8/10 Very good

Good location, fantastic amenities, the pool and water park are too notch, the beach and national park are stunning. The staff were friendly and hospitable. The glamping tents are a fantastic thing. I will be back, hopefully for longer next time.

The tent feel didn't compromise comfort.
Anthony, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property would be good as a destination park ie a week or so stay. For our purpose it turned out to be a long way from Ballina. The bathroom shower was in desperate need of a good clean or regrout as it was very mouldy. Overall though, the cabin was good and we enjoyed our stay

One of the best stays in Australia

One of the best stays! The tents are beautiful and the shared facilities are very clean and tidy. Would recommend and stay again! You hear the sea in the night and have just a calm and relaxing stay.

Sin Man Miu, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Paradise for young families

Great location for a young family getaway. Very close to a pristine beach, but the waterpark/pool area was even more appealing to the kids. Quiet (mostly) and pet friendly for those travelling with their furry friend. The plumbed gas Weber BBQ was ideal for an evening meal. Would recommend for couples with children or pets. Baby boomers might find it rather noisy and irritating.
Peter, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfy and safe. The problem was the night noise from neighbors’s cabin. They put an open air cinema with high volume. It was impossible even to talk or watch TV on my place. My small grandson couldn’t sleep.
Dilze, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The glamping tents were fabulous. Great experience recommend the resort.
