I had a lovely stay at the resort, enjoying the quiet atmosphere just a short walk from the beach and the wildlife sanctuary. The apartment was spacious, modern, and very clean, which made our family trip comfortable. The only downside was the noise from aircraft overhead since it's near the airport. Overall, it was reasonably priced and a great value for a relaxing getaway.

We had a wonderful stay over the Australia Day long weekend at this family-friendly resort. The apartment was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we needed.
