Banana Coast Caravan Park

Faeces all over the amenities, please do not stay it is unhygienic and unsafe. I booked a powered site for 3 nights. The first night the amenities were filthy, faeces was in the hand basins, children's bath, in each of the 4 shower cubicles and all over the floor. It was too late to book somewhere else so we stayed one night with the hope staff would clean the facilities in the morning. To my pleasant surprise, they had cleaned the amenities early the next morning. However, when I went in for a shower before midday each cubicle still had faeces in it. I went to reception where the staff kindly stated they would clean it again and set down rodent traps. I returned to the amenities after 5 pm to find after 2 cleans by the cleaners there was still a lot of faeces on the floor and shower tap, see pictures below post cleaning. After this discovery, my partner and I contacted after hours and informed them we needed to check out and we requested a refund. We were informed that reception and staff on site have no authority to give refunds and that I must email the owner directly with my complaint and request. Both myself and reception staff have emailed said owner multiple times over a 3-week period without a reply to either of us. The staff even attempted to phone while I was on-site but the owner's phone was turned off. I find the owner's treatment of staff and customers appalling. His park is run down, unhygienic and unfit for purpose. Had I known how filthy it was I would have never booked our stay. There are many cleaner safer caravan parks in Coffs for an extra $8, do yourself and favour and avoid at all costs.

Lady at reception was lovely and very welcoming. We stayed in a cabin and paid $110 for one night. Definitely not worth that. The park itself is a bit rough and ragged and could use some major updating. The car park next to cabin is tiny and we barely fit our van in so parked up behind our cabin instead. Couch was dirty with stain on it. It did have good kitchen facilities though. Tiny tv mounted way up on the wall. No blind or thick curtain on kitchen window so at night anyone can see in including the people in cabin next door, preferring my privacy I had to place a towel over the window. Budget accommodation should have been budget price. Probably wouldn’t go back there again unless it had a major revamp.

Where to begin! So old it should be bulldozed… Disgusting, tiny tiny cabins, horribly old furniture, omg…absolutely reeked of Detol to thebpoint where my eyes burned… except the bed linens, which stunk of dogs. Noisy! Give this dump a miss…even if it means sleeping in your car! Wish I had!

Booked a deluxe villa down away from highway put into no 13 just behind office driveway so small and awkward Double bed ok BUT 2 bunks which my 59 year old daughter was to have had permanent bars and would have to crawl into and may be pull her out by legs I went to office to complain was told I could be upgraded (we already paid for deluxe) for extra $35 I refused and the women finally said we could have villa 17 but would cost $7! The money was not the problem just that we were expected to accept a cheap version of what we paid for neither was above 2 stars rating

Stayed in cabin 19 with 2 rooms (5 beds and sofa for a 6th person) Likes - affordable - close to big banana - rooms are clean and cabin is spacious enough - pool, tennis court & playground - laundry facilities, which we did not use - AC, fridge, freezer, cooktop, microwave, kettle, plates, cutlery etc provided - very friendly receptionist on arrival Dislikes - driveway beside cabin can get muddy when wet Overall, very happy with our 2-night stay. Would stay here again

Arrived for late check in, got into cabin and it smelt stale, sheets were stained, lounge was covered in black marks, window curtains for mouldy, there was a booger on night stand next to bed. We left 3 hours later and continued trip. Absolutely appalled and never will stay again.

Everything there was very old. The cabin was very smelly after some cleaning chemicals. The bed linen were dirty. The TV set was so high that you could not watch it. We will never come to you again.

Easy to get to and easy to check in - even after office hours. As an adult, it was difficult to get into the top bunk without anything to hold onto on the left side. Very clean and tidy cabin. Would stay again.

Was very clean friendly staff. Great for our dogs. All round well worth it close to tourist things.
