Meet the reviewing family for Tallebudgera Creek Tourist Park …
Rebel and her family (Mum, Dad, 3 children and a bub on the way) are looking forward to putting Tallebudgera Creek Tourist Park to the family test.
Rebel’s criteria for a great family holiday is a beautiful location but importantly a destination that offers something for everyone. Activities for the kids rate highly on her list as does opportunities for a little adventure.
With baby on board, Rebel is also excited about the prospect of being able to sit by the pool and relax while the rest of the family play for hours in the pool!
Highly recommend this resort. It us really kid friendly, so great for the whole family. It is lixated centrally at Tallebuggera. The beach is just there and it is nice, shallow and calm waters for children of all ages.
Cabins were clean and spacious, will be returning next summer!

The wide and safe roads around the mark make it the perfect track for these bad boys! At only $10 for half an hour (including helmet hire) they certainly caught my husband's attention! the kids also loved them... although competitive dad made it a bit hard for them to catch up ;)

It was pretty hard to handle the pool area... NOT! I was able to recline with my generous baby bump while Daddy and the kids hit the slides.
There were plenty of shady spots, lounges, chairs and places to set up for the day. This was just one of the pools on offer, a more family kind of set-up, with a fantastic baby paddle area as well. There is another pool, designed for those perhaps not wanting to get splashed by the kiddies and perfect for doing laps.

The famous Tallebudgera Creek surrounds the park. A safe netted off water area is provided for kids to enjoy, as well as tonnes of shadey areas perfect for whole day picnics! Families were enjoying kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, fishing.... any water sport you could imagine. It;s a perfect wave-free beach for families to enjoy. If it IS waves you are after, you only need to cross the road and you'll be on some of the Gold Coasts most pristine surf beaches!

We are normally a family of campers. A trip away for us usually involves hours of pre-packing, then hours of unpacking and set-up on arrival. Not this time, we just threw a couple of bags in the boot and away we went. Yeehah!
Arriving at Tallebudgera Creek Tourist Park, it was clear to see they catered for all types of holidayers. Beautiful shady camp grounds with lovely amenities and a variety of cabin styles abounded.
We checked in and went to find Cabin 11, and were not disappointed! Before we even got in the door Ruby found a rock that summed up how excited she was about our weekend away! Then Andy noticed the outdoor BBQ/Kitchen on our balcony and was super-excited (me too... that meant he could cook... )
Once inside the cabin was lovely. A very modern feel, with two large bedrooms. A fully equipped kitchen, comfy lounge, lots of space and it even had Foxtel, a novelty for us!
There was nothing lacking for our family of five, we were very happy!

“My Floor Has Never Been So Clean”: The Mop That’s Winning Over Mums
Mopping isn’t exactly the chore most of us look forward to, but like most mums, for Katrina Macilroy, it’s unavoidable.
With three teenagers, a husband, a dog, two cats and timber flooring throughout most of her home, there’s plenty to keep her mop busy.
“I thought the toddler stage was hard, but teenagers take it to a whole other level,” Katrina told Mouths of Mums.
She describes herself as a ‘full-time Uber driver’ for her three kids, but when she’s home, she may as well be a full-time cleaner.
Her husband is a concreter, the family has plenty of sand coming inside and, with teenagers touching everything, the floors quickly show the evidence of a full family life.
“I have to mop like every second day because the floor gets marks,” she said.
So when Katrina was given the chance to try the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, she was keen to see whether it could actually make one of her least favourite cleaning tasks any easier.
“I didn’t have high hopes for it to start with, because I’ve used spin mops before and I’d been disappointed,” she admitted.
But it didn’t take long for her to change her mind. One of the first things Katrina noticed was just how easy the mop was to use.
The foot pedal made wringing the mop quick and simple, without having to stop and fiddle with anything.
“It was so easy to spin it,” she says. “It wasn’t like you’re spinning it for hours or anything.”
She was also impressed by how quickly the mop itself could be put together, and the simple button that releases the mop head for washing.
“That simple press notion, everyone can do that. So I love that.”
It’s The Little Things That Add Up
For Katrina, who regularly finds herself cleaning up after a busy family, these little details made a surprisingly big difference. She also loved the triangular mop head, particularly when it came to getting into the corners and edges that her previous mop struggled with.
“The triangle design makes it easy to get into all the little corners,” she says.
But ultimately, the big question was whether it actually cleaned her floors. Katrina’s answer was an enthusiastic yes.
“My floor has never been so clean,” she says.
Katrina was also surprised by how light and manoeuvrable the mop felt, because at just 4’11”, she says mopping can sometimes be an uncomfortable job.
“I’m not a tall person, so trying to mop is always just a horrible experience.”
But she found the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set easy to move around and able to go in different directions without feeling heavy or awkward.
And it wasn’t just the mop itself that won Katrina over. She says the bucket design solved one of her biggest mopping frustrations: accidentally tipping the bucket over.
With timber floors, getting too much water onto the floor is something she tries hard to avoid. “The amount of mop buckets I’ve tipped over and just gone everywhere,” she says.
That can turn a simple cleaning job into another mess to deal with, particularly when you’re suddenly scrambling for towels and a dry mop head.
But Katrina says the Vileda bucket feels much more stable because of its design.
And for someone who mops as often as she does, she says that has saved her time. “This thing has saved me so much time, I can’t get over it.”
The Only Mop You’ll Need
Katrina also admits that she’d previously convinced herself she needed a steam mop. She even bought one, only to discover that plugging it in every time she wanted to clean wasn’t exactly appealing.
“You have to plug it in like a vacuum. Like, that’s not fun, I don’t want to do that.”
After trying the Vileda, she says she’s no longer convinced she needs one.
“Why do you need a steam mop when you can get this one?”
For Katrina, the combination of being lightweight, easy to wring, simple to manoeuvre and able to get into those awkward corners has made mopping feel much less frustrating. And despite going into the trial with low expectations, she’s now very happy to recommend it.
“I’m not trying to sell you a product, but I’m just saying that I’m very impressed with it. It’s really good.”
Her final verdict?
“It’s been really, really good. Recommend!”
This Real Story was provided as part of a paid sponsorship opportunity. Katrina was chosen to share her story because she was sent out and tried the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, and genuinely loved it! And Vileda is so confident they’ve made the best spin mop ever, they’re backing the new & improved Easy Wring & Clean TURBO with a 5 Year Guarantee.
This mop so good and the views all are positive so I just purchased one on milkrun through Woolworths and it come with 2 mop head refills. Can’t wait to use it.
Yes, I couldn’t agree more. The Vileda spin mop is by far my favourite mop for a good thorough clean at home. I even got the landlords to purchase one for the holiday house I clean to make cleaning a breeze and get the job done properly. I always grab a spare when they’re out for half price.
Ah, I received a ‘you’re a finalist’ email from MoM for this fantastic mop but didn’t receive anything beyond that. I was looking forward to giving this a try to compare the three existing options I have but alas. Looks good, fingers crossed I can try it in the near future!
Omg! Yes! With 4 dogs and 4 teens AND the guests they bring home with them LOL our timber floors and tiles don’t stand a chance! I would love to see them add some wheels to the bottom of the bucket so that you don’t have to carry the bucket around with you.
This sounds like an excellent mop that makes cleaning so easy! I love a product that not only is as effective as advertised but makes a job less grueling. I gotta say though, a steam mop that plugs in sounds like an awful idea. I have a tineco floor mop, which is cordless and charges at a base, and it’s incredible on my white tiles.
Rebel and her family (Mum, Dad, 3 children and a bub on the way) are looking forward to putting Tallebudgera Creek Tourist Park to the family test.
