Reviews of Rockwater Secret Cove Resort

  Upon check in we received the first cabin on the path. It is located literally no further than couple of metres from the path and everyone walking by can clearly see inside (unless you have all the windows covered which, when one of the main reasons you are there is the view, rather defeats the purpose). This was incredibly frustrating as this was precisely the reason why we called ahead of time and were assured that the tent was in a private location.

  We finally settled in for the night, with 2 space heaters, floor heating and gas fireplace going. The temperature stayed at about 18°C and went down to 16°C during the night. Not the most comfortable temperature.

  Would I recommend people come here?

  Again, I know this is glorified tent and it's January outside so I would have no issues if this was mentioned upon booking or somewhere in the website/terms and conditions, but we were very directly assured that the heating is not a problem and honestly for the price, it shouldn't have been. These should not be rented out during the winter months, not at this price and not without a proper disclaimer. The staff didn't really appear to be surprised by all of this and I do get a feeling they are stuck in the situation where management dictates that all of these have to be rented out, regardless of the deficiencies and very apparent upkeep issues (such not working power plugs and lights)

  While the location itself is gorgeous, the resort and the service itself leave much to be desired, especially considering the price.

  We were planing to stay for 3 nights but ended up checking out after the first night.

  We booked one of their tents (the glamour bit with heated floor and fireplace) for the weekend. Since it is a January, the first thing we asked before booking if they are warm (keep on mind, this is mid-january, so outside temperatures go to below 5°C) as they are tents after all. We were assured that they get quite warm and cozy. We also requested a quieter and private location.

  After switching to one in a more quiet area (with an increased price of $429 + tax) we discovered that the floor heating was not working at all and the internal temperature maxed at 16°C so we had to move yet again to another accommodation. This has been mentioned as an issue in several reviews as the maintenance had deteriorated since the ownership change.

  The food is amazing, very well prepared, each and every single one of them. The service is exquisite, overall a great group experience. Would highly recommend heading out towards the resort if you are in this area and looking for some fine dining experience. Just make sure you do have GPS when getting here at night, there are a few slip roads that could take you down the beaten path and away from the destination.

  We were lucky enough to have had our wedding at Rockwater Secret Cove Resort on August 19th. It was absolutely AMAZING. The whole process from start to finish was great. We were in constant communication with the resort, and they were able to accommodate all of our requests. We even took a chance on the menu without having tried any of the food. The food was delicious!! The hotel worked with us on a custom Buffet menu that fit our preferences and it did not disappoint! The food was a huge hit at our wedding. The scenery, the staff and the whole process was fantastic. It is such a hidden gem and we are so lucky to have had our wedding here!! We can't wait to go back!

  We stayed in the luxury tent for two nights and it was relaxing despite the rain. Amenities was plentiful, bed was comfy, tub was awesome. I would not recommend the restaurant however as the food was below average for breakfast. Service was friendly and welcoming.

  And to be clear the heating easy does also related to the main building, where it was almost as uncomfortable cold, with people siting in the bar area with their jackets on.

  All I can say is that its a real shame to see such a gorgeous property ruined by management inability or intention deception.

  Really nice place, 100% worth while coming just for the seclusion and ocean views. Just beautiful. I've stayed here many times and the only thing preventing this place from 5 stars is the amenities and service. I've noticed it is getting better but still needs work.

  Now on to food. Quite honestly don't eat there. We had dinner and breakfast the following day. Dinner appeared quite nice at the time but we both certainly felt significant indigestion few hours after. The breakfast was well bellow expectations for this price range, something you would get at a greasy dinner.
