Really irritating not having a car space & the resort having limited parking. Trying to find street parking especially at night being a single female with a young child, not the safest & I was not aware of this,

Hi Kylie,Thank you for your feedback. On the Wotif website when you were booking online I refer you to the part of the booking where it mentions Parking & Public Transport and it states that there is self parking on site and limited onsite parking when you book a motel room.We do have dedicated parking available for all other apartments and if you asked at reception, we may have been able to give you a spare underground parking if one was available.

Loved most things about the property. The only thing I found slightly annoying was that I could hear the residents in the next room playing their radio/ tv through the wall in the back bedroom which kept me awake

Clean and tidy with friendly staff. We booked on the day as our original accommodation was a nightmare that we abandoned. We are so happy to have been able to enjoy our holiday at the Watermark. It was spotlessly clean and thankfully the pool was heated to a cosy temperature. It was safe for our 1 year old to crawl around and play. We will definitely go back
