Stephen Jul 20, 2026 12:14:48 PM
Summary: Rooms are quite small but modern and well equipped.
AARON Jul 13, 2026 03:08:55 PM
Summary: Obscenely expensive for what is basically a cheap motel building with some planting. The greenery is beautiful, of course, but rooms are unfailingly bland affairs with virtually no comforts. The room lighting uses brilliant white bulbs which is incredibly uncomfortable - I felt like I was in an operating theatre rather than a hotel room. The WiFi was poor enough for YouTube to constantly buffer on the TV - this is really not good enough considering the price charged. Also, the shower door was broken and therefore kept jamming and the light switch was dodgy which meant the light in the bathroom didn't stay on. Also, this hotel can be rather noisy - families generally thinking they own the place, kids running around as well as the Hotel Darwin blaring loud music on a Saturday night. I asked to be moved and luckily one room's guests hadn't checked in so I got a swap. Generally with hotels you get what you pay for, in this case you don't.

Summary: Such a pretty relaxing resort with lovely bungalows and a very pleasant pool. The rooms are a little tight compared to some but very comfortable and have everything you need. The staff are extremely nice and helpful. There are lots of restaurants walking distance away.
