Peppers Bluewater Resort

Peppers Bluewater Resort

10/10 Excellent
"I was a little hesitant to book the Bluewater Resort based on the reviews but we were very pleasantly surprised by the two bedroom apartment we received. It was Clea, warm, modern and comfortable with a huge upstairs living/kitchen area and lake views. Easy walk across the road to the supermarket/lake and restaurants. Great check-in experience with Monica, and received nice service the following morning when ordering drinks to go. Would happily stay here again."
