Barwon Heads Resort at 13th Beach, Connewarre

Exceptional

Liked: One bedroom apartment comfortable for two people. Staff helpful, plenty of car parking.
Disliked: Would love pool to have been solar heated.

Very comfortable stay with friendly,...

Liked: Rooms were spacious, full kitchen was very handy, nice balcony to have breakfast and dinner on. Netflix/wifi was great for the kids. Washing machine and dryer were also very handy as well.
Disliked: The pool and BBQ facilities are great however the pool would have benefited from being covered by a shade sail.

A lovely resort to relax...

Liked: The staff were wonderful, especially Sue on the front desk - nothing was too much trouble. The bed was lovely and comfy and the kitchen was well equipped.
Disliked: The couch in the room was very hard and tiny. The gym had no towels or cleaning products so you could wipe down the equipment after use. Some of the equipment could use a service too.This is the only resort I have ever stayed at that doesn't provide pool towels! Found this very poor given the resort title and price.Couldn't find the walkway to the beach as there was no signage to indicate the appropriate path through the golf course.

Great for golfers, not families

Liked: Upon arriving you will instantly love the grounds and golf course. The staff at the resort are friendly.
Disliked: The resort itself is showing signs that it is not well maintained. The pool was freezing, even on a 40deg day. The pool is falling apart (tile patch work was amateur at best), clumps of algae meant you couldn't put your head under water. The gym is a hazard, with most equipment rusted or stiff. The basketball court has bolted shards of metal exposed, guessing from a previous structure.The rooms are ok, but with only one spilt system in the main area, it doesn't cool the rooms, and you can't open the bedroom windows because of the lights in the central area and the noise of everyone else opening/closing there doors.The beds are super hard, so don't think you're paying for a comfortable sleep.Even staying over the Xmas period, the restaurant was only open on weekends. The entitlement of the club house was crazy to witness, you couldn't help but feel like a second class citizen, even just to get a coffee. Unless you were there to play golf, I wouldn't recommend staying there. Stay at the RACV club instead. The facilities are much better connected and you feel welcomed.
