Attended conference for 3 days and was most impressed with the efficient and unobtrusive staff in all areas of the resort. Slightly robot like and mostly asian these folk checked you in , cleaned rooms , waited on tables etc etc. The only negative feedback from many of us at the conference was that the resort had difficulty in prodvding... more

We stayed 8 nights at Couran Cove and didn't want to leave. Check-in was prompt and we loved our room which was modern, clean and fully air-conditioned (which we definately needed). Our view was of the bay and surrounds. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food at the restaurants was great, and the coffee decent, too. The place is so isolated... more

What a delight to discover Couran Cove resort whilst sailing past on our way to Sydney. Having absolutely no idea the resort existed we rang reservations from outside the marina and asked if we could hire a berth for our yacht for the night. We were told only if you take a room which we agreed and were extremely happy... more

We had a great relaxing holiday with our 3 & 5 year old. Highlights: huge kids' swimming pool, riding everwhere, great playground, kayaking, wildlife, free ranger talk Lowlights: eating out with kids (limited selection of options for young kids), leisure areas a touch run down. Overall, a restful holiday. The marine suite was highly suitable apart from an impractical kitchenette,... more

We decided to venture across to the island for an overnight stay in early September. We had previously stayed at this resort for family holidays in mid-2005 and January 2006, when we were living interstate. We had fond memories of an eco-resort with a wealth of family-friendly activities, which also offered the luxuries of a day spa, kids club, good... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a night at the end of March in a Marine Deluxe room - you know the ones they advertise as right on the water - well only half of them are in the water, the rest are right in front of the water on the sand. We were given a room on the... more

Our family stayed at Couran Cove resort for a week over Christmas. I had read all the reviews on this property prior to booking, so in light of some of them, was slightly anxious. My hesitation proved to be totally unfounded and I can say we had a fantastic holiday and would definitely go back. We all enjoyed different aspects... more

We had three days on Couran Cove and loved it! Those people who are complaining about having to walk to the shop or the beach or think that facilities are too far away, should just stay in a hotel that is built above a shopping mall ie: The Sheraton Mirage. Couran cove is great, but if you dont want to... more

We stayed last year, but I have only just found this site and felt I must warn others not to stay there. We stayed for 7 nights in a lagoon suite. The airconditioning was barely working and it was noisy with the neighbours being able to see and hear everything they did on their balcony at anytime they were there.... more
