My wife and I have found our go-to spot in Wollongong! The Wollongong Surf Leisure Resort feels just like home, with spacious studio apartments featuring kitchens and convenient parking. The location is fantastic, close to the beach and with plenty of activities on site to keep our kids entertained. The only downside was the camp kitchen, which could use an upgrade, and the single amenities key system that was a bit inconvenient.

I had a fantastic stay at this resort! The beach was just a stone's throw away, and the cabin was spotless and super comfortable. The staff really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. I loved the indoor pool and spa, but I did notice the lawn could use some mowing. Overall, it's a great spot for families or couples looking to relax and enjoy some time by the water.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. The overall cleanliness and the spaciousness of the accommodations were definitely highlights, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. However, I did find the amenities somewhat lacking, particularly with the dining experience, which could use some improvement. While the location was convenient for accessing nearby attractions, the price felt a bit high given the shortcomings in service and facilities.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious and clean, but the air flow was an issue due to the lack of a screen on the back door. It got quite hot, and I think some additional shade would have helped.

I had an enjoyable stay that was marked by clean and comfortable accommodations at a great price. The location was very convenient for visiting local attractions. However, I did notice some minor cleanliness issues, especially with a few cockroaches in the kitchen area at night, which was a bit off-putting. Overall, it's an affordable option, particularly for families.
