I had a wonderful experience at the resort. The self-catering apartments offered amazing views of the lake and were well-equipped for a relaxing stay. I truly appreciated the tranquil surroundings and the spaciousness of the units. However, it was disappointing to find out about the limited reception hours and the lack of daily housekeeping. Overall, I felt the value for money was excellent, especially midweek.

Tinaroo Lake Resort is an absolutely stunning place, set with breathtaking views of the lake that make for a perfect getaway. We loved our spacious condo and its proximity to the conference venue, which was on point for our needs. The amenities were fantastic, and the meals were delicious. However, we found the bed a bit too hard for our liking, and it would have been nice to have a wider variety of food options available during the event.
