Tent was well set up Great bed, shower & toilet room Very good outside table & chair area Kitchenette was functionally good Location was great at Pinky's beach Bar & TV screen area was very good

No real security in tent as no locks on tent flap zips, allowing easy access for intruders Bacon was not properly cooked & cooked breakfast was nowhere near standard of a top hotel yet I paid a six star hotel price for superior tent Food quality outlet was also mediocre Tent was noisy with canvas rubbing against bed

Absolutely everything. Clamping in style and comfort. Went with our two granddaughters and parents. The kids enjoyed the freedom, biking, pool and fantastic breakfast. Their tent was only a stone throw from our tent. The beds were the most comfortable beds on all our international travels. Living on the beach in Perth we loved to hear the sound of the waves and enjoyed the breeze in the tent and walking just a few steps down to the beach. Tent isn’t really the right choice of description. A big thanks to all the staff, from reception to every single staff member. You’re a great team and made us to come back again.

Couldn’t find any fault

Perfect location, was upgraded. Staff super friendly and accommodating.

Only issue was the bed. Sort of sunk on my side. Apart from that it was perfect

Great breakfast with amazing pastries! Pool is great, especially for children when you have had enough of the beach or just for a quick dip on a hot day. Great location. Walking distance from the ferry. Walking distance to the main shopping street. Beautiful native quokkas all around. Pinky Beach right next to you. Comfortable beds (mattresses and pillows) Kitchenette has a coffee machine and a fridge. It's very handy to keep your water/drinks cold on a hot day. You'll get the basics (towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion). The bathroom also has ear plugs, a hair-dryer, a box of tissues, and a disposable shower cap. You also get a pool/beach towel per person. I wish I knew that so I didn't have to drag extra towels.

I booked a Superior family tent, and we were given the accessible 🦽 superior family tent. Someone might see it as a benefit, we didn't. The tents are great and spacious, but it does feel like you are holidaying with the people next to you. You can hear everything. We had a toddler in the tent next to us, who woke up screaming until he self-settled. He woke up all of us, including my children. Discovery resort is on top of keeping quiet after 10 pm, and you can ring a number. We didn't ring them, though, as there is nothing one could really do. Babies/little children usually don't cry all night. The pool lounges are dirty. Could do with a clean. Some smudged food/snot is visible on all of them.

Travelling with a ceoliac daughter, the kitchen made a real effort to prepare her meals separately and fresh for breakfast which was fantastic and appreciated. The eco tents were quirky and private, with clean, modern bathrooms and a balcony. We had a family tent. Beds were comfortable. Bunks were small, though, so I wouldn't suggest them for anyone over 12.

The check in process was far from ideal. Arrived at 11am and was asked to wait for a text message to return earlier as rooms were almost ready. Never received a text and waited until after 2:30pm to get access. Then, I was asked to check out promptly at 10 am sharp. Ate at Pinkys. Food was reasonable, but one of our meals never turned up. The staff were apologetic.

Originally booked a standard tent. Got a complimentary upgrade to a family one. The location was perfect, full access to the beach club, full secluded beach access, pool facilities with bar service, the included breakfast was just amazing!!! The room/tent was so clean, amazing beds and bathroom facilities. Complimentary nespresso in kitchen. Eventhough tents are near each other still a sense of privacy.

With the upgrade of our room we weren't given a key so it was a bit of a struggle to get into the room. And made a bit if a hiccup with check out but that's on us as well for not asking. At breakfast the mugs for warm drinks were a bit small for the amount that came out of the coffee machine, which ended up being a bit of a mess. My partner was also excited for an omelette with the breakfast buffet but didn't have that service. Overall food was delicious.

I actually became ill during my stay here (nothing to do with the resort). The staff were exceptional at getting me help when needed and arranged transport for me to the mainland to see a doctor. The island is a tropical paradise. There were plenty of fish to see. Sadly a lot of the coral was bleached so a trip to the outer reef would be better for dive enthusiasts but it is still beautiful on the house reef. I only booked the cheapest room but it was modern and spacious. The food at the main restaurant was of a very high standard and not bad value for the quality that you get.

The only minor let down was that the bed frame had a thick layer of dust in all visible areas which was a bit off putting. The breakfast was pretty mediocre and probably a bit overpriced for what is actually on offer. For example, i v had better at budget airport hotels.

Having the experience of camping but with the perks of a hotel room (beds and bathroom) was what led us to book here. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Facilities are well maintained. The location is a bit of a walk from the jetty but short distance to the two beautiful beaches (Pinky beach and The Basin). Renting or bringing your bicycle makes the journey to the town centre/settlement easier. Please be aware, that there is no air conditioning in the tent (only fan) so it does get hot in the summer but we spend those hot middays swimming instead.

The glamping accommodation was lovely. Clean and spacious, but for 3 adults , sisters, the bunk bed was childsize. Bathroom and kitchen lovely with everything necessary for a very comfortable stay. Cafe/bar overlooking the Indian Ocean and lighthouse was absolutely gorgeous with great selection of cocktails. Breakfast excellent and beautifully served. Great choice of food from full english to continental. All three of us would certainly return although the cost per night, $576, even in the Spring months, is quite high.

The dinner we ordered. Decided to stay on sight for dinner and, as we only wanted a small meal, we ordered Kids Fish and Chips. Whilst the fish was lovely, our chips were lukewarm and soggy. Some seemed leftovers and refried whilst others didn't seem to have been fried enough. It seemed both had been mixed together. Uggh. Reported this to two wait staff, but no reply from management. All three of us left our chips and decided to eat elsewhere the following day. Disappointing.

Location, the room (kitchenette and bathroom were lovely), the poolside lounges & bar. *best pina colada I've had in a long time! The staff, everyone was lovely, special mention to the guys delivering luggage (and pick up), all the breakfast staff and Michele in the poolside bar.

Lack of security for zipper doors, lack of ac (though I wasn't expecting it, but for the price it would be tough in the height of summer), lack of headboard for the pillows to not slip between canvas and bed. Lack of security for bag pick up (felt unsafe leaving them outside for 10am pick up, when anyone on the island can walk through the holiday park). The price, as someone who likes to camp, this was a nice halfway between camping and hotel, but not for 3 times the price of a hotel per night.
