Lovely Culinary Experience

The meals provided at Vacala Bay Resort were truly excellent. Each dish prepared by the hosts showcased the freshest ingredients, many sourced directly from their own garden, and each meal left my partner and me in awe. As foodies, we were blown away with the creativity and flavor of every meal they prepared. Dining at this resort made our stay even more nice.

Really good Relaxation

The leisure activities offered were amazing. We explored the massive heritage-listed natural park and swam in enchanting waterfalls, which added a fantastic element of adventure to our trip. These experiences allowed us to relax and soak in the natural beauty surrounding us, making it a truly revitalizing holiday.

Stargazing Bliss

One of the highlights of our stay was stargazing from the nets above the deck. Under the southern cross, the beauty of the night sky was simply amazing. Listening to the sounds of the ocean while nestled in each other's arms created an lovely romantic ambiance that we will cherish forever.
