Amaroo Holiday Park

Amaroo Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent
"We only needed somewhere for a night and the price was great. The guy at reception was friendly and he upgraded our cabin. The cabin was really nice. We did not expect much for the price we paid but were surprised at how good the place was. Electric blanket was another win for a winter night. So close to the shops or walk to the beach. Will definitely be locking this place in if we are back this way in the future."
