The property facilities are nice and well maintained, and walking distance to the great barrier reef experiences. The staff were helpful enough. My main complaint was the limited rooming options for double room adults (i.e. only twin beds vs. double or queen)

Was a lovely break away. Only thing I would like to mention. Maybe monitor the pool area, quite a few people we noticed leaving pool area and leaving a towel or bag as to save their seats/lounger.

Not much information giving to us when we arrived. Everything was well kept and the pool was fabulous. Things we were not informed of were things like umbrella use, bikes for hire, when we asked about transport one of the staff gave us a look like we should know. Being out of country these things would have beneficail

Lovely resort with friendly staff. Rooms could do with a deep clean with lots of dust build up in rooms. I also filled in their form twice to decline a room clean. Room was cleaned both times and no credit received which was disappointing. It's a great idea - just needs to be better executed.
