Reviews and Ratings
We were excited for our family holiday at the beach view cabin, but unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. Delayed check-in and run-down conditions made our stay feel less than special. However, the pool was nice despite being very cold and it was a good location for beach access. Overall, we likely won't be back after paying a premium for such an underwhelming experience.
The location of the park is truly fantastic, with direct access to a lovely beach perfect for kids. However, the condition of the cabin we stayed in was disappointing as it wasn’t clean and felt more overpriced than it should have been. The lack of management regarding noisy teenagers also detracted from our overall experience. Despite these issues, the park had great facilities for kids, making it a family-friendly spot.
We had a mixed experience during our stay. The beachfront location was absolutely perfect, just steps away from the sand, which we loved. However, the cabin we stayed in was quite tiny and not suitable for larger families. We did enjoy the amenities like the heated pool and camp kitchen, but some aspects, like the size of bathroom cubicles and lack of separate locks for gendered bathrooms, were concerning.
I was really hoping for a luxurious stay based on the price, but it felt more like an overpriced caravan park. On the plus side, the beach was beautiful and the location offered great access to nature. However, the cabins were quite dated, and the service left much to be desired, lacking any real responsiveness to issues we encountered.
