“Amaroo Resort sits on two acres of unspoiled waterfront in Sussex Inlet, a great location that allows walking access to both the waterfront and shops; the resort has cottages and villas equipped for water sports and family fun, plus a playground and trampoline for the kids. While some facilities need updating-new owners are on the case-this remains a solid choice for those seeking adventure or relaxation. It's a dog-friendly place near beaches and nature walks, a relaxing getaway amidst the Australian wildlife.”
