We’ll be back very soon, it’s become our favourite getaway🫶🏽
Pros:

Just about everything…..
It’s the perfect place for adults, children and was also appropriate & comfortable for a NDIS participant.
Staff & ammenities were amazing and the food & drinks at the cafe were yummy (not open all day every day though)

Cons:

Not really about the resort but having to pay for the ferry every time was a bit annoying

Oh actually…. The bunk room didn’t have a fan & it was quite warm but not a deal breaker

A clean beautiful resort near the beach.
Pros:

It was clean and close to the beach. A good value for the space.

Cons:

We couldn’t find the hours for pool openings. A staff member closed to the pool at 8pm. It would have been nice if it was open a bit later.
