I had a wonderful time at this resort, surrounded by beautiful bush and water views. The peaceful location was perfect for relaxation, but I was slightly let down by the dining options. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, although mine lacked natural light. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with great amenities.

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, tucked away just outside a busy beachside town. The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered a lovely view of the surrounding nature, making for a tranquil escape. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, and while the dining options were limited during our stay, the breakfast we had was quite good. Overall, it felt like great value for money, but finding the place initially was a bit challenging.

The resort offers a beautiful experience by the lake with serene surroundings and wildlife. The cabin we stayed in was well-equipped and very comfortable, perfect for relaxation. Watching kangaroos in the morning was a highlight. However, I do wish we had stayed longer than one night to fully enjoy the area and all it has to offer.

My stay here had its ups and downs. The location was tranquil and beautiful, nestled by a lake with a lovely atmosphere. The staff seemed genuinely welcoming, and the suite we stayed in was spacious and immaculate. However, the hot water issue was a major inconvenience, which I hope gets resolved soon. Overall, it's a nice spot, but the hot water situation certainly needs addressing.
