"We spent the Easter long weekend at Couran Cove and absolutely loved it!! It rained a few times but it didn't dampen our enjoyment of the resort. The range of activities were fantastic, and we loved hiring bicycles to get around the resort. Nothing was too far away and it made the holiday that extra bit special.
The only negative things are that the facilities probably are in need of updating, but are still enjoyable and fun to use. The bedding is too firm for our liking but the rooms were incredibly spacious and were beautifully located upon the lagoon.
All in all, the resort is a beautiful place and I highly recommend it. The staff were incredibly helpful everywhere we went and made the stay pleasing. The restaurant and general store prices were a bit expensive but you could probably expect that due to the island location.
A great holiday, thank you Couran Cove Island Resort!!!!" - Anonymous
"The booking was for four people but the unit only had provisions for two, e.g. towels. The daily cleaning was superficial. But the staff were very friendly, responsive and helpful." - Anonymous
"We had a very lovely stay. The only negative is that it would be nice to have a a la carte breakfast menu without having to order the Breakfast Buffet for $34pp" - Anonymous
"We really enjoyed our time away, we would definetly go again." - Phillip Monteith
