Report
Should have read recent review, my bad. Recommend you don't book ahead and inspect before paying.
Having stayed at Harbour Lights a few times in our van, which was fine, my wife booked a cabin for herself and grandson, being close to the waterpark and foreshore walks. On arriving in the cabin, it was extremely hot so she switched on the air-conditioner but soon realised there was little cooling. She was told it was OK. The ac unit was filthy. After 2 hours the room was still unbearably hot. After being refused a refund, my wife moved to the Port Denison Motel (wonderful service).

Staff are friendly and helpful. Good services and 4 long blocks walk to the shops. Be prepared to drive or wait 30 minutes for a taxi. The pool is great except for the non defined steps into it and the sides are angled like this: \ / that makes it awkward to reach the edges. It's a G'Days park and directly opposite the water front. As long as one is stocked up, I would happily go back. Food and service at The North Australian pub was terrific.
