Reviews of Sunshine Beach Resort
Ben Harper
We had a really nice stay here. The price is very fair for the quality of rooms and the pool area. Its also in a great location to do lots on the GC. The lady on reception was absolutely lovely too. People expecting a super fancy place are not thinking about the price. But you get clean linen and room, a nice pool and a great location for cheap.
