Good location and having the pedestrian access gate to the beach however upon returing to the park our code didnt work and we were locked out. Cabin itself was good for a family of four but we were overwhelmed by the smell of mildew. Not deterrents for a future stay but just things worth mentioning.

The cabin was clean, well appointed, great location. However, The water pipes banged loudly every time someone turned on a tap in our cabin or next door. It was raining and as the Down pipes drain straight onto the ground there were deep puddles everywhere. A fish flipper would enable us to turn our fried eggs. I would return for another stay but would take earplugs in case the pipes are still banging.

Much cheaper than other places, but the cabins are older, windows don't seal properly so it was quite breezy inside. Bed was awful, the mattress was caved in. Kids enjoyed riding bikes around the park and the water slide, but a bit disappointing there wasn't a playground or park area.

Walls in cabin paper thin, could hear people next to us. Being woken up by people going up and down the stairs before 6am every morning wasn’t the best start to the day. Cabin near the beach walk across the road was great. Cafe at the beach was amazing and the food ant the bowling club.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The cabin was old and tired. The windows didn’t close properly and the whirlybird on the roof made a loud noise all through the night that you could hear in the upstairs bedroom. The pipes banged every time you used the taps, shower or toilet which was very inconvenient at night when the attached cabin used these. The walls were paper thin and you could hear what was happening in the attached cabin all night long. When I brought this to the attention of the park it was made out to not be a problem. No attempt to make things right. Do not recommend.

Always a lovely stay, fantastic for kids, lovely staff, the rooms are clean, the kitchen has the necessities, the facilities give hours of fun for kids. In summer there's a cafe cart, the local cafes and clubs and pubs are fantastic. Bowling club in walking distance. We've been before and will go again. Ocean cabins have views and ocean sounds, amazing. 8 mins drive from the Entrance.

The patrolled beach is a two minute walk away. Our kids loved the water park and pool. We did not like the state of the cabin. The ceiling fans did not work. There is only one small air conditioner in the double story room. This meant the bedrooms were very hot. There was mould in the air conditioner.
