The duration of the stay...
Liked: The property is actually very beautiful surrounded by trees and Buildings and behind us was the Large Water Tower, we valued the privacy
Disliked: It needed to be brighter outside as it seemed Gloomy and sad i feel like we weren’t told about the History of the Island and perhaps our Home we stayed in as the 2nd night there there were Noises and people talking outside my window at a time when it was dark, cold wet and Windy, I wasn’t imagining things however that was my experience

Great camping experience
Liked: Location is the best, views are second to noneStaff is very friendly and helpful Facilities are great The tent was pretty good given the very bad weather on that night we stayed. We were sleeping like logs in the rain. I would not suggest BYO tents because the weather can be quite tricky on the island.
Disliked: It can be a little bit noisy at some points.

Great adventure let down by...
Liked: Location was amazing. Staff very helpful. Toilets/showers great
Disliked: Airmatress had a whole in it. Talking to other guests this appeared common problem.Booked for three (adult +2 kids) but only 2 mattresses.Dinner was not available when we arrived on Friday evening- disappointed it closed so early (7pm)Breakfast on sat very expensive ($10 for two pieces of toast that were not even buttered!!); and because of the surge took 45min to order. Suggest that this is a known constraints and the cafe could anticipate the demand and prepare better (pre-made common items in warmer like bacon and eggs)

An incredible experience and treat!
Liked: We absolutely loved our stay on Cockatoo Island in one of the Harbourside Apartments. So peaceful with spectacular wrap around views and incredibly comfortable and well appointed apartment. There is a lot to do on Cockatoo Island or no need to do anything. We chose to stay during the acoustic Sunset Sessions in summer so that we could also go to a concert one evening which was delightful. The guided tours on the island are fantastic with very well-informed and interesting guides.
Disliked: The food options on the island are very limited and closed very early. For the standard of accommodation it would be ideal to have breakfast items provided at least for the first morning. We appreciated the tea and coffee provided but it was very limited with only one small container of milk. There was no other biscuits or other items provided which surprised us. Overall it was the food in the apartment and on the island that was the only disappointment.
