The cabin was nice. To get to them you have to walk on a boardwalk above the ground. I noticed they had ramps so it is wheel chair friendly. The food was very good but very pricey $125pp for 3 course dinner. I had to ask if you were not a big eater what is the alternative. I normally just have an entree but I felt like they would think I was Penny pinching so I ordered a main $60. Didn’t finish it but it was tasty. There are only 3 choices of entree, main & desserts and they don’t change every night in fact possibly not even every week. So if you stay more than 2 nights you may not be happy eating the same meal. There is no where else for dinner so a captured audience .Breakfast was included and good also a pre dinner drink and canapés were included in the room price. We had a nice stay but glad it was only 2 nights. Even 1 would have been ok.

the location was great, very clean & well maintained. i have lots of allergies so remote travels sometimes can be difficult but the chefs accommodated me really well and exceeded all expectations! the food at this place is fantastic, can easily compete with some of the best Melbourne Crown Casino restaurants! one thing that was quite annoying is that we were not allowed to smoke on the balcony, yet the room had an ashtray. i understand not everyone likes the smell of smoke but i have never stayed at a hotel where you are required to walk to a pool side to have a cigarette when your room has a balcony (and we are very seasoned travelers with some of the world's best resorts in our experience). overall it was a great experience and the best place to stay around the area.
