Great place to go unwind and relax. Lovely family atmosphere. The cabins are cosy with plenty of sleeping space. Bbq area and playground for the kids in a safe secure environment. Highly recommend this place for a family holiday.

Unfortunately I will never ever stay here again! It was smelly and dirty. Kettle was gross and went to Kmart to buy a new kettle and cups, as the ones there were disgusting. Gas was not checked, so we had no gas and therefore had no hot water. Towels, curtains and bedding were also dirty and smelly. Thank goodness we brought our own bedding with us. Advertised wifi, but no wifi available. There were cobwebs everywhere, floors were dirty. Only one toilet roll supplied, missing bathroom basin plug.BBQ’s were disgusting and I refused to cook on it, as it would be a health hazard. I wouldn’t even stay here as a last resort. Extremely disappointed!

Im sorry about your bad experience, new managers have recently taking over the park and we have placed the parks condition as our top priority, these issues must have occurred before our arrival as im unaware of any cabins out of gas.

We paid $100 more than the other families who booked the same accomodation via Agoda website. Boo for wotif! We arrived at 4pm and room wasn’t even ready. We had to wait 3 more hours for the room! By the time we checked in, it was 7pm. No compensation whatsoever given. There 6 families altogether who stayed at the accomodation. 2 families got a newer cabin which was decent enough. The other 4 families including us got the older cabins. Old flooring, old furniture, old ceiling and the shower was horrible too. There was almost no hot water. It only pump 4 times and it lasted 2 minutes everytime the hot water was pumped. The entire place badly needs an upgrade. We wouldn’t recommend it at all. Also, use Agoda for booking not Wotif!

Thank you for your feedback. We are keen to look into this situation (no one should be staying in a dirty room) but unfortunately as you have reviewed anonymously we can't look up your booking. If you like, you can head to our website and leave your name (and cabin number if you can remember it). Were you able to see any staff member about this problem? If you choose to stay at any Acclaim Holiday Park again, feel free to head to the office and ask for assistance on any issue - our staff will do their best to fix it. Safe travels.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I must admit in some of our cabins the bunk beds are for children and not teenagers or adults. We love our beautiful and quiet location and we are so glad you enjoyed it also.

Stay for 1 week in one of the Chalets ( Dec 26th - Jan 1st). The Chalet has a very nice space, queen main bedroom and one small bedroom with two bunkers. Very nice place to stay with the family, all good maintenance, accessible to the Albany town and attractions and very handy petrol station and shop across the road.

Having a baker across the road who makes delicious pies is also a bonus although a bit of a temptation too! So glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again if you should come down our way.

Nice setting, how ever the chalet was very dusty especially in the kids bunk room and the kitchen was grimy around the sink. The chalet was very worn and needed a bit of an update and a good wipe down and clean out but the staff were lovely and helpful.

Thank you so much for letting us know your concerns. We are so sorry about the dust in your chalet. We had our hands full with a wind and dust storm just prior to the long weekend. No excuse though! We would love the opportunity to see you again in the future.

Pleasant Holiday Location
Had an enjoyable long weekend stay. Studio chalet was typically compact & cosy. Decor etc is old & in poor condition & mould was clearly evident in the bathroom. But, the shower was hot & strong and the bed was very, very comfortable. Very quiet & beautifully scenic location. The reception staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. Enjoyed my stay but for the price, the chalet needs an update.
Response from Carol - Manager on 20 Sept,2016
Hi Pete, Thanks for taking the time to let us hear about your stay with us. We have recently taken the time to go through and address the issues with the mould in a couple of our cabins and we now have this under control. We do have a very quiet location and our yard staff work hard to maintain our lawns and gardens. We hope that you would come and stay with us again if you in Albany.
