About this property

Effort Unit Waitanic Park Waitomo Woodlyn Park

The Endeavour Unit is located along the side of the Waitanic Ship. This ship was a World War II Petrol Boat that was recovered from Australia and took 2 years to refurbish. This multi-deck unit can sleep up to 2 people. It consists of 2 deck levels with the living/dining room with kitchenette located on the top deck alongside a queen bed.
Below in the hull, there is the bathroom featuring a shower and toilet.

There is also a shared bbq for all guests use in the picnic area next to the Waitanic. This unit is suitable for people who can handle stairs and is not recommended for elderly or people with physical limitations.

Guests often ask how it was relocated on dry land. The owner often replies in jest that it was left there after the Great Flood when the animals departed the Ark 2 by 2!
