Great stay.
There is everything you want from a resort.
Breakfast was fantastic, with a chef making omelets and other dishes on demand, fresh juice machine, etc...
Only 1 hour drive from downtown Brisbane.

Room great, service exceptional, location awesome ……. Only “complaint ” would be the lack of table staff option in the lagoon bar. Appreciate its casual dining but as a family of four ordering, with the arrival timing of different meals, different flow rate for guests, any additions required…. Every interaction involved leaving the table and standing in a long line at the bar. Disrupted a family meal quite a lot.

Clean room and great size. Staff were great and breakfast superb. Love the lagoon pool and plenty of lounges around the pool except a lot of people putting towels on lounges early to hold them and then returning 2 hours later to use them. Doesn’t seem fair
