Koala Shores Holiday Park

What guests think

At Koala Shores Holiday Park, guests frequently praise the peaceful waterfront setting, family-friendly vibe, and handy park amenities, while opinions diverge on cabin upkeep, with several reports of dust, insects, musty smells, and tired fittings alongside many clean, comfortable stays.

Staff are often described as friendly and check-in is easy, though a few noted difficulty finding assistance or felt issues like missing advertised features were poorly addressed. Families value the pool, grounds, and activities, plus fishing access, but there were isolated mentions of a closed pool, pricey laundry, and unclear recycling. Expect a scenic, quiet stay with variable cabin standards.

Overall, they had very nice amenities for a caravan park and felt the workers were sometimes scarce if they needed assistance. Would recommend it to anyone wanting a nice weekend get away on a budget.

Excellent service, location, fishing, camping and an overall beautiful quiet spot to stay. I loved the hospitality and friendly atmosphere the park had to offer. Our unit was a little worn and tired but other than that I had everything I needed. I rate it a 91/2 out of 10. Would most definitely recommend this park and I would stay there again.

I liked the cabin we were in. The place where it was situated and the water was close to go fishing a beautiful place to be. I would recommend it to anyone. It’s even close to a supermarket. We will certainly be back. The children had plenty to occupy themselves as well and they enjoyed every minute of it

The location was lovely and the pool was beautiful (unfortunately it was closed for maintenance on the day of our arrival). The lady who checked us in was friendly. The room itself was average at best. The fittings are in dire need of repair/replacement. Things like missing light globes, ants coming in through the wall, numerous small spiders on the ceiling and an exhaust fan in the bathroom which must have been at least thirty years old and didn’t appear to have been cleaned in that time were all disappointing. Hot water was limited, there were no regular channels on the TV and wifi was hit and miss. Our room was supposedly ‘superior’ but at $950 for two nights stay and in a room we really didn’t feel comfortable in at all, I don’t think represented good value at all. For people who are only in their room to shower and sleep, it might be OK but we were very glad to get home.

Cleanliness

Feedback is mixed: several guests reported dust, grime, insects, or musty smells, while others found cabins clean and tidy. Standards appear inconsistent between units.

There were cockroaches in the bathrooms, spiders throughout the cabin. Dead insects falling from the light fittings onto the bedding. Considering the price per night I would have expected a much more cleaner cabin and facilities. Would not stay here again.

The amenities could be improved, particularly when it comes to cleanliness. At first glance the cabin appears “clean,” but it quickly becomes clear that the standard may rely heavily on guests tidying up before departure, with staff mainly replenishing linens and toiletries. The overall space feels a bit tired and doesn’t smell fresh, which could be easily addressed with more thorough cleaning. The floors were dusty, corners had built-up crumbs, and the shower had some grime. I’d recommend bringing your own cleaning supplies and giving the place a quick clean so you’re not dealing with leftover dirt from previous guests.

Pro’s: easy after hour key pick up and drop off, lovely water view from cabin Cons: the cabin had a bad smell when we arrived, the double bed was not made when we got there - the clean sheets were on the dining table and the pillows/doona on the floor and shoved into the cupboard so we had to make the bed ourselves which we’ve never had to do at a holiday park, someone else’s hairs all over the bathroom walls, when entering the boom gate the keypad is so low you have to get out of the car to enter the number. Overall we couldn’t wait to get back home after this stay

I stayed in cabin no.6 on friday and saturday night which cost $340. For about the same price I could have stayed in a neighboring motel where my fellow worker could have access for his vehicle on both nights. I am not in the habit of doing this but I took photos of what I got for my $340. Both the ceiling fan and exhaust fan in bathroom had dust adhereing to them as they had not been dusted for a while. Dust compacted into corners of rooms and on "picture rails" Paint chips and flaking paint off cupboards, water damage to base of bath door. ALL taps in bathroom leak. (unless Hercules turns them off) I have recently stayed at your caravan section and was very happy with our stay but I will not be recommending the cabins. I consider all these deficiencies are management issues. As I was asked by your organisation to submit a review I raise these issues as a courtesy rather than complaint. You can do better

Rooms

Cabins are generally comfortable with pleasant water views and adequate amenities, but some feel dated with worn fittings, limited hot water, hit-and-miss Wi-Fi, and missing advertised features like a spa bath.

Wanted to blame Expedia but pre registration info from them still showed the spa bath. I would not have paid that daily rate if I had known I was not getting what was advertised. Very disappointed!
