Green Hotels & Resorts in Kooringal from AU$155

"We had such a terrible stay that we left early, forfeiting the money we paid. The place was so overcrowded, with a cruise ship parked out front. Our hotel room had black mold in it and construction fencing and vehicles partially blocked our view of the beach. The walls were paper thin and we were kept up late and woken early by the sounds of other families talking (they weren't even being inconsiderate, the rooms were just so badly soundproofed). The layout of the resort was baffling, with glass perimeter fencing around lawns and cafes to prevent people from freely walking around. My four-year-old asked if we were at the airport when we were in the resort's main building, which gives you a sense of the design. The worst part was the food, which was borderline inedible. Everything was pre-packaged, deep fried in old oil, cooked from frozen (or all of the above). The prices were higher than a nice restaurant but the quality was worse than a service station. I realise this is an island and food needs to be brought in, but I have travelled to far more remote areas with nice things to eat, and the food here was inexcusable. This was the main reason we left, because there was literally nowhere to get a decent meal. The staff were very nice, but obviously it was beyond their power to fix this place. The whole experience was extremely upsetting considering we spent good money to come here. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!"
