I booked for a week but only stayed 3 nights. We didn’t like driving in a tunnel car park entrance that people also had to walk in and out of to get to their rooms.

The ocean view studio is perfect - sitting right over the beach and with a little kitchenette. It’s an older resort but they keep it well maintained. The pool has beautiful day beds and tables so you can relax after a day at the beach! They don’t do turtle friendly lighting though, which was surprising given the location. Other hotels on the beach have a lights-out policy but ours was brightly lit all night. But the staff are super friendly and it's a short walk to Bargara main street, so it's hard to beat!

Stayed in the 3brm executive room and it was perfect! Newly renovated and a perfect home away from home. We were so comfortable in this space. It was beautifully presented, clean, and our entertaining area overlooking the pool was amazing. The shared area overlooking the beach was amazing!

room was clean and tidy, however very old and no air con in the bedroom. We had people sitting outside our kitchen window till late at night eating dinner. It was not private at all. not great access and hard walking up stairs with alot of luggage. staff were very nice. we couldn't get our car underneath either, so had to leave it outside.
