We enjoyed our stay. One piece of advice- if you take your car, it is a super long walk to the actual resort from the northern carpark. We were lucky that we met a staff member called Normie that helped us out but others werent so lucky. I also had to beg reception to help me get back to my car with luggage, rain, a tired 7 year old and an injured wrist, as they only provide luggage transport if you are coming on the passenger ferry. Overall though, there is so much to do and a fair few dining options that cater for fussy kids. We did enjoy our stay and would come back.

Liked: Cleanliness
Amazing location! A few umbrellas or shade netting on the beach (say 20) with some beach chairs, perhaps a beach bar would enhance the experience. Landscaping could be updated. The netting at the beach looks tacky, other options could perhaps be explored. Fire and Stone is disappointing with half the menu not available. The sunset deck is unavailable to visitors for sundowners when functions are on. Milk in the room fridge was past due date.
