We had a mixed experience at the park. The location is fantastic, especially for beach lovers, and the staff was exceptionally helpful. However, the cabin we stayed in felt quite dated and could really use some updates. The amenities for kids were a big hit, but the cabin's comfort left something to be desired.

The cabin we stayed in was neat and tidy, but it definitely showed its age and needed some upgrades. It was clean enough but basic, serving just the purpose of a place to sleep while we visited family.

Our experience at the park hotel was a mixed bag. The unit we stayed in was modern and spacious, providing great comfort for our long stay. However, the abrupt check-in process and the cramped feeling between cabins left some room for improvement. Despite these issues, the value for money was reasonable especially given the proximity to the beach.

I had a mixed experience at the park. The view from my cabin was absolutely stunning, just steps away from a beautiful beach, which really made my stay special. However, the condition of the Economy Cabin I initially checked into left much to be desired—dirt and a general sense of being rundown. Once I got upgraded, the Deluxe Cabin was a whole different world, but I wish I hadn't had to deal with the initial issues. The staff resolved my complaint quickly, which I appreciated.

I started in an Economy Cabin that was quite basic and not very clean, with a musty smell. However, after being upgraded, the Deluxe Cabin was spacious, modern, and very comfortable.

Service was hit or miss. The reception staff, particularly Mim, could improve significantly in customer engagement and information-sharing. However, once I raised my concerns, the staff handled my upgrade and complaint very efficiently.

The park's pool area looked inviting, and I could imagine it being a great spot during the summer. The communal spaces were well kept.

I had a lovely stay at the park, with easy access to the beach just a short walk away. The cabin was spacious and well-appointed, perfect for a family getaway. The staff were incredibly helpful throughout my stay, making me feel welcomed. However, I encountered some cleanliness issues in the Economy Cabin that detracted from my experience initially. Overall, it’s a great value for the money if you can opt for the Deluxe Cabins.

I recently enjoyed a stay at a lovely cabin right on the beach. The cabin was well-maintained and had everything I needed for a relaxing getaway. However, I did encounter some issues due to loud music from a festival nearby and the cabin not being cleaned during my long stay. Overall, while the terrain was beautiful, the noise levels and service could definitely be improved.

The cabin I stayed in was clean, comfortable, and provided all the necessary amenities. However, the only air conditioning unit was in the lounge, which made the bedrooms a bit warm at night.

Although the park's staff was generally helpful, I found it concerning that the accommodation was never cleaned during my extended stay. It would have been nice to receive fresh towels and bedding.
