Comfortable beds, beautiful location, it’s quiet and peaceful and the staff are lovely and very friendly and accommodating.
The beach is only 2 minutes walk from the property. It was incredibly clean and well kept. You have the use of a full kitchen just across the way that’s shared with other glampors. Little patio outside is lovely too. The company offer transfers and different activities if you fancy and the shop does fantastic food and sells alcohol and other frequently needed supplies.
Because it’s a Glamping pod, there’s no outlets. There’s electricity but nowhere to plug in, which is because it’s all solar generated power and can’t handle high amp devices. But just be aware. There are sockets in the kitchen area however.
The pods do get cold in the night (I visited in July) I found that I had to sleep with a hoodie to stay warm on one of the nights, and there’s no heater inside. The bathrooms have an open area which do attract mosquitos, so that’s a concern for obvious reasons. The area is very remote, so if you don’t have a 4x4 then you won’t be able to do much. I anticipated a possible walk but it would have been full days walking to get to the nearest attraction and back on foot.
Only a small point but the pods don’t have any lamps or low light. They have one industrial size fluorescent light which is super bright or complete darkness. Not a huge deal but something I found irritating when lying in bed wanting to read.

Facilities were good. Camp kitchen is great. Hot showers are fantastic.
Fish processing facility was noisy until midnight. This was because we stayed in mullet season.

The location was perfect! Stones throw from the beach and some ship wrecks you can snorkel around. The accomodation was clean, spacious and had everything we needed! The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable of the island! The store downstairs has everything you could possibly want or need when on holiday or camping plus delish coffees/ hot chocolates and breakfast and lunch menu! The new owner has done an awesome job to the place, will definitely be back again to stay!

Very nice room and everything was very clean. Everything you need is already there. Only need to bring your food and clothes. The staff and owners were excellent and helpful. From picking our baggage up on the shore to helping us when our boat came loose and got smashed on the shore. They didn't hesitate to help when we had no idea what to do next. Not only was the staff excellent but the community was very supportive. It was an excellent weekend despite the big loss.

The staff were amazing, went above and beyond to ensure comfort!
The glamping tents are due for a decent clean. The roof of our tent was covered in spider webs and moulding

So close to the beach, camp kitchen was great, parking was easy, and signs to the location made it easy to find when coming in of the beach
Poor WiFi, which is great for a holiday, not great if you are trying to work remotely. My tip turn off and enjoy the beautiful surroundings
9.0
the unit was clean and comfortable and perfect for a short stay. close to the beach and a small store for supplies if needed.The camp kitchen was roomy and well stocked with organised shelves for each glamp numbered.
There is no storage in them but that’s not a big negative as like most people we kept our clothes packed in travel bags anyway. great bathroom. There is a small opening at the back of the shower that could be screened to keep out bugs at night but we managed by keeping the doors closed. They are fully screened except for this area which could be easily done.

The grounds were lovely
Mould was on all the glamping tents . Very basic accommodation. Dirty in the camp
Kitchen . Some staff were quite rude others lovely .. overall really disappointing
5.0
Location very good
Shop hours are not very long and very pricey. Washing machine didn't work. Lights in deck of glamping tent didn't work. No mirror in ensuite. Several of the gas burners on the cook top in camp kitchen don't work. Mould on some of the utensils in the camp kitchen. Lights in the camp kitchen either not working or that full of bugs, very little output.
7.0
The property was in a good location, nice and close to the Bulwer shops.
The rooms were sandy, there was only one roll of toilet paper for a 4 person two night stay , and the pictures were of a different room, so it wasn’t as expected.

Pretty much everything
Needed more blankets- was a little chilly throughout the night

Location was good
There was no toilet paper provided! This is not acceptable.
There was an adjoining room door that could be opened even though we were not sharing with the family in that room so very poor security for us and them.
The kitchen did not have a toaster.

Location was great and property well maintained
One morning we woke at 4am with a loud noise that continued for 5- 10 minutes behind our tent
