This shop is AMAZING, it has everything you need for making cakes and decorating them and even things I didn't know existed. The lady that served me was friendly and very knowledgeable and offered advice and tips on my cake making and decorating. Definitely worth a visit next time you have a cake to make or decorate

I love the Sharks club, the staff are nice and friendly and the food is delicious. The décor and atmosphere is really nice; there is a lovely big deck looking out over the footy field, there are different bars and areas to eat and/or drink and it is very family friendly. Frenzy's foodcourt is my favourite place to eat and suits my family perfectly as you have the option to have the buffet or order a la carte. The breakfast buffet is amazing including this really cool pancake machine that is always popular. The kids club is fully supervised and great value, there is playstations, mini rock climbing, mini basketball, TVs and other games, the kids love it. Mackenzies sports bar is fantastic for a drink and has a lovely outdoor area to enjoy too.

We attended a half day trip to South Stradbroke Island (McLarens Landing) including lunch. The boat trip over to the island was very enjoyable and the staff are attentive and friendly. Lunch was nice a range of fresh salads, bread rolls and meat on the BBQ. Entertainment was provided during lunch, the young man was excellent, he could sing and he was funny. There is a bar on the boat and on the island, the facilities at McLarens Landing are a bit tired and could do with a coat of paint but everything is certainly clean which is what really matters. We took advantage of the games and sports on offer, taking a speed boat ride, going on the kayaks and made use of the cricket set. Overall a great day and good value if you can get a discount coupon like we did!

Approximate cost: $50-$80

This resort is stunning; it is set in the midst of nature, amongst a rainforest there are boardwalks throughout the resort to help you enjoy the scenery and provide a short stroll down to the beach. The staff are absolutely amazing and live up to the resorts 5 stars; they accommodated every crazy request that we had and always with a smile. The food was beautiful, local produce and certainly deserves their 5 star rating.
The value is what you would expect of a 5 star resort and the staff made it even more worth while.

The service was awesome, all staff were very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere and decor are very nice and there is a wide range of options of the menu. It is a seafood restaurant but I ordered steak which was a bit overcooked and the profiteroles for desert were definitely not freshly made. The value was as expected, the restaurant is not known for value. Overall I enjoyed the evening and would go there again and order differently.
