonstrating a commitment to delivering an enhanced product offering amid the resurgence of domestic and international tourism post-COVID.

Nikki Milne expressed confidence in the enduring strength of the New Zealand tourism market and pride in delivering high-end facilities to a new generation of holiday park-goers. The upgraded facilities at Papamoa Park aim to provide visitors with an immersive experience, blending modern luxury with the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.
