Guest reviews for Couran Cove Island Resort
It was a lovely getaway and so relaxing. I have heard there is going to be some much needed funds spent on its upkeep, which should see it become even more popular. You could not fault the staff for their service.

Great location, things to do is great! Needs a lot of maintenance on pathways and decks and rooms. Service is very slow.

Great location with stunning scenery. Dining options where limited with appalling service particularly around the pool area .prices where ridiculously expensive, and the resort was out of stock in most things like ice cream for kids, even running low/out of alcohol. Such a shame that the resort facilities where so badly run/stocked as couran cove is an amazing place - families travelling there need to be mindful of just how expensive it is and that it may
It be the best value family accommodation. our toilet flooded as did the shower, there where stains and dried blood on one of the blankets.

After being here many times as a day tripper only I have always wanted to stay for the weekend so what better weekend then Australia Day weekend. After reading many reviews some good some bad, yes they do get the little things wrong like closing the buffet at 8:30pm just after the fireworks were finished. But if you are a person who needs 5 star accommodation and treatment and a red carpet everywhere then this place isn’t for you. Our first room on the first night air conditioner didn’t work it was bearable but would have been nice if it was working properly but after a friendly approach to reception on 3 occasions they gave us another room so I was happy The matter was taken care of. We had some ants but nothing areogard didn’t sort. We had a great weekend and enjoyed our stay and will stay again. But again if you are a needy person then maybe look elsewhere.

Always love heading over to couran cove. Unfortunately new management taking over again which places resort in limbo. Still had a relaxing stay but services, and communication lacking which was dissapointing in school holidays. As they won't tell you before you arrive best to check what food outlets are open. Appears everything closes at 4pm accept main restaraunt until weekends. Pool side restaraunt, main resort cafe, surfclub, sunset bar all close at 4pm weeknights.

There were good and bad aspects of the resort. The sunset bar, pool and dining options were fantastic. The rainforest walk was beautiful. The resort is run down though.. board walks need replacing, playgrounds are old, eco cabins were tired and under maintained. The staff were not overly friendly or enthusiastic. I think a make over and a fresh lick of paint would make a big difference.
