    The facilities at the complex are great, but it was little touches (i.e. board games, soft throw blankets, and more) they provide in this apartment that made our stay even more lovely and they were appreciated by the entire family. The kids loved the place. I can advise that the bed in the master bedroom is ridiculously comfortable! and the kids said their beds were comfy too.

    Clean spacious and well appointed property with lovely views. Raymond the caretaker went above and beyond to make our stay amazing. From a early checkin to extra bikes / scooters for the kids to ride, and everything in between he made it extra special for our family.

    The pool area was so great for the two young kids. As was the kookaburra feeding! I highly recommend it if you are travelling with young children. Also the location to Nelly Bay ferry made it so easy and having a bus stop right out the front made travel through out the island stress free.
