We stayed for one night, the staff were very accommodating as I had to increase the number of people staying. The room was clean and tidy and the separate toilet/shower room looked fresh and newly renovated. The staff were able to provide gluten free meals and the food and drink was also really good. Would recommend as conveniently located and the service and accommodation was very good. Thanks again.

Beautiful and relaxing, staff were all so friendly. Convenience of dining in if you wish, a relaxed bar. We went at peak summer so an extra fan/s would have been a bonus. A few steps to tackle to take your gear up. Refreshing pool was fantastic.

The room was not cleaned properly with sand, dust and rubbish under the beds and the lounge. Very limited cooking facilities in the room which is described as "two bedroom". In fact it is a single bedroom with the sitting area converted to a bedroom. The "camp kitchen was no more than a barbecue with a sink. Overall very expensive for second rate facilities. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

The bungalow was dusty. The shower is a shocker it does not drain properly you are standing in 20 mil of water all the time and the spray goes on the floor very dangerous. And to finish off I pulled the top sheet on the double bed back and there was all black pebbles on the white sheets that looked like a cockroach had been living there. Never again. Errol

Parking away from cabins was not ideal as our cabin was one of the furthest away from the car park. A kitchenette setup would be ideal.

Nice well kept property. Clean Large rooms. Excellent owners and staff. Property lacks AC but the island cools of after 10.00 pm so not a big deal. I would suggest to the owners to lock the pool area during restricted hours as some guests decided to use the pool late at night disturbing other guests with the noise they made.

Mould throughout the bathroom, shower and toilet. Thick layer of dirt and dust under the beds and refrigerator which we had to move so that the curtains would stay shut so that you couldn’t see into our room. Non smoking, yet the smoking area is directly outside the window to our room. Windows could be opened from outside the room. Pictures of this room on the current listing reflect the rooms much better than on the listing when we booked over 6 months ago. We were very unpleasantly surprised by the detached bathroom across and down the hallway, however this is better described in the current listing. Staff on check in were lovely. Decking between pool and rooms need repair as some are missing and many are damaged.

pleasant stay, got its bistro and small souvenir shops with food and drinks, friendly staff members, food was alright, place can be sandy overall sometimes as people bring it in but they follow strict rules of having clothing on when entering the restaurant premises. Also good location so not too far from Eli Creek
