Was convient as I was staying for a wedding, but was more expensive than it needed to be. I had hair from a previous guest still in my bathroom. There was a full function outside my room, which I wasnt informed about, so my balcony with lagoon views (which I paid extra for) I couldn't use for 1 of my 2 nights stay. Definitely would choose to stay somewhere else next time.

Water activity was good, but found the restaurant male staff to be arrogant when questioned on service. To pool area was to open at 7am but was still being cleaned and serviced till much later. The spar was still not working at 9:30 am. They had the same menu for lunch and dinner, and it was overpriced and boring.

So here is the deal. The three staff members that work the pool area, boats, gym and kayaks named George, Tim and John are the heart and soul of this resort. Everyone else just shows up. The front desk staff is overworked and extremely grumpy. Nikki at the evening front desk was extremely helpful but was obviously not able to self empower to make the guest happy. The morning staff over road Nikki and they made us the bad guys. Honorable mention to Marcel who truly works hard and does the best he can Overall great family resort walking distance to a beautiful beach and lots to do for the entire family.

property had a lovely outlook was quiet and well maintained. clean and very tidy.. booked for 4 guests and only received 3 towels .. room key would not work so we were locked out of our room until partner went to rectify the issue .. child busting for toilet .. did allow us a later check out which was helpful with our travel plans . was a bit pricey for a one night stay .. girlfriend stayed at same time and rang venue instead of going through booking agent and got an $80 discount.. .

Resort is tired and needs maintenance. Some staff are helpful but most have an attitude issue and don't take responsibility for ensuring guest comfort. The resort is totally unsuitable for disabled and there is no indication on the website that long walks on unstable paths are required to navigate the property. Meals are best described as heated frozen dinners however the breakfast buffet had a good selection

Check in was simple. Ordered room service once in my room. Was told to dial a different number for room service drinks, this extension along with reception, bar, in room dining was either engaged or rung out (for nearly an hour I tried) I actually thought something may have been wrong with the phone! Finally got hold of someone. The floor of my room was quite dirty, so much so that after sitting with my feet up on the bed there was dirt and other peoples hair left there. Hair from others left on door frame in bathroom and shower. Skirting boards under the desk very dusty/dirty. Gap under front door easy for snakes and the likes to come in and join you in your room considering all the gardens and lake nearby. $40 buffet breakfast was average in taste / flavour but there was a lot to choose from.

Booked through hotel.com.Booked for 2 rooms.Novotel stated it was only 1 room.I showed my receipt of $536.50 cents.I booked for my 50th birthday & 4 people had to squeeze into 1 room! I am expecting a refund as I only had a 1 bedroom.I have used Hotel .com before and never had this experience! Feel really disappointed.Staff management was apologetic at Novetel and we requested an upgrade to what I paid for & it wasn’t an option.

Room was ok, skirting boards had gaps between them and the wall as if they had water damage previously, bathroom bench (wooden) was also pretty worn. Considering I paid $455 for one night I would have expected better quality.. floor wasn’t very clean, I had to dust my feet off otherwise I would have had dirt in my bed.. it’s not all bad, the buffet breakfast was really good..

I am sure back in its “hey day” this would have been quite a flashy place to stay. It’s not now. Reception were lacking in personality and there was no welcome. Customer service was zero. We liked our room, inside. It looked great. Bathroom, lovely. Bed, so rock hard we left at 3.30am. A mixture of consistent noise outside our room by guests not understanding there were people trying to sleep and that the floor would have been close to as comfortable as the bed was. Seriously bright lights outside the room also make a good sleep near impossible. Won’t be back. Is what it is.
