For tariff and safety purposes, we appreciate guests’ honesty declaring the number of guests staying.  We permit 4 guests including children in a 2-bedroom unit, 5 guests including children in a 2-bedroom Riverview Unit and 6 including children in a 3-bedroom unit. There may be a few occasions where we consent to 5 in a 2-bedroom unit and 7 in a 3-bedroom unit and accordingly charge a fee for the additional guest and this is at our absolute discretion. If a guest/occupant allows more than the stipulated number of people in their apartment they will be asked to vacate the apartment immediately with NO refund.

Parking on Resort Grounds

Each unit has one designated undercover car space. Additional vehicles are to be parked in the streets surrounding the resort, or in visitor parking.

Guest Requests

Guests are important to us and we try to meet our guests’ requests.  While requests for unit location and style or specific unit numbers are welcome, regretfully the resort is not able to guarantee requests.

Noisy, unruly behaviour will not be tolerated in or around the complex after 9pm, especially in the pool area. Management reserves the right to terminate occupancy for inappropriate behaviour in apartments or around the complex.

Guests Over 18

Guests must all be over 18 years unless they are travelling with a legal guardian or parent and the definition we apply is as per the Queensland Liquor Act 1992. School leaver celebrations are unable to be booked at this resort and we advise that entry will be refused, and any payment forfeited.
