Koala koala
Amazing stay at koala bungalows. Great central location for the island. The bungalows were great, wallaby’s wandering around too. Kitchen was really good as were all amenities. We also visited the sanctuary and held a koala. This is a must. Would definitely recommend a stay here

Cleaners stole
Stayed herefor 2 nights. Came back to the room and all our possessionswere stolen by the cleaners. This was confirmed when the staff pulled half of our possessions out of the bin where the cleaners chuck the rubbish. Staff offered a free drink, for $150 worth of possesions lost under their care.

Great cocktails
Great location, 400m from the beach. The rooms are quite basic and amenities are in need of a refresh. There wasn't any hot water in the female showers, but it was nice to have a cool shower. Great surroundings in nature and love the wildlife living next door.

A comfortable place to stay with happy staff, bungalows are a little basic and in my view a little over priced.
