1 Wild Duck Drive, Cams Wharf, 2281 Swansea, Australia – Great location - show map
Nice and peaceful. BBQ area is great, sufficient lighting even when it gets dark by the evening.
AustraliaBeautiful location, service was less than impressive the restaurant was unavailable for both nights we stayed which we were not happy about as we wanted to stay within the resort and at time of booking were not informed of. The house was beautiful although you could not access the resort or pool, beach from the back of the property which was a little annoying.
AustraliaIt is a good place to go to unwind, the villa had the essentials, bed was comfy, staff helpful.
AustraliaGreat location to visit Catherine Hill Bay and Caves Beach. Jetbuzz was awesome fun and great that we just walked down to it. Kids happily playing in the pools and spa, plus a game of tennis and obstacles on the play area. Overall - great entertainment for 3 days away, plus very peaceful.
AustraliaThe place is very good to relax and spend good family time. We really enjoyed the stay.
Abkhazia, GeorgiaGreat location, tennis court, pool and water activity hire all great facilities on site, no need to leave the resort. Loft villa was furnished to exceptionally high standard.
AustraliaGreat accomodation, and a perfect spot. We'll be back.
AustraliaThanks Stewart for being so accommodating, lots to do despite Covid .I would recommend to open the heated pool though.
AustraliaThe property had been very nicely renovated however, the kitchen was not as well equipped as it could have been. Also, the oven was difficult to navigate (I am an experienced cook). I would suggest some basic instructions - I don’t want to have to spend an hour reading the instruction manual.
AustraliaThe location was ideal for us as we were going to a Funeral
