"Our aloha cabin was really lovely and comfortable. It was also super clean. The kids loved the pools and waterslide. We loved the whole park. There is a bowling club next door (food not great) or cheeky dog restaurant across the road (food great) which was handy but I would have loved a cafe on site or even just coffee. That was the only thing missing for me. Also if you could pick this park up and put it in shoal bay that would be even better cos I didn’t love the location."
