We had an incredible family holiday at this resort! The spacious accommodations and multitude of activities for kids made it a perfect getaway. The private access to the beach was a major highlight, but we did face a safety concern with the ladder in the room due to a random pole. Overall, it was an amazing stay that exceeded our expectations.

We had a mixed experience at West Beach Parks. The resort offers a great range of activities for families and is very close to the beach, making it a fun spot for kids.

What a wonderful experience we had during our stay! The resort is perfect for families, with plenty of kids around for my daughter to make friends. The amenities are top-notch, and we couldn’t help but enjoy the lagoon pool and the stunning sunsets on the beach. While we had an incredible time, the dining options were somewhat limited, and the rooms could use a little work regarding safety with their ladders. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend it and can’t wait to come back.

We had a great experience at West Beach Caravan Park, especially with our grandson. The park offers fantastic amenities like a heated pool, playgrounds, and access to a beautiful beach, making it a perfect family destination. However, some cabins were not up to par in terms of cleanliness, which was disappointing considering the price we paid. Overall, it’s a family-friendly spot with lots to do, but be aware that not all accommodations may meet expectations.

Our stay was enjoyable, especially for families, as the park offered plenty of activities and was very clean. The cabins, while tidy, had some issues like ants and could use an upgrade given the price. The proximity to the beach is a fantastic perk, making it easy for us to enjoy the outdoors. However, some aspects, especially regarding security and wristband policies, could be better managed for a smoother experience.
