All in all, it was good. Loud at times, but expected during the busy period. One of pools wasn’t available on one of the days we were there, which was a shame because it was my son’s favourite water slide after the splash pad. Everything was clean which was good. The rooms are slightly outdated, but it had everything we needed for the time we stayed. Parking was a challenge with a taller vehicle, but we mostly worked it out. There’s a lot of road works outside the resort, so keep that in mind if you’re staying here. Thanks for the great time and great memories 😊

Great resort for families !

Great resort for families. Splash zone, pools and amenities for families are ideal. We had kids aged 7 & 3 who LOVED the water slides and pool. With a supermarket and bottle shop around the corner this is a super location and great place to stay. Highly recommended! It is no frills so suggest BYO pool towels.

This place was great for our family of 5. (Children 12, 9 & 5). We enjoyed the pools and facilities. The parking was ideal and the location was a 5 min walk to beach. It was annoying being on the 3rd floor (no elevator) but the view was nice. We would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time staying here and it was just as good as before. The kids had a blast, rooms were comfortable, stocked with what we needed and surprisingly quiet despite kids as neighbours. My kids enjoyed the many pool, tennis, basketball, mini golf and night time BBQ.The only hard bit we found last time and this time is the amount of stairs but not sure that can be helped. The staff at the Deck (im guessing mostly seasonal) weren't the nicest or accommodating this time around. Yes they're working on the tram lines out side the resort but we couldnt hear it and it didnt impact our stay; in fact, were excited for our next stay so we can use them!!

We loved almost everything about turtle beach! It had everything we needed for a family and made everything so easy! Shame about the light rail works but that can't be helped! Only two things were that the rooms were a bit dated (first world problems) and the couches weren't very comfortable, but aside from that. Loved it!!

The first thing to say is that we did enjoy our stay, and our kids had a great time. We had read the reviews and knew what to expect and paid around $220 a night for a two bedroom apartment. This is budget accommodation so that’s what you should expect. Room We stayed in a superior room and I wouldn’t stay in anything less here. It was very basic and dated, but still comfortable. Mostly clean (the couch needs a steam clean). The carpet was new in our apartment, as were the bench tops in the kitchen, and appliances had been upgraded. Stairs became tiresome with a pram, but we knew this before coming. We are a family of four with 2 kids under 6, and I would say this resort is probably more suited to families with older kids who would enjoy the amenities more. It is loud into the night as there are kids in the pool until late. Also fine by us. The splash zone doesn’t allow adults down the slides, which makes it hard with little ones. It is well manned and managed though with a life guard. The amount of pools was great, but they were just a little too cold (it’s late August we stayed though). My three year old didn’t tolerate the temperature of the water and even I was struggling. They are well maintained and clean. Restaurant and food is basic too but absolutely fine for snacks/ice cream. Woolworths, beach, shops and restaurants are all walking distance. When the tram line is finished this will be a great location to be. Staff are lovely, helpful, friendly.
