The front desk staff are hit and miss some are so friendly and helpful some not so much! Website says on thing I.e go book into things at front desk you go there and they send you to an iPad. Our room - main bed had no bedside table on one side. Second bedroom the cupboard doesn’t even open. Bathroom is so old and the taps have water scale built up the vanity has chunks missing and been knocked out, the shower is a shower and bath and just old and again not cleaned that great. Kids beds don’t get made they put a bottom sheet on and a folded blanket and a folded top sheet for you to do it yourself, I thought that was super strange. Buffet breakfast is abit silly we enquired before we even got there about paying for it but we wouldn’t be able to attend on a day (2 days before we left) they said they can cancel our check out day buffet booking and we’re not flexible AT ALL! In the end it worked out better for $10 extra we went to mantra for a hot buffet instead. Over all there has to be stricter rules regarding the inside kids play area, 10-12 year olds running up and down pushing younger kids while the parents just sat drinking in penguins restaurant not giving a care in the world. The vending machine prices were next level $4 for a can of Sunkist is outrageous. The food is pretty average for how much you are paying for it. The biggest peeve is the surcharges when you have no other way to pay ONLY card but get whacked every single time with a surcharge!

Great waterpark facilities and outside activities for the kids but otherwise that’s where it stops. Our room was not serviced in 3 days, food was excessively expensive. paying $3 for sauce in a 20ml fold in half squeeze pack is unconscionable. Dinner times is utter chaos and app to order crashes at peak times making it impossible to order food. Probably is tired and very unkept/dirty. Ice skating roof covered in black mould. Ice skates old, worn, rusted and unsafe.

Definitely a family resort! Lots to do I didn’t need to leave. Only fault I can make is in the games room has a smell. 10/10 otherwise
