We have stayed at this property numerous times & have enjoyed it due to parking, ease of navigation & close proximity to the CBD & cullen bay dining options. Also casino is a walkable distance as is the mindl markets. The property is unfortunately showing its age & the unit we had, even thought it had an awesome marina view, just needed some TLC. Couldn’t fault the staff, not their willingness to help (via directions, help within the facility & overall friendliness).

Our stay at Cullen Bay Resort was both enjoyable and relaxing. It is located in an area which is convenient for dining, public transport and walking tracks. The only downside was the firmness of the bed in our apartment. Unfortunately, it is difficult to provide a bed that suits everyone’s tastes.
