"Good location, nice water view, pool, comfortable rooms. But the buffet breakfast needs some attention. It was very busy and having just one (working) coffee machine for1 00+ people is just unacceptable. You either have to wait or pay extra for a handmade one. Not very luxe."

8/10 Good

"Well situated and appointed family resort, set in lush gardens with restaurants within the complex. As an older couple travelling without a car we left the pools to the very happy families using them. However we could walk to the stunning Botanic Gardens and use the bus to travel into the city for the wonderful Kuranda Rail trip and walks along the Esplanade. The resort makes a good base, the staff are all lovely and rooms are serviced daily."
