The hotel facilities were great and the staff wonderful, but we had a negative experience when checking in where the previous guests were given a late checkout, and we were not able to get into our room until close to 9 pm. This was despite us previously asking for an early check-in as we had taken an overnight flight from Japan. When we complained we were initially dismissed but asked that the complaint be handled by a manager and they ended up giving us a free dinner which was very nice. The loft room was not really suitable for a family of 5 with teenagers given the single bathroom and lack of privacy and the top room/area got very hot at night even with the AC on full. The pool was great but the pool bar tiny for it's size and it took ages to get a drink if you wanted one. There were no activities for 12-18-year-olds as they were not allowed to join in the kid's activities, and when they asked to join in the adult's activities (bomb comp, pillow fight, tug of war etc.), they were not allowed because the prize was a can of beer. Overall, it was OK for the price (about $400 AUD/night), but ultimately, it was just a large room, so I won't be going back in a hurry.
