I just liked the lake in the vicinity of this hotel.
I did not like the staff services at all. This hotel is very run down and needs a make over. It was nowhere close to being a 5 star hotel.
Very disappointing stay.

Nice Resort close to beach access is difficult.
Pros:It's location
Cons:Need refurbishment.
Beautiful location on the estuary with a beach a short boat ride away. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The restaurant is beautifully located and the food was excellent. They served some good Australian wine.
The room was spacious and the bed was king size and comfortable. It however coil do with some refurbishment. The mini fridge in the room was rusty. The toilet could have been cleaner.
We took a one hour boat ride in the back water. It was beautiful with lots of birds. The backwaters we littered with plastic (not the hotels fault) but the government should do something about it.
