Very friendly and accommodating staff, food just the right portion (not feeling too full, not left feeling like there wasn't enough). Absolutely breathtaking view and a great escape for a romantic meal or even to bring kids along. Will definitely revisit if the opportunity presents itself.

Grade A!!! We loved the food and service was excellent. Table for 4 (2 adults and 2 children) Reasonable prices and great atmosphere. Not sure why the bad reviews we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Highly recommend Lamb Two Ways and NZ Angus Tenderloin! The meats were well cooked and tasted awesome! The dessert were amazing as well. Homemade Baked Cheesecake was epic, which was the best and a must-have! Vanila Cream Brulee with Biscotti was delicious too. Overall, it was a lovely experience dining here! Wonderful food, great service and beautiful sea view just outside the restaurant.

Popped in for lunch and dinner while staying here. Staff are kind and patient while we made mistakes and wondered where to sit. Daily quiet while here. Food was of good quality and the servings were enough if not plentiful. Had vegetarian options. Chocolate mousse was fantastic.

The restaurant has a really good view, I think it's good for family gathering

Castaways, located near land’s end deep past Waiuku. Decided to pop in here (using an entertainment voucher) during a house-sit in Waiuku and the food was amazing. The salmon was very well done, lightly cooked so it wasn’t dry all. The lamb shank was incredibly deliciously seasoned and cooked the perfection. The pecan dessert was quite unique, made into a meatball style.

The food was really high quality and the service even better. A side of potatoes was a good choice as the mains were mostly just the meat with very little vegetables. Starter chowder was fresh, hot and delicious. Slightly overpriced but appropriate for the location and quality. Would recommend using an Entertainment Voucher to make it an all round perfect evening.

It has an excellent view of the sea and sunset over the ocean. You can sit inside or outside have drinks. Price isn't costly like most of us would expect due to its locations. Toilets are clean; staff are friendly and overall we always have a good experience.

We were driving from Auckland to Rotorua and wanted to visit a black sand beach. We detoured to Karioitahi Beach and spent an hour on that magnificent beach. Afterwards, we were famished and drove up the hill to Castaways Resort. Lunch in the restaurant was just what we needed. The waitress was very attentive. The chef fixed a special pizza for the girls and a to order burger for our daughter. My wife even commented that the decor in the restroom coordinated with the outdoors. The restaurant also has a great view of that magical beach. Gary Hyde is the General Manager of the Castaways Resort and was a great help with our visit. He even dropped in during our lunch to greet us. We’ll be back on our next trip to New Zealand.
