Be careful booking this

We arrived for a long weekend getaway to find out our room had been double-booked. We were told our booking had been cancelled once arriving and they could not accommodate us. No attempts to help or offer a solution. No one phoned us beforehand to notify us when cancelling so we could have at least had some time to make other plans and get a refund. It was so poorly handled. Just had to drive the long journey home and call Hotels.com the next day to even get an offer for a booking reschedule. No interest in trying to stay here again: it was too stressful and incredibly disappointing service. They even said we weren’t the first people this had happened to. So they just cancel bookings made on Hotels.com and say bad luck when you arrive.

Not Happy at all

I was disgusted with the whole stay as they were not ready for us with the manager not on site to check in, restaurant Not open and basic amenities not working properly. Was informed that they were not taking bookings but yet still took ours and as a result didn’t stay our second night and what a full refund

The pool was green and murky. The furniture old and dated. No chef in restaurant so not open for meals. Staff were vague when enquiring about things. TV cord didn't reach the plug so no TV. Thank goodness we had an extension cord in our luggage.

Amazing spacious cabin, with beautiful views of park and wildlife. Comfortable bed and pillows. Light and airy. Would help to have utensils in communal BBQ area and cleaning products to wipe down bench and wash up. Unfortunately cant pack these things into a suitcase when flying. Otherwise would reccommend as relaxing and peacefull.

Some mix up with our booking - had to wait 45 minutes for manager to arrive. Complimentary bottle of wine - sorry but it tasted awful had to be thrown out. Directions on the map are hard to read No restaurant or bar on site - none that was open Ants in the room/bugs even with doors/windows closed Nice to see kangaroos and wallabies around the site Great restaurant down the road with a live crocodile Overall with the mix up on booking?? Disappointed with our stay It would appear new management had taken over this accomodation. This place has so much potential.I hope management sort it out as it is a beautiful and tranquill location

Peaceful and relaxing environment.Local wallabies.On booking was not told there was no restaurant open.Had to drive to get food/drinks and evening meal and breakfast.Tea,coffee,milk was provided but no cups! Air conditioner was noisy.Is rated 4 star but was well below par. Over priced for what was delivered.Would have asked for compensation but no staff or reception personnel were not on site.
