17 Jun 09
Where can they find a destination that’s fun, family-friendly, safe and full of activities for the young and not-so-young?
In the recent "Top Ten Family Friendly Resort Awards' hosted by the Holidays with Kids website, Couran Cove Island Resort received a highly commended in the 4 stars and over category.
In their latest Readers' Survey (sent out to online database of 38,000 registered members and to magazine readership of over 600,000), readers could vote on their favourite resorts and holiday parks in Asia, the South Pacific and in Australia.
Readers scored each resort on facilities and activities for children, the quality of childcare and babysitting services, the standard of accommodation, the location, value for money and the overall experience. Resorts were rated based on each of these criteria from one to five. 1
Couran Cove Island Resort, situated on the Gold Coast’s South Stradbroke Island, offers all this and more – so finding a getaway the whole family enjoys is no longer a challenge.
The broad range of activities provides families with the opportunity to spend quality time together – building a lifetime of family memories.
Outdoor excitement while exploring the maze of safe bike trails, sun-soaked beaches and coastal bush is sure to lure the kids away from the TV and the Xbox.
Free activities, which the kids won’t even realise have an educational slant, include the opportunity to get up close and personal with the island’s native wildlife and resident reptile collection and learn about the island’s aboriginal culture and dreamtime artifacts located around the resort on the Alcheringa Trail self-guided walk tour.
Bush walks and cycling trails in the many rainforest tracks offer further incentive to explore the natural world on land, while the timetable offers every possible combination of water activities you’d expect from an island resort. Even the younger kids can get special treatment with those from age three upwards catered for at the resort’s Kites Kids Club.
With the kids happily entertained, parents can relax at the luxurious Day Spa (the couples’ room is very popular) or simply kick back and enjoy a relaxing picnic on their own private patch of the resort’s 22 kilometre stretch of beach.
