Hosts were easy to communicate with, out of hour instructions were easy to follow. Easy walk to the esplanade, good value for what our family needed (traveling for a sporting event). Had all the basics we needed for our stay.

What could be improved: Nothing I did not like. If I had to be picky, some units did not have cooking facilities. Other ones could have had better cookware and a few bowls would have helped. There's a fully functional kitchen on site but with a full camp you will have to wait.

Nice, clean accommodation.

Rowe from Australia (January 8, 2025)

Great cooking facilities. Beautiful park, well maintained. Friendly staff. Pool needs more attention and more activities /play area for kid's would be a bonus.

What could be improved: Nothing. Maybe more activities for kids.
