Endless Kids Activities

“During our stay, my kids were utterly captivated by the variety of children's amenities available. From the games room to craft activities and movies, they had a blast! The jumping pillows were their absolute favorite, keeping them entertained for hours and allowing me to relax by the pool area. It was amazing to see all the thoughtfully arranged programs that ensured their days were filled with fun!” view full review

Refreshing Pool Areas

“One of my fondest memories from our trip was enjoying the tranquil pool areas. The pools were clean and well-maintained, providing a perfect oasis for relaxation while my kids played. The spa at the pool felt so inviting, although it could have been a bit warmer. Regardless, wrapping up our days with a swim was a highlight of our vacation!” view full review

Movie Nights and More

“We had a good experience with the resort's media and entertainment offerings. On one rainy day, we borrowed DVDs, which added an extra layer of fun for the kids. It was such a thoughtful touch by the resort, especially considering the weather we faced upon arrival. Movie nights became a cherished tradition during our stay, turning it into a nice family bonding experience.” view full review

Delicious On-Site Cafe

“We absolutely loved the on-site cafe! The food was delicious, and it provided a great option for meals when we didn't feel like cooking. My favorite was the avocado toast, perfectly paired with a lovely breakfast atmosphere. Sitting under the palm trees while enjoying some hot chips and ice cream on a hot day made it a pleasant dining experience for our family.” view full review

We had a great family getaway at the park, with plenty of activities for the kids and a relaxing beach vibe. The townhouse we stayed in was spacious and had all the comforts we needed, though the pricing was on the higher side. Although there were lots of activities, the pools were quite busy, particularly on weekends. Overall, it’s a fantastic option for family fun but might not be ideal for those seeking a quieter atmosphere.

The park is perfectly located right next to the beach, which was ideal for our family outings, and it only took a short drive to Umina for additional shops.

Unfortunately, the on-site cafe was closed during our stay, so we had to find dining options outside the park.

My stay at the holiday park was a mix of great experiences and a few letdowns. The cabin we had was comfortable and had great amenities close by, but the cleanliness of some areas could definitely be improved. I loved being so close to the beach and having a number of activities for the kids right at our doorstep. However, the pool conditions and some inconsistent service were a bit disappointing. Overall, it was family-friendly, and I'm glad we had the chance to enjoy it.

We had a great family getaway at this park hotel, perfect for kids with plenty of activities. The amenities were impressive, with multiple pools, jumping pillows, and a water park, though it got a bit crowded over the weekend. The location near the beach and recreational areas added to our enjoyment, but the villa's condition and service could use improvement.

The park has great facilities for kids, but it can be chaotic and noisy, especially on weekends. The villas we stayed in were not worth the price—lacking in heating and proper cooking tools. The service could be improved, as we experienced some communication issues. Overall, while the park is family-friendly with lots of activities, the crowded atmosphere and maintenance issues were real drawbacks.
