Holdens Bay Holiday Park

Exceptional

Very good

Overall worth the money and...

Liked: Family friendly property. Pool & spa available free of charge. On site laundry room with coin operated machines. The tv/games lounge. Park area.
Disliked: Probably a hit in miss moment but the bed linen in our unit had noticeably large food or drink stains at the foot of the single bed in the living area.

Nice affordable stay looked after...

Liked: Nice cabin, white and fresh and really appreciated having a frame for drying clothes
Disliked: Bathroom felt a bit dated

Very good

Great place to stay, but...

Liked: Friendly staff, really comfortable beds, and great to soak in the hot tub after a day riding.
Disliked: It's right next to a small plane landing strip, and those guys started early - like taking off right over us, before 7am! I would definitely stay here again though.

Convenient but getting tired.

Liked: We love the location and that’s close to the bike tracks and that there is just a little super down the road. The staff were friendly during check in. The hot tubs are a lovely addition.
Disliked: We came last year and had a cabin with its own toilet at the end of a veranda so I didn’t rely on the facilities so much. We thought it was great and everything was clean.This year, we just got a cabin on its own. We used the main toilet block. This was very dirty. Light bulbs weren’t working, soap wasn’t in the right containers and the lock on the door seem to be very unnecessary and such a pain in the wet rain, especially when it wasn’t working properly. My husband said the men’s toilet smell like vomit.I know it seemed to be wet everywhere at the time, but the cabin was very damp inside as well. Both times we have stayed in the school holidays and both times there has been a big group of young boys in a sports team. Both times we have been kept awake by these groups and there seems to be no one on site for noise control. Unfortunately, this has put us off staying again.

Nice Stay but Odd Kitchen...

Liked: Both of the cabins we stayed in were great, small but cosy and the overall park had a great atmosphere with lots of outdoor space.
Disliked: The staff weren't particularly friendly.We were shocked to go into the kitchen in the evening ready to cook our meal to find that there were no pans, plates, cutlery or any kind of kitchen utensil whatsoever. There was a notice on the wall stating that we could rent a 'kitchen box' for $15 from the reception which closed at 5pm! We had nothing at all to make food, not even a mug. Luckily a kind guest helped us out but we would have been utterly stuck otherwise.Whilst we were fully aware that we had booked the most basic level of cabin we were not informed of this kitchen situation and later stayed at a similarly priced holiday park where all kitchen utensils were included in the cabin.There was also poo on the floor of the women's bathroom for at least two days, initially there was a wet floor sign over it but when that got knocked over nothing was done about it and there was no one to report it to.
