Top Rapid Creek Hotel Reviews

Palms City Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Room was lovely, only stayed one night due to flight the next day. We had a bungalow room which had its own bbq. Faced the pool. We stayed here 10 years ago and standard was still as good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Definately recommend."
