“Best get away with friends”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

person found this review helpful

Four of us, two boys and two girls, stayed there for 2 nights on the 8th feb,2012. We couldnt find our camping ground, as night was falling, and weather detoriating so we had to look for close accomodation last minute. From the entrance gate, to the bathroom of our cottage, everything is clean and organised just like a mini resort. Amazing live-in management couple. They treated us like we are childhood friends. Nice, beautiful nature scenes from the balcony, with lots of parrot like looking birds. 5 mins walk to all the cafes, bars, shops and the beach. Perfect location, 2 minutes walk to information centre, 15 minutes drive to the erskine water fall. The cottage has got an amazing cosy interior. Had the best time of our life, my two british friends liked it so much and we going there again before they leave. Thank you Mr and Mrs manager for making our stay a memorable one. Many thanks from Mesh, kristian and the girls. We will see you soon.

He was extremely helpful and made sure that I was OK throughotu the weekend... The room was clean and the service was top class...

“My Hens weekend....Awesome!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

person found this review helpful

I booked double tents as my Hens wekend away as didnt want middle aged women to stay in dorms. We got full use of kitchen, bathrooms and great pressure in showers and what can I say PAKI!

Paki and his partner Kim run the show and what a greeting! Paki couldnt do enough to make us feel comfortable and even offered my pregnant friend a discounted room as it was a small walk to the tents and she needed to be close to a toilet.

The wildlife (and I dont mean the men at the disco) including the local Koala and the Cockatoos and King Parrots were amazing and any overseas traveller must stay here. I had stayed in the cottages twice before Paki ran the place and it has definately improved.

I highly recommend it and nothing was too much of an effort for Paki. I will return with my family and friends in a few months and have taken many brochures back to my owrk with me.

Thank you for making my Hens weekend so comfortable and memorable. Keep up the great work and the tents were amazingly comfortable. Thank You

Room Tip: Definately opt for tents and not dorms as you can stand in them and they also have lights and beds w...
