Orleans Bay Caravan Park

What a great location. Beaches are great. Same about all the dirt bikes in the caravan park. Too much noise for a caravan park. Children all riding parks through the park and not repecting any road rules. Came for a peaceful weekend and it turned into a motor cross meet.

This was our first time here , w loved it . Big playground . Lovley beaches Powered site are really big. Only thing is mens showers had no hot water the whole time we were there and woman’s had no bench’s to put there stuff on especially when having to shower kids so all your stuff gets wet :(( Great places for fishing to

We stayed in the unpowered section as family. The nightly cost was $76. For this there was no camp kitchen (there is one in the powered area), no sinks for washing up and the shower/ toilets were located over a hill nd out of sight down the access road (not ideal with children). The surrounding area is beautiful however the park itself was disappointing and certainly wasn't worth the cost. Staff however were helpful.

The website is quite misleading as it states children's playground, tennis courts and mini golf. These are in the park but very rundown and sad. The toilets and showers are not kept clean ,so very sandy and wet with nowhere to put dry clothes or towel when showering but the water is good pressure and hot. There are 2 laundrys, one was closed as not operating and the other had 2 /4 machines not working. No dryers. The sites are all sand and for the week we were there we did not see anyone tidy up any sites of leaves and other litter about the park. We found the "camp kitchen" a bit of a stretch in calling it that as it had only 2 sinks to wash up. Usually it is common to find fridge, toaster, kettle and a cooktop for campers to use. The location is a beautiful spot on Australia's South Coast, and the park was fully booked out. It is a shame that the park is not being well maintained and care taken of it.

From the moment Orleans Bay Road is ending the sights fill the windscreen and fills one with wonder. Only an hour on from Esperance the Orleans Bay is worth the trip. And with soooo much to explore, or for a quiet (romantic) 4 day stay, The Duke is just the place. Be it camp, caravan or cabin, there is lots of space and plenty to offer. All the usual facilities are available; clean and functional, with luxury rainfall HOT showers. There’s even a Mothers Room especially for safe comfortable child care. Plus lots more available from the store. An great range of foodstuffs, general goods, icecream and treats. Plus fuel, air pump +++ And all topped off with fabulous customer service. Spend the time and I’m sure you’ll be back or take away memories to last a lifetime. Plus fishing vests for safe rock fishing,

On Monday my car broke down about 500m-1km west of the Duke of Orleans Caravan Park and without any phone signal (albeit Telstra has reception) walked to the caravan park to ask for help - Jojo in reception went out of her way to help me out in a time of need - contacting RAC and making sure I was looked after at the caravan park that afternoon until help could arrive. Cannot thank Jojo or the crew at the caravan park enough, true act of kindness and doesn't go unappreciated! Must say, while it is an hour east of Esperance there aren't that many more picturesque locations where you can brake down at.
