Excellent location! Incredible staff that go above and beyond and tons of activities everyday. Wish I could’ve stayed longer! Plus the cabins are really cool and clean - so is the shared bathroom!

Accommodation was good, well equipped and comfy. Unfortunately for us it was raining without pause for 2 days while we were there, so we didn't enjoy the island as planned. A good thing for the tent is that it can endure really big amounts of water. Water was everywhere except in the tent. It has even created a small lake around the tent base, but tents are on an elevated wooden base, so everything was ok.

This was a lovely little studio with fully equipped kitchenette. The patio had table/chairs and was a good place to watch the local birds. While the double bed was a little small for us, the couch was effectively a single bed and very comfortable. The location was close to both walking tracks and great restaurants. We had a very comfortable stay!

Loved the location. The bungalows were spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable. The room had everything we needed. The staff were lovely and friendly. The pool was great. It was a short walk to the beach and being able to hand feed the Rock wallabies was a special experience! They like carrots and Apple

The condition of the room was immaculate. The decor of the room was unique, although I'm not an 'alternatives' type of person. I could use the facilities of the resort even though the room was owned by an outside individual. I would stay there again next year at the drop of a hat. Ken Blanshard 17-21.5.2024

The room was really nice. We really enjoyed it. We were a family of 5 and the room was perfect for us. We were able to check in early which was really helpful. The resort was nice as well. The host was really fast at replying to any of our messages as well.

Very well quipped with pretty much everything we needed. It was clean with good water pressure in the shower. The apartment was very spacious with lots of room for luggage etc. The pool area was nicely kept and the water very warm. The local bus stopped a few minutes walk up the road. The port is a shortish walk away with a really good supermarket there. There is a small supermarket at the end of the road close to the resort but we found little we wanted there and preferred the supermarket opposite the ferry.

This resort is amazing. You find yourself situated in the middle of wildlife. I sawa wild Koala and wallebys right next to my hut. During the night the Park was very quiet (except the wildlife which was so fun). Common areas are well equiped and clean. Staff super nice. It was kinda hard to leave ;-)
