Pleasant stopover

The studio cabin was compact but very well thought out and equipped. The Splash Park could definitely do with an update, which I believe it is closing for, in February. The Games Room games all take coins only, which we did not have on us. Updating those to accept cards would be a wise upgrade. Overall, the accommodation and facilities was certainly enough to keep us comfortable and entertained for our stay.

The property was very clean and updated, we loved the location. I had my morning walk around Shaws Bay. There is an awesome playground near by. The only thing that was disappointing was the jumping pillow that had a rip and wasnt up. My kids were really looking forward to that one. Other than that, would definitely stay again!
