Where to begin.. Upon ringing to make a booking I noticed the prices for a sea view cabin where much more than advertised on the website. When asking why the response was "there must be something on this weekend". I downgraded to a family cabin and this was a little more in our price range (still much higher than the... More

The vibe this place gives off is really creepy. This was the last place that we stayed at during our time in SA and it was far and away the least friendly reception staff that we encountered, worst location and most run down, old facilities but also the most expensive!!! Never again will we visit Whyalla, my advise: keep driving... More

Having read some of the comments on Tripadvisor I was a bit nervous about booking a cabin, but as options for two bedroom places in Whyalla were limited I went ahead. I was not sorry! The cabin overlooked the beach, it was very clean and had everything we needed. The view was spectacular. The staff on check in and out... More

Stayed in one of the park cabins (standard family @ $95.00 per night), lucky we only booked for 1 night. The cabin was old and worn out and whilst not unclean it was very grubby (finger marks over the walls etc) - nothing a good spring clean and some TLC wouldn't fix. Very poor quality considering the price (more of... More

We have stayed at several TopTourist parks and enjoyed the high standards. This one may very well be OK but we never found out because we arrived at 6.15pm to find the office reception closed and a sign telling customers that there is a $50 fee for late arrival. How rude!

We stayed here for one night in a campervan, not knowing what to expect. It was appealing right from the front desk. The owner was very friendly and answered all our questions, inlcuding where we should have dinner, and even gave us a free stubby holder as we told her we would be collecting them along the way.
