Up to 15 years ago I said that , but a prize raffle win changed my mind ,we often go twice a year , the secret stay at a quality gated resort ..
I know one of my pals swears by it too but I can rent a place at whale beach an hour or so from me and sit and read a book there, without the time, cost and threat of never being able to leave due to a discrepancy At customs and lack of funds to bribe the local government to allow “safe passage”[emoji849]
Been there 15 odd times now ,I feel safer over there then say walking down a main street in Coolum at night. We go Jetstar (bogan bus) business class and you just sail through re booking at the airport , yes plenty of trash Aussie's over their you just avoid where they go and stay .
Big white man, throwing his weight around downtrodden locals. Do you leave a tip or just pat them on the head?
