Nrma Darlington Beach Holiday Resort

Great place to stay, not too far from the highway! Friendly staff were welcoming & smiling. Easy to follow explanation of how things worked & basic run down of rules! Small area to navigate, especially to walk around! All features & amenities are great , wit h all essential amenities provided , that you may require when staying away on a holiday!

NOT SAFE. We stayed 4 nights on a powered van site in November. We were placed on a site under gum trees and during the wind, a branch fell thru the awning roof. Fortunately, no one was injured. I made a claim to have the awning repaired but was informed by email that "Nrma Parks is not able to accept liability for loss or damage". Surely if they are going to place people in a dangerous position, they should accept responsibility, and use their insurance. I know a number of people that won't Camp there because of the danger from the gum trees above. Poor show NRMA.

We stayed in the Gumnut villa which was absolutely horrible. The toilet was flooding the bathroom floor, the shower head in the ensuite was like being hosed by a fire hydrant. The toilet in the ensuite felt tiny, like it was meant for young children. There was an ants nest in the light above the master bed which was dripping ants and nest pieces on me throughout the night so we moved the bed out of the way. The fan in that room was vibrating so bad that it would shake more ants onto the bed. The aircon was working but I don't think the room was insulated so it was never enough. We had two fans running to try and push cool air into the kids room for the entire week we were there. The matresses felt absolutely horrible and felt like I was going to roll off the bed each time I move. There was some mould on the bedroom walls. The whole cabin was just old, outdated and very worn. The wifi hardly worked which was not so great because there was also no cell service in most of the park. Great if you want to have no connection but not so great when you need to use the internet to search for places to go and things to see in the area. Why am I giving it 4 stars? Because of Jan! The staff there were amazing! Jan tried to do everything in her power (and then some!) To try and help us out. She was incredible! The facilities were also great! Lots for the kids to do, direct beach access, kangaroos all over the place, pools, water play equipment, slides, tennis courts, archery, go karts, all great fun! The bikes are old and pretty run down so not worth renting. Thanks again to Jan! We hope to stay here again but in one of the more modern cabins (or in our own tent).
