Fantastic Group Weekend Destination
We had a wonderful weekend at Island Bay Ranch. With 8 families and children ranging from toddlers to teens, there was something for everyone to do and lots of space to roam. Having exclusive use of the property meant the adults could relax and not worry about where the kids were and the kids loved the freedom. With such large indoor spaces, the weather didn't bother us and everyone agreed it was a fantastic destination. Natalie was great to deal with and we'll definitely be back again.

Girls Getaway
We absolutely loved our stay! The facilities are fantastic and so well equipped with everything you need. We loved the spa and sitting by the pool after a round of tennis. The surrounding area is so peaceful it's hard not to relax and unwind. Can't wait to come back!

FAMILY GETAWAY
Perfect venue for extended family annual get together. Accommodation and facilities suited 14 adults and 4 children with plenty of room. Kids loved the trampoline and play equipment and the pool and spa were idyllic. Kitchen facilities more than catered for our needs. Plenty of outdoor games provided to pass the time. Very professional management. Can't wait to stay again.

Idyllic views and heaps of space.
This is our second stay here, and each time we are so sad to leave. Gorgeous property, fantastically fitted out with everything you need. Kids can run free without us worrying about their safety or about them getting lost.

Couldn't recommend more highly
We loved out two nights at Island Bay Ranch. Natalie was a joy to deal with both prior to and on arrival. The first think you'll notice about Island Bay Ranch is the space! There is so much space!!! Even as a group of around 25 people, there was plenty of space to hang out and not be on top of each other. The place is perfect for kids with a trampoline and play equipment. Located not too far from the house. I would highly recommend Island Bay Ranch for your next getaway.

We rebooked before we'd left!
We were 5 families with children ranging from 18 months to 7 years and we all loved Island Bay Ranch. The cabins were clean and spacious, close enough for us all to feel secure but also quiet despite the late night dancing in the al fresco area! The communal area is HUGE! There is so much space, the dining room is more like a restaurant, the Kitchen has everything you need, the alfresco area is perfect to relax in after the kids go to bed. The pool was sparkling when we arrived and the kids only got out for a trip to nearby Smiths Beach and to eat. We all highly recommend Island Bay Ranch, we loved it so much we rebooked for next year before we'd left and added an extra nights stay!

Excellent place for families.
Six families came to stay and play at Island Bay Ranch and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! The kids loved swimming in the pool, the playground, the trampoline and hitting a round of tennis whilst the adults enjoyed the fact that everything was self-contained and there was no rush to go anywhere or do anything other than enjoy the facilities and each other's company. We could not recommend this place highly enough for those travelling with kids (our kids ranged in age from four to twelve and everything in between) as everyone will be entertained.
