波特蘭渡假村(Portland Holiday Village)

Firstly dont book on line, call the park to make your booking, as on line places take more of the money. So the park is not getting all your money..its going offshore. If we had of called the park we would not have been booked into 2 sites. The lovely people saw that and changed our booking as so we didn't have to move. They were lovely people and helpful

Everyrging was as advertised. The unir was clean, well appointed, and tje staff were happy and helpful.

We stayed in cabin 2, one of the five remaining older cabins - the rest of the park consists of brand new cabins and I would recommend you book one of these and not the basic ones (although it would be cheaper I suppose). We had two bedrooms, one with a double or queen (looked like double) and the other with a queen/single bunk. I slept in the "queen" bottom bunk and it doesn't qualify as a queen given that it's smaller than my double bed at home. I am 167cm (about 5'3) and when my head was on the pillow, my feet were touching the wall at the foot end. Tall people will not be able to stretch out. The mattress was only about 5cm thick, but thankfully comfortable. Pillows thin, but all linen clean. We know we paid for a basic cabin, so yep, it was basic all around. Not a lot of kitchen utensils but the reception lady said they get stolen a lot. There were obvious marks showing that the cabin has previously had water leaks during rain from the corners of several windows (see photos). I took photos once it actually started pouring rain, there are active leaks on left bottom corner of lounge window (above the couch) and right bottom side of main bedroom window. I tested the others with old stains - they were dry and have evidently been fixed at some point. The floors in this cabin look very new, and the one other thing that looked new was the lovely Fuji air conditioner that helped keep us warm. To the owners: the sliding front door on cabin 2 needs renewing. It's heavy and needs a lot of force to open and close. The key didn't fit in the screen door lock, but it had no holes so useful for keeping out flies and mozzies come summer. This cabin (and I'm willing to bet the other four basic ones) could do with a lot more renovations and upgrades or perhaps just total replacement.....but then there would be no more basic cheap cabins left for those on a budget. Note: basic cabins will shake and rattle a lot during high winds and/or a storm. We endured that for one night & day during our stay. It was a pretty fierce rain/wind storm (no thunder or lighting). As we watched the TV, a huge wind gust hit the cabin, shaking it and the TV itself wobbled on its shelf! Thankfully this weather passed by the follwing night. These cabins might be old but they're pretty sturdy! Staff were friendly. One of them let us know there's no recycling bins at the park when we were looking for one. She said she and other staff had asked the owners for recycling bins but they don't want to have them. I think they might be afraid that visitors will just throw any old rubbish in recycle bins, contaminating them. We used the laundry during our stay. It's clean and the coin operated washing machines and dryers work well. Location great, IGA supermarket across the road, other shops, restaurants and Portland harbour nearby.

At reception it was rushed. Told check in was 2 - 8 but they rang while we were on the way to say they were closing at 4 . We just hit there in time. Both bedside lights in main bedroom were broken. Not just blown globes. Aircon remote was old and could not see icons to choose for head. Nothing in the unit to show how aircon worked.

Our cabin was basic holiday accommodation: I found the bathroom a little cramped, and the mattress in the main bedroom uncomfortable. We liked the lounge area with full-sized dining table, as we provided our own meals and were able to invite family members travelling with us to join us.

The unit was very modern and spacious , well equiped with full kitchen facilities and good air conditioning. Right in town with IGA across the right.

Management were very welcoming. Thank you great set up.👍

The beds a bit uncomfortable The cooktops too slow to cook . It takes too long to even boil some water

Stayed three nights. Lounge kitchen area was good. Main bedroom needs a mattress topper but a bit hard. Plenty of dishes. Microwave,kettle toaster good. Big balcony large table and two benches. The BBQ area was undercover Two big lounges and plenty of tables and chairs.
