    Pros +

    • Location to waterfront
    • Honestly, for us this was a gem to discover. We'd never stayed in this kind of accomodation but the photos looked amazing and truthfully, you expect a certain amount of "creativity" with the photos but when we arrived.....we were totally blown away. Spotless unit, amazing view and such lovely hosts. Our next stay, we will try the waterfrontage units but that is just a personal preference. The garden units also had a great view and even the campsites were well appointed and perfectly equipped. Seriously - dont overlook this fabulous piece of tropical paradise!
    • Beach and view fabulous

    Cons -

    • Having to leave!
    • For a Delux cabin,no 20, below average and disappointing for the price paid, needs complete fit out as 1970s cupboards and fittings. Floors were dirty on arrival, fan dirty, bench top worn,tv remote not working properly, ceiling needs patching, all cupboard doors shabby, cracked cups, no microwave dish and not even a bottle of dishwashing liquid just crumby little packets for 2 washes. Towel rack in bathroom was split and toilet with mismatching parts and looked unclean. Thin toilet paper. No hand towel or face washer. Tv could have been on wall so could watch from bed. A bbq on the deck would be a good accessory. Overall cabin very poor and we should have been offered a discount.
    • The first night and half of the next day we didn't have any hot water.

    The peace and quietness. Very family oriented. Beautiful sea breeze didn't need to constantly use the air con

    The first night and half of the next day we didn't have any hot water.

    8MartinPosted on: 4-17-2025

    What breakfast?

    Ongoing work very noisy and loss of power

    10ReganPosted on: 4-6-2025

    Beautiful spot on the beach. Short walk up to the pub with great food and live music.

    10RobinsonPosted on: 3-4-2025

    Everything. Prefect spot. Easy check-in. Room clean. Everything in the room that we needed.

    I liked everything.

    10NatashaPosted on: 1-5-2025

    Location is magical, bungalows were clean and fully stocked, staff made check in a breeze with different guests arriving separately etc free wifi was added bonus

    10BurimimiPosted on: 1-2-2025

    It was everything i needed as my husband had passed 2 weeks prior to my stay. I had his ashes with me and sat him on the porch to catch the sunrises sunsets and ocean view/breeze. I needed it so much. Just perfect to be in the present.

    The smoker next door... wasn't intentional , but I get headaches from the smell. Just closed the window and door to mask the smell.

    Can't get a better location, absolute beachfront

    The couch was a little old and pretty uncomfortable

    4BarlowPosted on: 12-16-2024

    The location right by the beach the cabin setup and large fridge

    We were provided cabin 2 which was directly adjacent to a construction zone. I woke up with the sound of a digger. Parked in by construction workers. Could not spend a relaxing time by the beach drove down to Palm cove.

    Great Location, peaceful, serenity, quiet, great accommodation..this was the 3rd time back and we will come back again ..I would highly recommend Ellis Beach caravan park..plus the Tavern over the road for breakfast and dinner ? ?

    Beautiful Spot very close to beach. Nice area to sit outside room.

    No A/C in second room. Floor had a few rough patch jobs.

    10SonyaPosted on: 11-21-2024

    The cabins were amazing. So comfortable and clean and the views were beautiful. I love this place. It's very special

    Don't change anything it's perfect

    7TheresePosted on: 11-10-2024

    Staff were great, quiet and unnoticeable . You could be isolated as much as you wanted. Needed fan in bedroom.

    Being charged for bbq use. Should be part of the accomodation fee. Facility around bbq very poor. Too much coverage over pool. Pool opening hours are too late. Should be 7ish. Not 8:30am.

    10MarkPosted on: 10-29-2024

    The cabin at the park was very clean, modern and well set up. We went across to the Ellis Bar and grill, the Brisket Burger was the best burger i have had in Australia.
