Excellent stay. Great for families and kids. The room was very clean and had great amenities. (Would’ve been great to have a coffee machine). Several pools and lots to do for the kids. Walking distance to the beach. The current light rail works was a bit annoying for getting in and out of the resort, but we didn’t hear any works from our room. Will be great once that is operating as it will be easy to get around Golf Coast.

Great resort for families !

Great resort for families. Splash zone, pools and amenities for families are ideal. We had kids aged 7 & 3 who LOVED the water slides and pool. With a supermarket and bottle shop around the corner this is a super location and great place to stay. Highly recommended! It is no frills so suggest BYO pool towels.

Plenty of activities for the kids throughout the day, buses and trams easily accessable to get to other areas/ theme parks. The rooms are self maintained, they come with a washing machine/dryer for your convenience. The metro is in close walking distance so you can buy the necessities for your stay.

This place was great for our family of 5. (Children 12, 9 & 5). We enjoyed the pools and facilities. The parking was ideal and the location was a 5 min walk to beach. It was annoying being on the 3rd floor (no elevator) but the view was nice. We would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time staying here and it was just as good as before. The kids had a blast, rooms were comfortable, stocked with what we needed and surprisingly quiet despite kids as neighbours. My kids enjoyed the many pool, tennis, basketball, mini golf and night time BBQ.The only hard bit we found last time and this time is the amount of stairs but not sure that can be helped. The staff at the Deck (im guessing mostly seasonal) weren't the nicest or accommodating this time around. Yes they're working on the tram lines out side the resort but we couldnt hear it and it didnt impact our stay; in fact, were excited for our next stay so we can use them!!

We loved almost everything about turtle beach! It had everything we needed for a family and made everything so easy! Shame about the light rail works but that can't be helped! Only two things were that the rooms were a bit dated (first world problems) and the couches weren't very comfortable, but aside from that. Loved it!!
