The park is in a wonderful location and the facilities are amazing. We had a 3 bedroom cabin which had everything we needed. The kids loved the playground, bouncy pillow, basketball court and pool with slides. Even though the pool is supposed to be heated I still found it to be on the cold side. Perfect place for anyone to stay.

Leanne Australia

The sand dune shacks were clean, comfortable and much bigger than expected.

Nada Australia

The accommodation was lovely, enough space for everyone to feel happy and content. The beds were amazing, good size and quality. There was a lot to do for the kids which was wonderful! The central location of facilities meant the older kids could be jumping on the pillow while the little ones were in the water with the adults. The games room was handy when it rained.

Mikayla Australia

We loved our 'staycation'... a little change of scenery, and plenty to see and do. The kids had a ball, and were very entertained. And the staff were all very friendly. We will absolutely be back again sometime!

Kerrie Australia

The facilities for the whole family were great, our cabin was very comfortable and everything was in working order. The park and grounds were kept extremely well and the waterslides were an absolute favourite for the kids.

Monica Australia

Everything! Resort is great for families with great pool area, bouncing pillow, outdoor movie area, go cart hire. Playground is currently being built and looks great! Units are spacious and comfortable with everything we needed. Grounds are well maintained.

Abi Australia

Close to the airport and park surroundings very neat.

Kristeen Australia

That it had everything you needed in the villas. Very practical.

Jenelle Australia

The resort locates in the west of Adelaide and close to the Glenelg Beach, Adelaide Airport, 20 min drive to Port Adelaide, and 30 min drive to Adelaide City.

Xiaomin China

Great location next to the beach and close proximity to the airport. Great facilities for kids … shame that the pool was closed the day we were there.
