Beautiful views across the beach, with plenty of wildlife just outside your door. Staff are very friendly and always happy to provide some local knowledge of the surrounding area. Cabins have most of what you need with a spacious patio area for a lazy afternoon bbq. Showers can be a little tricky getting a consistent temp, so don’t expect any luxury in that department.

We were so excited to get away for the night. We booked online into a little cabin. Arrived to find out it had no shower in it?! We had to use the amenities block which was a walk through mud and kangaroo poo. It stated nothing about not having a shower or we would have found other accommodation in the area. The price definitely didn’t reflect the lack of amenities costing over $140. Tonight we are staying in Malua Bay and it cost the same and there is no comparison… Anyway you live and learn!!!

Hi Penny. The cabin you booked is the basic eco-cabin and they don't have showers in them, only a toilet. All our other cabins have full bathrooms with showers. Our unique location within the Eurobodalla National Park allows all our guests the opportunity to interact with nature. We are 100% off the grid so you are correct in saying there is no comparison between us and Malua Bay. The experience we offer is completely different. Travel safe, take care, and thanks for sharing your views.

Great position with a wonderful view. Kangaroos and wallabies for neighbours. Even thoughtful low allergenic insect spray for the tiny pesky ants. Thanks!

Excellent spot, the beach is lovely. The view from ‘The Lighthouse’ is amazing and it is nice being surrounded by the wildlife. Could do with an extra plate and glass or two but otherwise exceptional.

Lovely Hillside cabin with views up to Tuross Head. Pizza oven was a fantastic treat. Rob lit the fire 2 hours before you wanted to eat and then you made your own pizza using beautiful fresh dough from the Bodalla Bakery! What a treat.

Thanks for the great review. The Hillside cabins do have fantastic views. Rob prides himself on having the oven just right for when you cook your pizzas-it sure is lots of fum creating your own. Hope to see you again soon.

We had the most perfect weekend. Our cabin looked over the park with beautiful veiws of the beach.. the kids were safe & free to ride their bikes & have fun. We Cannot wait for next time. The park managers are by far the best managers, lovely lovely people & Park.

Stunning location. A secret hideaway!
Really loved this holiday park. Their eco-friendly facility makes for simple living at it's best, in a gorgeous location to boot. The parkview cabin was perfect and had everything we needed. There was no shower in the cabin but the amenities block was close and convenient. I didn't mind at all as it's all part of the park's philosophy to keep their footprint small. Will absolutely stay again!

Hi Jo, Thanks for taking the time to review our Park. We're so glad to hear that you had a good time and enjoyed the chance to escape the rat race and get back to basics. We look forward to seeing you here again sometime. Until then we hope you have safe and happy travels. Best wishes, Steph, Pete and the Beachcomber Holiday Park team.

Relaxing
Comfortable cabin (Park view) - had a short walk to use amenities for showers - okey at this time of year, ? during peak periods (bikes a good idea for campers / caravaners). Gas stove, heater and BBQ (Webber). Cabin well appointed, very snug when closed-up against cold and wind. Views of sea from verandah - will see whales and dolphins. "Campers" are positioned on foreshore which requires looking over, past & through those sites when looking out to sea. Kangaroos and wallabies every where - lots of Joeys. Lagoon with bird life - watering hole for animals, mammal and reptile.

Great place for kids. Wallabies everywhere and tame. However we were informed on the booking of a shower, but there was no shower. We had to go to the toilet block.

Close to beach close to nature
Park was neat and close proximity to beach. Only negatives are the kitchen/lounge room had several cockroaches (8 to 10) (dispatched the ones we saw) and the mattresses were a little firm.
Response from Steph on 2016/8/20
Thanks for the feedback. I'm sorry to hear that your weren't expecting the cabin to have a modified bathroom (ie toilet and basin but no shower). I have recently updated our listing with Wotif to better represent the facilities. I'm mortified to hear that there were cockroaches in your cabin. We have only recently replaced the baits but will organise more extensive pest control activities as soon as possible to address this issue. Unfortunetely your response is anonymous so I'm unable to contact you directly to apologise. However if you choose to come back to the Park we do have several cabins with a full bathroom which might be more to your taste.

Great location
Booked + paid for 2 adults and 2 kids but arrived to unmade beds for the kids. Make the effort, you knew (and we paid) for the facility/service - paying guests don't make beds.
Sharing a beer and some laughs with a local
Hi Darren, I'm so sorry to hear that you weren't expecting to have to make the single beds. As I'm sure you can imagine making bunk beds to the standard expected by our guests is extremely time consuming and would add significantly to the charges of additional cabin guests. As such many cabin accommodation providers simply provide the linen for single beds as we do. However, I note that we are not clear about this in our correspondence with guests and will be sure to include this information in future booking confirmation emails. Your feedback has also brought to my attention the inconvenience this creates when guests are arriving late and are planning to put sleeping children straight to bed. In these circumstances I would certainly encourage you to contact reception (preferably at least 24 hours prior to your arrival) and ask that we arrange to have the beds made for you. This service will, however, attract a small fee. Once again, please accept my apologies for any inconvenience this has caused. I hope we see you here again sometime soon. Until then, safe and happy travels. Best wishes from Steph, Peter, and the Beachcomber Holiday Park team.

Hi Janine, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay in one of our Parkview cabins and that our resident kangaroos, wallabies and other critters made you welcome. I hope we get to see you here again sometime soon. Best wishes from Steph, Pete and the Beachcomber Holiday Park team.
