Bit reluctant to say to much or more people will go there. The location is beautiful and serene, facilities (en suite site) are clean and well maintained, cafe is licensed and the food is brilliant. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful and, for us, went above and beyond to help. Highly recommended, definitely will go back.

Your guide to this area
Eating & Drinking
You've got ultimate convenience here thanks to a fantastic cafe located on site that is open 7 days a week for breakfast and lunch, and Wednesday to Sunday for dinner. It's got a great menu that has something for everyone, and also operates as a fully licensed bar. You can choose to dine in here or grab takeaway and have it back at your accommodation. Nothing says holidays quite like a burger and the Dirtybird Burger is a favourite of ours - juicy fried chicken with ranch sauce, pickles, slaw, cheese, fries and hot honey
If you're wanting to check out what's beyond the property, as often comes with the territory in beautiful secluded locations like this, there is not a huge range of options within walking distance. The closest is the Corindi Beach Hotel, a classic pub about 5 minutes drive away in the town of Corindi Beach. Here you’ll find cold drinks and classic pub fare. Take away is available if you'd prefer to eat back at your accommodation.
For a broader range of options, you’ll need to drive 10 minutes in the other direction to Woolgoolga. Here, our go to is La Hacienda 101 for a taco fuelled Mexican feast and a great kids menu too, it’s perfect for lunch or dinner.
Ground Earth is a great spot for coffee, and if you happen to be travelling with anyone with allergies or intolerances it will quickly become a favourite thanks to its variety of vegan and gluten free options.
To Do List
If you’ve got anyone in your group who enjoys splashing about in the pool, you’ve come to the right place. The park has extensive water based activities, including multiple pools with waterslide, a spa and a whole separate water park. If you prefer an ocean swim, there’s access from the park to beautiful Corindi Beach which also boasts a consistent surf break so be sure to bring your board.
There’s also plenty of land based fun to be had with a BMX track, mini golf and an archery range the highlights, something we haven’t seen at any other park before.
Keen golfers will be particularly happy with a fun 9 Hole course located within the property, a small fee of $10 is payable for a round and if you haven’t brought your own gear, you can hire from reception.
Heads Up
Whilst the park is in a relatively secluded location meaning there aren't lots of shops nearby, there's a convenience kiosk on site which stocks newspapers, magazines, basic grocery items, drinks, chips, lollies and more.

On site cafe and for those with children there is plenty for them to do. The interaction with the wildlife is beautiful. All amenities are very clean and well maintained.
NRMA Darlington Beach Resort is definitely one to visit.
We stayed at Darlington Beach Resort over the Easter holidays and had a wonderful experience. We booked an unpowered campsite and everything exceeded our expectations. The site was spacious, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful nature. All facilities are very clean and well maintained. The cleaners are working so hard and they are very friendly. And there were plenty of activities for both kids and adults to enjoy. The beach is just a short walk away, and the whole area feels very family-friendly and relaxed. Staff were also super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.
I’ve been here a few times now and it’s always a wonderful experience. The staff are easy to find and very helpful. They always have a great attitude and are super friendly. Shoutout to Emma who was a sweetheart when we did archery! The ladies at the restaurant are absolutely incredible also. Their planned activities are very organised and easy to follow. The whole park is kept and clean. So much so that the kangaroos are able to explore the whole place - giving guests a true ‘in nature’ experience. The only thing to look out for is the birds who are always looking for a portion of your lunch hahah
