The location is incredible.
The rooms are quite small especially for the cost and unfortunately the dolphins don’t come to the feeding experience 3 days in a row…
Staff was friendly. All the requests answered and solved fast. Lovely and quiet resort
It’s a bit far from the city, they didn’t have the tap-drinking water that you may need preparing ahead or buy bottled from store. But the grocery store in resort was convenient and bar or restaurant had free drinking water
Super fun, family-friendly, Lovely staff!
Rooms a were very clean and comfy but could use some updating to keep them looking fresh. Still very nice!
The closeness to the dolphins and other marine life was incredible. You pay for the location! Our view of the beach was lovely and the staff were great.
It’s a lot of money for what you get. We had a beach room view and for what we paid, we think you should get a few extras, such as cutlery and a toaster. The room was quite basic. They charge you to rent cutlery/cooking equipment (100 AUD).
Near to beach with dolphins
Very average no cooking facilities
Modern production resort.
People come here for the dolphins. Do not expect too much the government has pretty much eliminated that.
We stayed in a superior beach view room. Ideal for a couple or small family. We cannot praise this resort enough. The room is superbly positioned on the beach with dolphins swimming only 50 metres away!There is everything that you need, a comfy bed, a small kitchen, beach and bath towels, cleaning materials etc.After a long drive from Perth via an overnight in Geraldton, we were really ready for our stay. Monkey mia did not disappoint.We enjoyed a meal in the restaurant and a takeaway meal from the bar, both were generous portions. Sundowner drinks in happy hour were also a must for us.We wished that we had been able to stay for longer.
Nothing, we loved it all.
What an amazing spot, the wildlife, the views, the staff, all great.
Close to beaches and national park. Dolphin experience is very interesting. Good amenities.
Rooms were a bit tight
Unique location, highly recommend. Helpful staff, good food in restaurant, great sunsets at the Monkey Bar!
Beds not too comfortable. Double bed is family suite doesn't make sense, should have a queen or king.
We loved the dolphin experience right at the property.
I thought the fridge was to small especially if you were going to try and cool your own meals in the campKitchen.
Location of the resort was where the Dolphins Experience takes place. Well managed as per RAC standard. Daily room service. Great encounter with the family of dolphins.
The AC located right over the bed so was hard to sleep with cold air on yr face and yet too hot if 'cool' setting was not on.
Exceptional
Smoker next door to us, smoke kept blowing in our room. Maybe a rule to say smoking away from buildings it is a national park, no smoking would be better
Location is epic. Food in restaurant and pub was really good. Pools would be lovely outside of school holidays. Nice shop on site. Saw my first ever turtles at the jetty, and the dolphin spotting is fantastic!
Incredibly expensive for the no thrills motel-style room, but we were there in Easter holidays and you’re paying for the location. No mirror in the bedroom, just in the (very small) bathroom.The dolphin feeding in the morning is a bit ick and feels like a zoo. I’d skip that and just watch out for them along the beach. They swim up and down all day and it’s amazing to see them so close!
Fab location to see dolphins and turtles. Cabin style accommodation - surprisingly comfortable bed - we stayed in family studio that had a small kitchen.
Family studio had small kids playground just outside - great if you travel with toddlers, less if you travel with teen.
Great location on the beach, nice pier, excellent boat trips. The Dolphin feeding sessions were professionally run, educational and enjoyable. Nice pool.Main restaurant food was very good with nice tables inside and out.
Room was a bit basic and patio area in need of updating. Parking difficult as ground works being done and fewer spaces available.Seagulls and Emus around restaurant were a problemMain restaurant closed very early, we couldn’t get a glass of wine after our meal at 9.00pm
Location was amazing. Food was fantastic, staff were so helpful and accommodating and very friendly
Great view, nice pool, good food, nice room, great shated kitchen, toilets really clean, good fish cleaning station
Room servicing was hit and miss, fridge was too small.
