The place is awesome, room all nice, nothing broken, all modern, bed was amazing and I am really fussy on beds. Spa bath very nice and worked correctly.
Only annoying thing was this Mac360 boat parked in our spot. Reception lady said it would be moved, but over 2 nights the boat never moved. We parked in someone elses spot, but overall its only a minor thing...
The room as stated was Amazing. And theres a pool and a garden and creek. Very nice stay overall.

The rooms were huge, kids especially loved having their a second floor. Kay and Robin were super knowledgeable and friendly. They also held our daughters' forgotten water bottle until we were able to pass back through a few days later, which meant the world to her.

I had a 1 bedroom unit with a jet spa bath. I absolutely loved it! It was spacious, clean, comfortable beds, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and all the amenities that are needed. Tv in lounge and bedroom. It is everything that is advertised and couldn’t have asked for better accommodation. The hosts and owners are very helpful, accommodating, kind and respectful. Efficient check in and check out. What more could we ask for!
