We had a very pleasant stay at the holiday park. It's in a lovely location where you can walk around in the bush or by mangroves across the road. It was easy to drive into the main area in Russell and beaches nearby approx. 5-10 min by car. We made use of the kitchen facilities in the cabin also.

This property is in a great area however, unfortunately needs a huge renovation. Rooms had no hot water, TV did not work and amenities like washer and dryer and pool were all broken down. The room had cockroaches on the wall and bed was broken. Management tried their best to accommodate guests given the circumstances and were friendly though the property needs major investment to continue.

Lots to keep the kids entertained between trips to town and the beach. Fairly priced and clean and tidy facilities. We stayed in a lodge cabin which was very close to the kitchen, bathrooms, picnic area, pool and playground. I loved the location of our cabin. My family of 6 will definitely visit this holiday park again.
