We had a very delightful stay at your holiday park the place was very well looked after and our room was really nice thank you for looking after us you guys might be lucky enough to see us again 😁
I found the staff of Halifax very friendly and responsive to our requests. They also offered good advice on places to see and things to do. The park is very close to shopping and beaches. The Diggers club is within walking distance if you want somewhere to go for a meal in the evenings also.

It was our first visit to Nelson Bay, nature is fascinating, lots of activities around to get engaged in, shopping is near by which was great. The only constructive feedback that I would like to share is that property needs renovations, not decently cleaned when we received the key.
Our cabins were great and spacious. The park was clean and a great location! We will be back :)

The 4 days were lovely, and the staff were excellent and very helpful. The only problem was the Wi-Fi which had intermittent dropouts, was slow and had to be signed into everyday, which was a bit annoying.
The cleanliness of the accommodation.
Nothing to dislike

Great place to have a family holiday with the kids
The weather was amazing. Staff where very friendly and helpful before and during our stay. It was a great place to take the kids, walking distance to the beach, great spot to go fishing board paddling. The place was clean and very modern.
We enjoyed our stay here it was close to the beach which was convenient especially when you have kids. The cabin is outdated and needs to be upgraded. Otherwise overall it was good
I especially like the location between two beaches

I booked a water view cabin but did not get one.No view at all but the cabin was great.We really had a great time . that was the only hiccup.They said at check in there were no more available and its because I booked with Hotels.com that there is no guarantee .I did not realise this.But over all brilliant holiday .Great location.
