I'd say it's a nice place, but they should clearly state that even if you book a room there won't be any blankets or towels. This is extra. I've never heard ablut that. We needed to pay for that extra.. Also the service lady said she'd soo kind to come back to give it to us, which was odd in that situation. Besides that, still a nice place to stay, but in winter it's not the warmest in the rooms.

Thanks Gergely - just to respond to your bedding comment you booked one of our budget cabins which is a budget priced option to keep prices down for guests on budgets. This is indicated in the listing and photos, and an automated email sent after booking explaining the room description to make it super clear - sorry you didn't pick up on this and it did affect your stay with us.Thanks again for coming - enjoy your travels.Many thanks,Aaron & the Shelly Beach team

The grounds were incredibly tidy. Very clean bedroom and kitchen/bathroom facilities. We stayed in the lodge and the beds were very comfortable. The room was hot being summer, but a standing fan was supplied in the wardrobe which was a relief. Would have liked to have stayed longer for the kids to enjoy the pool and play areas.

We paid non powered site to camp at however the day was raining so we upgraded to the lodge room which was super comfy and warm especially for our daughter. It was fun meeting the other guests even though we share the kitchen and bathrooms but it was super easy to move around the area and we felt at home and safe

The property was on the beach front, we were in a deluxe glamping pod which had views of the beach, which included the most amazing sunsets each night. Quiet position, clean property, all amenities yiu need are available for free, including showers.
