Lovely room however the bed was too hard for my liking. Lifts would be handy as there were a lot of stairs to climb especially once the pool area was locked as our room was on the far side of the pool which added multiple flights of stairs to get there. Parking was awful with nowhere near enough Carpark to accomodate the number of rooms. We were unfortunately placed in a room that could have been converted to a family suite and the people in the other part of the room were very loud and inconsiderate at 5am when leaving their room. While Staff were friendly and welcoming and had no control over this, it has still put us off returning.

After booking we were told the only restaurant was closed. I emailed and asked for other local options or a discount on the pizza (the only thing available) - got no response. It was too late we were coming. We then paid $50 for two reheated frozen pizzas. They were terrible. Horribly overpriced for what the place is. Will not be back

All outdoor facilities were well maintained. We enjoyed the relaxed vibe. Great pool and play area for kids and we liked that we could get lunch, snacks and drinks around pool area. Food at restaurant was lovely too. Resort rooms and restaurant and bar a bit outdated but overall the rooms were comfy and spacious and the beauty of the property is you don’t have to leave once you arrive. We will definitely go back. Good value for money.

Lovely location just north of town. Friendly and informative staff and clean room (1 bedroom apartment). Restaurant food and service was excellent. Had the best Pina Colada mocktail I’ve ever had! On the down side…undercover parking was very limited. We had quite a long walk from the muddy, outside parking area to our room. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

Our room was dated. Both TV's were very dated and tiny. No channel 7 reception at all. They were not smart and had no ability to stream any provider. The bathroom had a small step between the basin area and the bathroom. Consider it to be a hazard, particularly at night. The bath should be replaced with a proper shower. However the restaurant and bar service and food were excellent.

The resort itself was really lovely and we enjoyed our stay. We were in the terraces and the parking was absolutely terrible. We had to park ages away and walk all bags up to the room up a steep hill and multiple stairs. It seems to be the larger building in the other side of the late had heaps of parking and would be more accessible

This property is old and very tired although the room was clean and bed comfortable. Set on beautiful grounds but unfortunately I could not see it because I was looking into a brick wall. The foyer area and walkways are covered with dated terracotta tiles, not a very inviting first impression. No deadlock or chains on the room doors. Restaurant food was good and staff were very friendly. No daily house keeping service I stayed for 2 nights and would not stay there again

This is a decent one night stopover. Would not book for a longer holiday. The property is “tired”. All updates and maintenance have been deferred. It’s clean. The restaurant was completely self service despite appearing like a regular restaurant. My partners steak was decent. My pasta was bland.

The grounds are beautiful and staff are lovely and it is clean but it is a very outdated facility with popcorn ceilings, aged fit-outs and basic room amenities. Our toilet broke on the first flush but staff were great in fixing it. Stated as 4 star but that would have been in the 90’s.
