Lovely setting in a well laid out caravan park.

Cabin very comfortable and well equipped. Having an ensuite as well as a general bathroom was fantastic.

What could be improved: The trees which cover the car space of cabin 35, drops dreadful berries that stick to the duco of the car, hundreds of them! we had to park the car in a vacant campsite as it took a lot of work to get them of our new car after our first night. A carport for these cabins would remedy the problem.

Tony from Australia (January 11, 2025)

8/10

What could be improved: Absolutely no wi fi

You'd expect in 2025 that would be an absolute minimum.... this needs to be fixed as my own phone provider had a poor signal on my phone I couldn't even hotspot to devices.
I am not one to give negative reviews But the Wi-Fi thing was definitely a big disappointment

Neibi from Australia (January 9, 2025)

9/10

Lovely spot, clean and comfortable. Very busy caravan park but also very quiet at night so we slept well.

What could be improved: The splash bucket was on away for repairs with the manufacturer

Lyndall from Australia (December 5, 2024)

9/10

Great location to swim in lagoon. Enjoyed the pool and facilities. Wonderful friendly staff

What could be improved: Cabin 31 could use a upgrade. No blind or curtains in kitchen looked into other cabins so no privacy. Daddy long leg spiders all through cabin in every corner. Cabin was great size but needs update.

Christine from Australia (November 11, 2024)

8/10

Location within the park was excellent, away from the main areas - private and peaceful.
Great proximity to the water, beach and township.
