Great place, everything you needed pool,spa,bikes,paddel boards,kayaks, a club for dinner all at your fingertips. Staff were amazing and friendly. I had a little medical episode while staying there. I was taken to hospital buy ambulance, and they looked after my partner very well and came and saw me the next day to see if I was alright. Highly recommend this hotel and will be back

I had a wonderful stay at Shoal Bay Holiday Park! The tent was clean and well-maintained, making for a comfortable experience. Being close to nature, I stepped out of the tent at night and was greeted by a sky full of stars. Plus, having the convenience of parking my car right next to the tent was a great bonus. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway.

    We liked our villa, very comfortable, the camp kitchen was the best we have seen. The grounds and amenities were great, reception staff very friendly. We did not find anything to complain about. We had some great meals close to the holiday park. Easy walking to the shops in the Main Street .

    The location is perfect, across the road from the beach, walk to the pub and restaurants. Plus all the resort facilities are great. The shower over the bath in most of the rooms is very high to get in and out of, with no handle to hold on to!

    Overall shoal bay is a very relaxing place to stay, like most popular destinations it’s wise to book into into restaurants at popular times like summer I haven’t been up that way for a break for awhile and the fact that you have to pay to park in a lot of places when some of the streets are horrendous to drive on just doesn’t seem right, they want tourists to go to these destinations but aren’t giving them any incentives to do so

    This house exceeded our expectations, it had everything you needed and the central location made it the perfect spot to grab coffee or grab a bite to eat. Only 500m from the beachfront meaning it was a quick walk for a morning dip. The absolute perfect property when visiting shoal bay.
