“I think this property is a great choice for families; the rainforest setting and direct beach access are a rare combination. The heated pool and waterslide add to the appeal, while parents will appreciate the self-contained apartments. It's convenient to have popular attractions nearby, like Australia Zoo, but the biggest draw for me is Moffat Beach itself.”
