Delicious Evening Buffets

The buffet dinner at Kims was a good experience. I enjoyed Moreton Bay bugs, sashimi platters, and their exquisite pork loin. The quality of the food was excellent, and the dessert bar offered amazing homemade ice cream. It was truly one of the highlights of my stay. Every meal felt like a special occasion.

Comfortable Beach Bungalow

We stayed in a spacious beach bungalow that was just steps from the sand. The room was well-appointed and comfortable, perfect for a cozy getaway. I loved having my own private deck where I could relax and enjoy the ocean view. Everything we needed was at our fingertips, making our stay incredibly enjoyable.

Tranquil Atmosphere

The serene environment at Kims Beachside Retreat felt like an oasis. The lush gardens and well-maintained pathways provided a peaceful escape. Although I didn’t use a spa, it was wonderful to unwind on the deck of my bungalow, soaking in the tranquility of the beach just outside.

Spacious and Clean Rooms

My stay in the beach-side bungalow was quite comfortable. The bedroom was spacious, clean, and furnished with a very comfortable bed. It was a pleasure to come back to such a pleasant space after a day of beach activities. The room provided the perfect backdrop for relaxation and enjoyment.

Our stay was quite the mixed bag. The beach front bungalow offered breathtaking views and the sound of crashing waves, which made for a lovely backdrop. However, the dining experience fell short as the food quality was inconsistent and did not meet the expectations for the high price we paid. The service also left a lot to be desired, which was disappointing given the resort's reputation.
