It was ok

Rooms are a great size. Such a bonus to be able to spread our suitcases out on the floor. The staff were very polite but i must admit not all of them looked very happy, it was hard to spot a smile, maybe it's because its the end of the session and done of them are a bit tired. The pool was lovely with pool towels supplied. We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was superb, I'd definitely recommend this.

The outdoor areas of the hotel are looking run down. It’s a shame that security cannot be guaranteed in the car park. We had a boat and were advised to remove most of our contents of value. It is timely that consideration be given to an option for safe storage of items like boats overnight etc. The restaurant service was ok, however the food was lovely, as it was when we stayed in late April 2025. Check in was friendly and helpful.

The property is older and could do with a refurb There aren’t many options for lunch and dinner in the area and the restaurant and bar is very understaffed but all staff were lovely despite this. Wanted to eat lunch poolside and were told this wasn’t allowed - when the menu is basic burgers this seems bizarre Kakadu is incredible with lots to do
