The hotel is great - gardens well maintained - staff very pleasant and helpful - housekeeping needs attention : bed top sheet well done, bottom sheet not even streched, cups and glasses not cleaned, coffee not replaced, floor not vacc or mopped on 3 days stay, towels not replaced when required. Housekeeper needs a better control.

Really disappointing given the expense
On the first night it took me 30 minutes to get through to in room dining.
Then I was advised there was no standard beers available.
The food that was delivered was terrible.
The room is tired and does not accommodate any USB fittings.
I found hair in the bathtub the following morning.

Perfect family place to stay. Throughly enjoyed using the facilities - kayaking, the catamaran and the pool. There are also activities scheduled that the kids can do. We would definitely like to return for a longer stay (we did just a night). The property itself is surrounded by bushland and kangaroos everywhere. Feels very special. The room itself is ok. Not amazing, but clean and does the job. Staying here is more for what you can do and the beautiful surrounds than the room. Breakfast was great.

Great place to relax and enjoy!
We had everything we needed during our 3 night midweek stay.
The room was set up well and bed was comfortable.
We had enjoyed the walks and wildlife, great food, especially the buffet breakfast with the best coffee from Milano machines. The service was very friendly and helpful. Also nice water activities, like fish feeding and sailing.
