BIG4 South Durras Holiday Park — Hotel in South Durras

My wife and I stayed here for 12 nights over the xmas and new year period. We had an incredible experience. We have stayed at a few Big 4's and other camping grounds and BY FAR this was our favorite. The grounds and amenities are exceptionally well kept, clean and maintained.

Being in a tent and gazebo set up the fixed groundsheets were something we had not had before and made such a difference to our level of comfort. the site sizes were also very generous. Even during the busiest season of the year with a full park we didnt feel cramped or impinged upon in any way. There was plenty of showering and bathroom amenities which were of a high standard, with great water pressure and temperature and always very well cleaned. The small office had essentials to save you having to go all the way out to get ice etc. The staff were always very pleasant and friendly without over managing peoples holidays. I can see why some of the other campers had chosen to return year on year for over 6 years. A great spot to be close enough to town if you need it yet feel secluded too and a great jumping point to explore some of the incredible natural beauty of the south coast.

Thank you for making our holiday so comfortable, relaxing...

Recently spent a week at Big4 South Durras, would definitely go back again!

A nice small park, not competing with hundreds of people for the pool and bbq.

Was in one of the pool villas, so the deck overlooks the pool and you can keep an eye on the kids.

Customer service was terrific, a friendly welcome and any little requests (ie extra garbage bags etc) was no trouble and handled with a smile.

My only little gripe is the couch in the lounge area in our cabin had a noticeable musky smell. Many previous guests have probably sat on the couch wet, and the couch could do with a proper deep clean (or even replacement!). You aren’t in the cabin much so it’s not a deal breaker, but still… worth the mention.

Oh, and the TV doesn’t have accessible HDMI ports, they are all tucked away behind the tv and you can’t reach them. If you want to connect any devices, you won’t be able to. If they provided/connected a cheap HMDI hub (and got rid of the DVD player!), it would be a good cheap upgrade to AV options.

Other than those two things (again not deal breakers), we would definitely stay...

Spent fours nights over the Australia Day long weekend here. Outstanding place. We knew it was going to be good from the get-go, because the families on the sites either wide of our tent had both been coming at the same time every year for almost a decade in both cases, and all the kids running around the park clearly knew each other well.

Great friendly vibe, good facilities, and no pretensions to being a resort and charging resort-style rates. Amenities were always spotless and well-maintained. The pool was great for a dip when we weren't at the beach. The shop had everything we needed for the stay. The beach was fantastic. The camp site was beautifully located looking out into the forest. The site mat was clean, tidy, and well maintained. The park pulled out a bunch if nice touches for Australia day, including face painting, kids disco, ice cream trucks, BBQs and slushies, and the list goes on.

The managers were super helpful, nice, and friendly. They even jumped my car for me when I ran the battery flat!

First timers but will certainly...
