While the room was adequate, had supplied minimum in the way of sugar and milk. The biggest downer was the Sola restaurant. No table service, the floor was dirty with food scraps, and they got the food order wrong and took over 40 minutes to be served.

Even though the property is old, it still presents pretty well. They need to add another pool so you can separate the kids from the adults. Adult pool and family pool. No seats available, couldn't access spa because of the kids and 2 days without towels. Not good enough for a resort. Also, the food is well below par, 3 out of 10. Food is served cold with little taste. If it was just a restaurant, it would go broke.

Perfect family place to stay. Throughly enjoyed using the facilities - kayaking, the catamaran and the pool. There are also activities scheduled that the kids can do. We would definitely like to return for a longer stay (we did just a night). The property itself is surrounded by bushland and kangaroos everywhere. Feels very special. The room itself is ok. Not amazing, but clean and does the job. Staying here is more for what you can do and the beautiful surrounds than the room. Breakfast was great.
