Reviews for Discovery Holiday Parks - Devonport
Review 1:Our particular unit was quite small compared to others the we travelled with
Review 2:The view over the water, watching the spirit Tasmania was pretty cool and the kids loved it
Review 3:Only two things - 1- air con did not work. 2- the staff speed around the grounds very fast on them dangerous silent buggies
Review 4:Nice staff, great surroundings, v close to ferry terminal, good bouncy pillow for children loads of fun.
Review 5:The outside was very bare, perhaps an outdoor setting for each cabin, trees and gearden beds would have made the outside more attractive
Review 6:Location was excellent Cabins were really roomy and had what you needed
Review 7:There was a lack of cooking utilities. We needed a larger saucepan and a deeper frypan/stir fry pan/wok for us to cook a pasta meal than was available for 3 adults. We ended up having to purchase one for us to cook our dinner.
Review 8:The cabin was clean and not too far from the city center to travel by bike.

Review 75:Cabin was clean neat and tidy and the park is well presented. Could do with more landscaping.
Review 76:How clean the place was & the staff were only to happy to help with anything we needed.
Review 77:Our booking was incorrect and the lock was broken on our cabin which meant that we couldn't get in the first time and had to leave the door unlocked. Nothing was done about it throughout our stay, and the problem was ignored by staff.
Review 78:The seaside view.
Review 79:At the time of our booking we selected a 2 bedroom cabin with the 2 double bed layout as we were 2 adult friends travelling together. We added this bed preference in the request section when making the booking which was made well ahead of our stay but it is not what we got. Only 1 bedroom & bed was made up properly & the other room had a set of child sized bunks which were not even made up fully (1 bottom sheet only & folded up quilts). I am not a big person but the bunk was tiny & I could barely fit across if I lay flat on my back. I had to spread out a quilt over the mattress to help cushion & pad it a bit, as the mattress (& pillows) were really hard & very uncomfortable. Awful nights sleep & I woke up very stiff & sore. Obviously our request was ignored & a booking for 2 people was assumed to be a couple sharing the same bed! If the cabin & bedding preference was unavailable it would have been nice to have been notified at the time of booking. As we arrived later in the evening (as we had also mentioned would be the case at the time of our reservation) & left early in the morning, we did not see any staff during our brief stay. We also both found the taps in the shower were quite stiff & hard to turn on & off. There was only 1 2-seater lounge in a family cabin other than the hard chairs around the table. Very disappointed & will think of spending a bit more money next time to get a better nights sleep elsewhere.
Review 80:Location & at the time of booking the cost (but it seems that a cheaper price does not necessarily mean value for money because that is not what we got).
Review 81:there was nothing i didnt like could not fault anything
Review 82:the laidback style,feeling of safety with my 11yo daughter,absolutly everything,loved every little minute of everything
