I was warmly welcomed by reception staff, first point of contact. It was a peaceful stay. Just the pod machine and bar fridge was leaking water but not a bother, I advised via email and an easy fix for maintanence. The whole resort needs upgrading to put in that wow factor. Lovely stay none the less and my room was clean just a little dusty. Worth a little care and loving touch, this place is more than ideal. Restaurant staff were so warm and friendly, was looked after & spoilt. You pay for amazing customer service, so well worth it :) Overall I really enjoyed my stay.

Everything was spotless. Felt like a luxurious break especially because we were there during a stormy weekend…. Staff are so lovely, the food at the restaurant was very nice, the bed was the most comfy cloud I’ve ever slept on. The amenities were brilliant. We are looking for an excuse to go back and check it out in good weather. The pools are so gorgeous we swam in the rain. Such a nice place. I RECOMMEND!!

Lovely villa opposite the golf course, nice and quiet away from the noisy pool area. Kitchen was good and foxtel on tv. We were able to chrome cast Netflix to the tv which was great for the teens. Aircon worked great but water was dripping on the deck from the unit. Check-in was delayed by 2 hours due to being understaffed with the cleaning but they gave us a breakfast next day which was a good compensation. Chef made a lovely omelette and the buffet was good. Pizzas were excellent!

The showers need to be replaced as there was water only trickling out and at the wall connection water spraying from seal in both bathrooms. The back patio was very untidy with old pot plants, overgrown plants and chairs all around. Breakfast was not great. We were there at 8am with only a few other tables and there was no bacon or hash browns for at least 20 minutes. Staff were very polite and the view was lovely. 3 bed villa was well appointed and comfortable.
