Nice little Bungalows which overlooked the water which is always a nice touch. However, for $430 a night things felt a little unfinished/unmaintained. The fridge did not shut all the way (didnt keep any of our drinks cold) and the airconditioning was excessively loud. Things you would expect to be there weren't i.e. no robes in the room, nothing to put into the bath (salts, soaks bubbles etc) which is a feature of the room. It was also really loud when others would return to their bungalows - the gates do not have soft close on them and slam shut waking us up at all hours. The stay was nice enough but for the price point I would not stay again.

This is a beautiful unit, & very well stocked except for the fact that it didn't have any kitchen towels or potholders (oven mitts). We asked for a quiet location & they put us in this unit, RIGHT next to the restaurant/bar. It was unbelievably noisy. We couldn't even sit on our own deck & enjoy the view (which wasn't as good as advertised-much further from the water than the pictures showed). The partying lasted until 11 PM both nights & my bedroom wall was vibrating with the boom, boom, boom of the music. I would have given this unit a 5 if it would have been quieter & closer to the water, but the noise RUINED our stay there.

Unfortunately our car got broken into overnight in the hotel parking which put a big dampener on our stay. Staff were helpful on the day, however, after we have been dealing with ongoing issues from the break in at their property for months I emailed them with no response 😢

This place was amazing! Rooms are so nice and peaceful. Our only issue was you can not check in after the designated check in time. So I would watch those hours closer for our next stay. Other than that it was our favourite place we stayed in AUS this trip!

Have stayed here twice as it is such a calm space with a beautiful aspect of the beach and pond. I did have an issue with the smoke alarm but was transferred to another room by a helpful staff member.
