"We’ve stayed a number of times at both The Retreat, and also the Holiday Park. Last weekend we came to stay at the holiday park for our daughter’s 15th birthday, along with several of her friends (10 kids in total). Honestly the perfect place to host a birthday celebration. The kids had an absolute blast using all of the facilities, especially the pool, and the staff made the stay even more special by surprising her with balloons and a special gift on arrival. Thanks so much West Beach Parks. Will be one we will always remember." This is what it's all about! Thank you for the kind words, Charne, we're thrilled we could help make your daughter's birthday such a memorable occasion. Whether it’s a family getaway, milestone celebration or spontaneous weekend escape, West Beach Parks is the perfect place to create memories that last💛 Join the fun: https://bit.ly/4aku9Bz.
