Discovery Parks - Townsville

I had a very poor nights sleep because of all the road noise outside. There was no way to get any natural airflow into the room and it smelt musty and damp. The room was very old but it was at least clean to a degree.

We stayed in a 'motel room'. Thankfully, just for one night. Even in a standard room a toaster is usually provided, but no. One of the teaspoons with the mugs was dirty, with the leftovers with what I imagine was yoghurt. The bed side tables were thick with dirt, which I cleaned. We went to the 'camp kitchen' to use the microwave. This is the poorest version of a camp kitchen I have seen in my 6 years of travel. Overall a let down.

We had an extended stay at this park to catch up on laundry and recharge We had a nice grassy site with some shade The amenities were top class and very clean Good laundry as well The park has an excellent pool plus a water slide area, and a separate play area for the kids Friday and Saturday nights are pizza nights so no need to go out

Welcoming and efficent staff. My son loved the pool and jumping pillow. Although this is close to highway I had very little vehicle noise. That was surprising. I stayed in a hotel room and the rooms were very comfortable, quiet, and great water pressure. Next to a service station for last minute purchases. Very clean. We will be staying here again next year when we come back to the workshops we needed to attend.

Stayed in a motel room this visit. The room was a basic motel room with a bathroom, a small bar fridge, and a kettle. Tidy enough. The pool area is great for kids. The water slides were a massive hit with my little one. Close proximity to shopping centre with everything you would need to get you through.

We picked this site for its location as a stopover on our motorhome tour and it was ideal right beside the A1. The site itself was clean with all the facilities you need and it was quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful. There is a regular bus into town.

Advertising makes it look great for kids, in reality, resort style pool is actually very mediocre with one broken toddler slide and one very old worm/caterpillar (?) slide. Smallest jumping pillow I've ever seen in any park. Playground looks fairly new but only for toddlers as it is small. Best feature for kids are 2 slides that are part of a new but small splash pad area. Accommodation is reasonable for price but you definitely notice the Highway noise.

Got a downstairs room in the old hotel part. The stench of mould in the bathroom made it completely unusable. It was truly sickening. The aircon also blasted out stinky air. Thankfully there is a big window. They refused to move me and it’s impossible to get a refund from these guys. Yes, the pool is good. It is also basically on a highway, so not exactly relaxing.

This place is so nice. We travelled with family and 2 children aged 8 and 11. The children and adults enjoyed the pool space including water slides and small water park. There is also a playground and jumping pillow space but we didnt have time to use it. The cabin we had was really comfortable, spacious and nice. Maybe a little squishy at times but wasn't a problem. There is a small lounge, dining and kitchen space along with the 2 bedrooms and bathroom. There is a petrol station nearby and also a Chinese/Asian takeaway place next door. We didn't' dine there but it looked really nice. Very friendly staff and beautiful park. Will def come here again!
