Reflections Tuncurry - Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"A warm welcome by friendly and informative staff. Lovely clean, modern cabins all in walking distance to Tuncurry CBD and the rock pool for a morning cuppa."

Lani's Holiday Island - Caravan Park

8/10 Good

"I was pleasantly surprised how quiet and peaceful Lani’s is. I imagine that it would get very hectic in the peak season tho. The accomodation was very clean including all the windows in the cabin which I really appreciated. My only complaint is that the bed was not as comfortable as I would’ve liked. I would happily recommend staying at Lani’s but perhaps bring a mattress topper if you like a soft mattress."
