Very Good

The location of this accommodation is its best asset. It is set amongst bushland with a view of Black Mountain and is a short drive into the city.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
All staff had a great sense of humour and went beyond to help check-in. They made guests feel comfortable and happy. Highly recommend staying at Alivio in particularly the villas. However, this was my first time staying in the cabins. It's a bit outdated and needs some TLC.

Cabin was very basic but met our needs, facilities were great, and staff were lovely.
We regularly go to Canberra and generally stay in serviced apartments. On this occasion we had our 6-year-old granddaughter with us so decided to try something different and more kid friendly. Still looking for quality accommodation though. The advert looked good and promised premium accommodation, and we paid for what was supposed to be a premium unit. Well premium it was not. The unit was grubby when we arrived and we spent some time cleaning before we unpacked. The reality is that the unit was very tired and in need of lots of maintenance and cleaning. There were a number of damaged items that had clearly been damaged for some time. There was black mold on the ceiling in the lounge area and the safe was not working. I like to have access to a safe when we travel so that we can lock away valuable items (iPads computer etc) when we're out. I asked 3 days in a row for the safe to be fixed, was promised on each occasion that it would be, all to no avail. It was still broken when we departed 6 days after our arrival. We enjoyed our holiday but the accommodation was certainly a low point in the overall experience. Would we stay at Alivio again? "No". Would we recommend Alivio as a place to stay, "No"
Wattle glen cabins are old and need a good clean. Floors were dirty, bathroom filthy. Beds weee rock hard Caravan park is amazing though. Staff wonderful and very kind and helpful

Bed mattress was old spring mattress with no give and very hard. Ironing board was lopsided and iron leaked water everywhere.
More attention to finer details would make the stay more enjoyable. Could’ve booked much cheaper elsewhere so was disappointed at quality.
The staff were fantastic. Very accomodating. Two times I asked for things and the staff went above and beyond to help. The park as a whole is amazing for families and we will be returning. We liked that the property was clean and had everything we required. We didnt like that it looked tired/old. The smart TV in bedroom xould not access the apps i.e Netflix. There was no smart TV in lounge. On longer stays this would have been an inconveninece. In summary great park, great facilities and amazing staff.
Really friendly staff but unfortunately our cabin was not cleaned, with towel on the bathroom floor still and bedding not changed. Thankfully the staff were amazing and organized another cabin which was much better but still had rubbish in the bin, and that made us question if it had been cleaned.
Loved the tranquil surroundings and activities on offer, however rec room activities were mostly broken/damaged or missing pieces. The addition of the warm spa was great given the weather was warm but not quite pool ready.
