Lunch- Fish burger, consisting of sliced packet cheese some salad and imported reheated fish from a box you can find at the supermarket.

The room felt "cold", even in this tropical climate. The bed was TERRIBLE! My husband thinks that it's from kids jumping on it. I think it's from years... more

This resort was okay. We just stayed one night and I won't really want to stay much longer. We paid $130 AUD per night. The breakfast was not a very good value. more
