Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay

Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay

10/10 Excellent
"This is an amazing spot for families. Walking distance to everything, amazing amenities and so close to the water at Shoal Bay which is stunning. It can be pricey so keep an eye out for deals. It's also close to pubs and restaurants so if you like a quite area with no noise this may not be the spot for you. For us it was perfect."
