Nrma Darlington Beach Holiday Resort

We stayed in the Gumnut villa which was absolutely horrible. The toilet was flooding the bathroom floor, the shower head in the ensuite was like being hosed by a fire hydrant. The toilet in the ensuite felt tiny, like it was meant for young children. There was an ants nest in the light above the master bed which was dripping ants and nest pieces on me throughout the night so we moved the bed out of the way. The fan in that room was vibrating so bad that it would shake more ants onto the bed. The aircon was working but I don't think the room was insulated so it was never enough. We had two fans running to try and push cool air into the kids room for the entire week we were there. The matresses felt absolutely horrible and felt like I was going to roll off the bed each time I move. There was some mould on the bedroom walls. The whole cabin was just old, outdated and very worn. The wifi hardly worked which was not so great because there was also no cell service in most of the park. Great if you want to have no connection but not so great when you need to use the internet to search for places to go and things to see in the area. Why am I giving it 4 stars? Because of Jan! The staff there were amazing! Jan tried to do everything in her power (and then some!) To try and help us out. She was incredible! The facilities were also great! Lots for the kids to do, direct beach access, kangaroos all over the place, pools, water play equipment, slides, tennis courts, archery, go karts, all great fun! The bikes are old and pretty run down so not worth renting. Thanks again to Jan! We hope to stay here again but in one of the more modern cabins (or in our own tent).

The most family friendly park. The activities for everyone are boundless. We had the use of an ensuite site. The bathroom was really large, they included a hand towel face washer bathmats and hand soap. But best of all the water was hot and there was a heat lamp, it was a really cold evening. The site was really large and easily accessible. The park has a very large green space where kangaroos freely roam. The pool,spa, jumping pillow, bowling green, outdoor tv screens and live entertainment area helped to make our stay very memorable. We are dinner in the onsite restaurant. We enjoyed panko Schnitzel and salad and chicken parmigiana and salad. There was also a pasta van, but I don't know how often they are there. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. Great place to gather in groups.
