Cozy Glamping Tent

“I stayed in a glamping tent, which was a lovely blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. It easily accommodated my family of four and had everything we needed, from the beautifully designed interior to the outdoor deck with a BBQ. It felt like we were camping, but with the luxury of home.” view full review

We had a lovely short stay at this holiday park, which is conveniently close to the beach. The facilities were nice, and the ambiance was family-friendly, although the cleanliness could have been improved. Being able to bring our dog along was a huge plus for us. However, our tent site could have used a little more attention to cleanliness, making our experience less than ideal.

I had a unique experience at this resort. The location is fantastic, right next to a beautiful beach where I could drive my 4WD, and I really appreciated the family-friendly environment with activities for the kids. However, my tent site was disappointing due to cleanliness issues, and dining options could use improvement in quality. While the staff was lovely, the overall cleanliness and facilities left something to be desired.

Our stay at the resort was memorable, especially due to the amazing staff who were incredibly accommodating. The location is lovely and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway. While the amenities were clean and convenient, I did find the significant charge for bringing pets a bit excessive and the distance to a dog beach was somewhat inconvenient. Overall, it offers good value for families looking for a peaceful retreat.

Our stay at the resort was unforgettable, highlighted by the amazing service we received. The staff genuinely cared about our experience, going above and beyond when we faced a sudden storm. The location is beautiful, with easy access to the beach and scenic surroundings, perfect for a family getaway. However, there's a bit of a travel hassle, as getting into town requires either a ferry ride or a longer drive, which might not be ideal for everyone.

I had a great stay at this resort! The staff were incredibly helpful and genuinely caring when our camping spot faced unexpected weather issues. The location is beautiful, surrounded by beach and river access, perfect for fishing and adventures. On a downside, the rooms were smaller than expected based on photos and the air conditioning struggled to keep up, leaving some noise. However, the overall experience was solid and I'd definitely return.
