Loved the heated indoor pool. Staff were fantastic. Neighbouring guests using picnic tables quite loud as tables were just outside our window. This also impacted on privacy.

Great place to stay. The cabins are well equipped. The place is clean and the facilities are amazing. The only down point is the lack of shampoo/conditioner in the cabins. I asked in reception and was asked to buy one from the shops instead.

Pretty good for what you pay

My check-in was great, a young lady looked to be quite happy with her job (that or she was new) and was very friendly. Check-in was quick with all the explanations about where to park and all. Great if you're looking for something on a budget, comfortable and no more than a 10 minute walk to the beach. We stayed at the low end of accommodation availability and we were more than happy so the higher end ones will be even better. We still had air con even though the low end cabins were advertised as ceiling fans (air con cabins were $80 more but had their own parking spots) so we were quite happy to have air con. Staff were friendly, check in was quick and efficient, checkout was even quicker. We'll be back for sure. The only thing is there are no shops close by except for the Towradgie pub which in and of itself is a great place to eat right across the road, otherwise it's in your car to go anywhere even for shopping or takeaway, but no more than a 5-10 minute drive.

There was one staff member who was extremely rude over the phone, sounded like she couldn't keep up with busy periods. the others I spoke with were lovely. The air con was leaking brown stuff onto our pillow and bed soI let the staff know but nothing was done about it while I was there for the 5 nights. Expensive prices for what you get.
