NRMA Treasure Island Holiday Resort

We only stayed for one night at this resort but tried to make the most of it while we were there. It was a last minute booking so lucky to pick up a 2 bedroom villa at last minute. The rooms were pretty good, great air conditioning and good amount of room. We attempted to have dinner on the deck but got eaten alive by mosquitoes. Air conditioning was very effective. Big screen tv (probably too big given how close the lounge was but better too big than too small!!!) Beds were super soft but after a long day, nothing could have stopped us sleeping!!! We used the mini golf course, pools, spas, bouncing pillow and go karts while we were there. The go karts were an unexpected expense (had thought that they were included given everything else was) but the kids had a ball on them. The showers were good pressure and so wonderfully hot. We didn’t use kids club but saw some of the activities they were doing and looked great for the kids. We had breakfast there also - meals were generous size and very nice. Great way to start the day. Most of the staff were really friendly and helpful. We did find that the noise of music and PA system at night interferes with children trying to sleep. It was finished by 830pm but one of our children were really annoyed by it despite us being quite away from the area. The sliding door to the children’s room also didn’t slide properly which contributed to further issues with sleep (unable to block out light from the main area where parents were watching tv). Parking beside the villa was generous size, allowing plenty of room for loading and unloading people and bags etc. Generous sized fridge (which we didn’t really use other than keeping drinks and water cold). We went to the local fish and chips place at the “beach” (on the recommendation of reception staff) and it was exceptional value - highly recommend. They also do pelican feeding at the fish and chip place at 130pm which we missed but the pelicans were all still around when we went there. The beach wasn’t so great so we just hung out at the pools at the resort which were fantastic. Each of the pools had its own pros and cons so something for everyone - quiet pool areas / little kids areas (with water buckets) / slide into the pool / spas etc. It is the sort of place you could really stay for days for family holidays however the cost is prohibitive for us to do this during peak season. Great place for kids to take their scooters or bikes, too (which we didn’t). There is a lot of road traffic around the resort however given there are so many kids on bikes / karts / scooters, there is plenty of room and patience between vehicles and kids. On arrival, we were advised that the resort was fully booked. Whilst it was obviously really busy, it didn’t seem that way with staff always smiling and friendly and so many different options that there were plenty of places around the resort to share without feeling like it was too packed and busy. Thanks for a great short getaway!! Ticked so many great boxes that made kids’ holiday before returning to school.
