Our checkin was lovely. The manager explained there was a wedding and to allow for noise. However she failed to let us know that the room we had made it feel like daytime with the lights off the car park. Further, the check out process was horrid. We checked out early (5.40am) and there was nothing to say how to check out early in place at the counter. I saw a lady in the office, I quietly knocked on the door and was met with quite a rude response. She was rude speaking with me and thereafter. I did point out that there was nothing to suggest what I should do in case of early check out. Such a bad way to end a nice evening.

Great location, grounds, pool, spa, room and friendly staff. However reception failed to ask us to for our car registration plates and said we should have prepaid for parking. Ended up having to paid $65 for 2 nights outside parking. Wagyu steak was dry and not tender and steak knives were not sharp. Only minor complaints really but spoiled what was otherwise a 5-star experience.

Our room had a strong smell of vomit and it was generally a bit tired. The lady on reception was excellent. Super friendly and helpful and sorted us a new room which unfortunately smelled of cigarette smoke but was tolerable. This property is definitely getting a bit dated and could do with a refresh but ok for the price and staff were excellent.

Lovely room

we stayed in a lovely suite overlooking the water. The suite has a lawn area around it and other hotel guests do walk around hotel and suite. So we kept the soft curtains closed for privacy which detracted from the views Can also be a bit noisy when there is music playing in venues opposite the hotel

Unfortunately this stay didn’t live up to our expectations from the pictures and cost for the stay. First room we were in the air conditioning didn’t work it was facing west so really hot, the duty manager at reception was lovely and moved us to a different room. Unfortunately second room wasn’t much better but didn’t want to seem difficult so didn’t say anything. The king bed was well used with large body dips in the mattress making it very uncomfortable and causing a very sore back over the 4 nights we stayed. The bathroom had no window and exhaust fan was broken causing mould on the ceiling and in the grout. A hole that looked like it had been punched in the door had been badly patched, the handle barely worked to open and close the door. There were stains in the carpet in the room that looked ‘interesting’. And on door frame into the room red stains like blood. Overall stay was average it’s definitely not worth the price tag. The pool area looked tired with some of the plastic seating broken but not removed. A heavier person could have hurt themself on it.

Good room, great pool, awesome location. Breakfast wasn't great, room service cuts off at 8:45, lacking on the mini bar in terms of food, only choclate bars (Woolworths a short walk) Basic bar, nothing great and extremely pricey. Pool area tables a little untidy and not cleaned regularly. Would stay there again without paying for breakfast.

We were upgraded to a Executive suite which was a lovely surprise and the suite was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However we thought it was penny pinching charging additional for parking. It would be better to have it all inclusive. Also the restaurant we would rate as 3.
