Sensational breakfasts, good choice of pools to use.

Indigo Australia

Great facilities - looks like the place has had a recent face lift and everything is fantastic. Very friendly staff throughout!

Chris_m_01 United Kingdom

Service was excellent from check in to check out, very friendly and helpful. The kids loved it, the pools, the food and the staff were so lovely.

Nikki Australia

This is a genuine good value family place to stay. Three pools, pizza place and restaurant bar plus more - no need to go anywhere else. Our room was comfortable enough and the shower hot and strong. The WiFi, like most places we've stayed at, was patchy. Our 5yo boy loved it, especially the big pool with the slides. Lots of families so he had plenty of little mates to play with. Would we stay here again? Definitely.

Michael Australia

I liked that the resort was a one stop shop when it came to travel. Free parking, 3 different pools depending on your preference, a restaurant that you could dine in from 6:30 until late and of course happy hour.

Olivia Australia

Amazing pool and nice staff. They changed the sofa bed to a single bed after we notified them about the noise of the bed at night. we really appreciated the quick and friendly service.

Maddie Australia

Fantastic pool areas with a variety of pool options. Nice cafe/bar by the pool with good food and friendly service. Room cleaners were very kind at fulfilling requests (extra towels or soap). Manager approved late check-out and another manager helped us find our room and carry our baggage upon arrival. We were kindly offered the guest change rooms after check-out so that the kids could shower and change after their final swim before leaving.

Ford Australia

Open car part but still okay. the Location is safe enough

David Australia

The value for money is hard to beat. Nice room that was cleaned daily, several pools that kept the kids more than happy and a price that was great when compared to other places.

Ben Australia

Pool and bar. travelled to cairns for a residential block with QLD TAFE but I had paid for the stay by myself because I brought my family with me. The kids loved it. Stayed here in March, and stayed there again in June, not staying anywhere else in cairns now. I love it. Be back in September, October this year and January 2022.
