I arrived to check in at. 2.15 on the Saturday of a busy long weekend, but because of the turnover of units and limited cleaning staff, I could get into my unit till 3.15. The keys to the unit were faulty. Difficult to lock I would not stay at this accommodation again. Similar accommodation close by, and where I have stated many times is superior.

Lovely place. Such a pleasant location with lovely people. Great access to everything we required, shops for supplies, motorcycle dealerships for a couple of essential parts. Most of all, a great starting point for a day journey along the great ocean road. We would love to spend more time here, unfortunately work commitments are calling us.

We had a fantastic time staying at the holiday park from Tuesday 24/12/2024 to Thursday 26/12/2024 during the Christmas period. The overall experience was amazing, and it was a great place for family gatherings. However, I did have a couple of concerns. I believe I booked a room near the pool, but we were assigned a different one. Additionally, the cleanliness of our room was disappointing—the floor was quite dirty, and we had to wear shoes to avoid getting our feet dirty. My little one was running around and i noticed how dirty her feet were. Another downside was the early closing times for the swimming pool and playground. After our family outings, the kids were eager to enjoy those amenities, but they were already closed by the time we returned. Despite these issues, I would still recommend the holiday park for family gatherings. The positive aspects of our stay definitely outweighed the negatives!
