This was a lakeside family cabin. It was clean and amenities all worked. Ample hot water, cooking, tv etc all very good, and beautiful lakeside view. Including a resident duck family, who visited.

The views from our room were absolutely breathtaking. The unit itself was clean and everything worked well. Very nice kitchen and living room option. We enjoyed eating our meals on the picnic tables outside the room.

Staff were friendly. We had a 3 bedroom villa. There’s only an aircon in the living room. This aircon is not strong enough to ventilate/circulate the entire villa. Guests were advised to keep the windows closed so that insect will not enter the villa. Moreover, windows did not have any insect netting installed. Unfortunately, there were no standing fans in the rooms and staff do not have any standing fans to be sent to our rooms. Our option were to either open the windows and let the insects in. Or closed the windows and deal with the stuffiness. Resort should consider putting fans in the bedroom. Definitely not recommended for summer holidays.

Location for view is magnificent and the cabin was well equipped and very clean. We understood there was no bathroom but we did expect a sink and tap to wash your hands. I also found it unusual that there was no staircase to the toilet block and no lighting . The amenities block was clean and the shower was very hot with hooks to hang your towel. This was appreciated. The sinks in the ladies bathroom are very slow to drain. We also appreciated the insect screened window and the lovely fresh linen.

What a view! Clean, spacious and well set up for a short or long stay. The front porch enabled us sit, enjoy our local wine and cheese and take in the views while sharing travel stories with our neighbours.

It was very quiet, great for stargazing, we loved being close to the hot pools and the lake and the town. Our family really likes having the 2 bedrooms.
