Tripadvisor Oct 2018 Kate C, “I stayed with my two children for 1 night, during the school holidays. It was excellent value for money. The terrace cabin was clean and newly refurbished. The king bed was comfortable and I heard no complaints about the bunk. The cabin had reversed cycle airconditioning and a pod coffee machine….with pods. This place is close to the uow innovation campus, along with the science centre/planetarium and inflatable world…for the kids. I wld not hesitate in recommending this place for a budget option for families visiting wollongong. Its within a 10 minute drive of the cbd, or if u are very keen, a 20 minute cycle along the forefront cycle/walking track.”
Tripadvisor Oct 2018 Bernard G Great place to stay. “This place is fantastic. We booked online while traveling to Wollongong and it was so easy. Once there we were made most welcome and were given easy directions to the local pub for tea. The rooms were spotless and well priced. They stated that the next day they were expecting 650 campers to arrive for the school holidays. Wow this place is popular. They also had cabins close to the beach which looked fantastic. We are planning to go back again for a longer stay.”

Google Oct 2018 Te Nui “We stayed in Standard Bed Room 93, as soon as we walked in I loved it! We had an actual bedroom with a extra double bed and door, double bunk in the hallway, a very hospitable kitchen with all the extras you dont think to pack ie pots frypans chopping board containers for food storage, cutlery and dinner plates, bowls down to saucers, glass & coffee cups as well as wine glasses. The fridge/freezer was so spacious we did a shop at Aldi after we arrived saving us from spending out and we cooked dinner lunch and brekky everyday. The best thing about it was after the drive up there were coffee tea hot chocolate salt pepper sachets available so we could enjoy a hot cuppa while settling in. There was 2 mini milks in the fridge to start us off. The lounge had a sofabed that fit me and all the kids while we were watching telly and a corner chair. The balcony was a nice lil surprise and there were benches and bbqs we could use outside to have brekky in the sun. Even though it was raining, the option was great having all the kids in one space. Btw the space was so functional for us we didnt wanna leave to come back to our house 5 times the size. Lol. The neighbours and the cabins were quiet of a night you could hear a pin drop if the telly wasnt on. Bike hire, tennis hire, putt putt golf, basketball court, playgym for the babies and the best was the free indoor heated pool that has both spas and a sauna which we could access from 9 until 9 at night. (Schooldays availability is different I was told) 5 min drive to Aldi, Coles.. 8 mins to all the major Takeaway food outlets. 15 min drive to the Buddhist Temple and 25 min drive from there to Shell harbor beach for some fresh Fish and Chips that were decent family size proportions. We are Islanders so that was a big tick. 🙂 Its so central that it only took us over an hr to get there from Sydney. Highly Highly recommend this place. The standards are above and beyond and no one bothers you so it really does feel like a home away from home. Next time we will stay longer. Thankyou Wollongong Surf Leisure Resort for making ur a pleasant stay for us. We appreciate it and will definitely be back soon. 🙂 When I left, the receptionist wished us a safe trip back so keep up the great work guys. Love this place!”

Access to the beach to relax and practice some mindfulness exercises before getting into business. Overall it was a great choice. I haven’t experienced the cafe/shop as lunch was catered and delivered to us.”
Facebook May 2018 Gail Prince, “I was a winner of their Mother’s Day comp. Must say, although it was cold and drizzling rain, we loved it. The cabin was clean, fresh, full kitchen and king size bed with bunks. Will definitely be back as didn’t get to play mini golf or walk to beach. Staff were lovely. I’ve messaged my family and friends and we’ll definitely be here again. Thank you soo much for choosing me as a winner. I loved it.”
