Opal Hot Springs & Holiday Park
Great little unit, comfy beds, access to an over in the campsite kitchen, but there’s a stove, microwave, kettle and toaster with a full set of dishes in the room. Pool was so much. For the kids, and the hot pools were great. We’ll be back!

Location was great, hotel was super clean and Parking is ample. Good stay overall. Just one suggestion, maybe its time for them to change their old aircon units.
