Meet the reviewing family for BIG4 Ocean Beach …

Virginie reviews NRMA Ocean Beach Holiday ParkVirginie and her family (Mum, Dad and 3 very busy little boys) are so excited about their weekend at the BIG4 Ocean Beach.

With their youngest son just a year old, it’s been a while since they’ve been away so the call of swimming pools purpose built for kids of all ages, Kidz Korner, jumping pillows and a cafe by the pool has Virginie super excited about getting away.

When it comes to a cabin holiday, Virginie says it ticks every box!

  • Absolutely loved it!!!

    We stayed here a couple of weeks ago for a big family holiday with brothers, sisters, mother and father and children. We stayed in the safari tents and must say I was a bit apprehensive about it, but once I saw them I was so impressed!! The tents were clean, spacious, the shower was amazing and it was overall a great experience, the kids loved the feeling of camping and loved the wildlife running around and coming up to you. The staff at the park were fantastic, so friendly! The kids loved the park, jumping pillow, splash away bay. Unfortunately we didn’t get to try the water slide and pools, but it didn’t matter as there were so much to do! We went to the markets at ettalong on Saturday, went ice skating at Erina, but to be honest you don’t even need to leave the park as there is so much to do there! Our family will definitely be back, but for longer this time! I tried to upload a photo of the safari tents and park but it kept saying invalid referer!

  • NRMA Ocean Beach Umina NSW

    We didnt get pick to review this however Me and my four children having been going to Umina Ocean Beach for a couple of years now and we love it. My childrens ages vary from 18-5 and there is something for all of us. They loved the new water park feature that was added in November, the pool is a great hit. But best of all is the program of activities that are there for the children and a great way for families to bond together.

    We will be going back year after year

  • We did not got picked to review the NRMA Ocean Beach Holiday Park but we visited earlier this year.
    We got there early in the morning to do some sight seeing after a very trouble free drive from Sydney and got a very nice welcome from the staff here with a welcome pack full of ideas on how to spend our weekend.
    After settling in in out Seabreeze townhouse, we loved it. It was clean and comfortable to stay for the whole family. I will definitely recommend everyone to give this place a try. My kids loved every minute of the trip

  • Ok...

    We stayed three days here and I would say this holiday park is for families. The beach, pool and cabin was good. Indeed it was quite place to stay, no shouting or drunken people. But you should be careful cleaners. I left my necklace in a cabin when I checked it out. I realized hlaf an hour later and rang the office but they told me the cabin was already cleaned and there was nothing left. It was only 30 minutes after checkout and my necklace has gone. Of course I acknowledge that it is all my fault but no one can access the cabin except cleaners. So here is advice. Don’t leave your valualbe things in the room whether you are near there or not.



  • Our fantastic weekend

    Finally after 2 days at a new job and after over 1 year of maternity leave, I am awake long enough to write this final review.
    I cannot thank Mouth Of Mums enough for picking us to review the NRMA Ocean Beach Holiday Park, we all had such a fantastic time!
    The staff were all very lovely, helpful and made us feel like royalty the whole weekend. The kids got to have fabulous times on the go karts, learning to surf and in the games room. And we all, as family, made great memories on our first getaway as a family of 5 at the beach, pools and making the most of everything the Park has to offer.
    The cabin was lovely, had all the amenities we needed and more including a spa bath which the boys made the most of! It was very nicely laid out and located straight across from the beach.
    We tried to book in for this Christmas as my mum is coming from overseas but unfortunately everything is already booked out…which goes to show yet again how amazing this place is.
    I could not recommend it enough and we will definitely going back at least for a weekend or during school holidays next year!
    More photos will be posted in the next couple of days.

  • Last day

    After a morning filled with go karts, jumping pillows and pools, we are heading home!
    Wish we could have stayed longer!
    Will post our final review once we’re home.



  • Such a busy day

    After lunch today, we headed to the pools…there are 2 pools: a toddler one with big mushroom fountains and the main pool with a slippery dip and cascade. We all had a great time and even Thomas tried the slippery dip with his big brothers!
    I then went with the 2 older boys to the local Surf Life Saving Club located just a couple of minutes down the road for their surf lesson. They had a blast in small and bigger waves and I have already been asked to add a surfboard to the Christmas list.
    After another run on the jumping pillows, we headed into town and got some very delicious and copious take away noodles as recommended by the staff here.
    It is now not even 10pm and everyone, except from me, is in bed and asleep looking forward to enjoying more of everything this holiday park has to offer before heading home after a late check out.
    I even managed to do a load of washing tonight which is now in the dryer ( all in our cabin and so convenient) which saves me having to do it when we get home tomorrow afternoon. This cabin really has everything we need in terms of amenities and we are located right across from the beach.



  • Beach and go kart

    We went to the beach this morning, it is such a beautiful day! The boys had a great time playing in the water and on the sand. They then headed off to get their go karts while bub has his morning nap, they were very impressed by how fast they could go and had a blast going around the park!
    They are now on the jumping pillows while we wait for bub to wake up so we can head off to the pools before lunch.
    We got some meat from Woolworth in town yesterday so looking forward to a BBQ in this perfect weather.



  • Brekkie

    After a yummy pancake brekkie from the barn, we are heading to the beach before the kids try out the go karts.



  • Diner

    After dragging the kids from the pool last night, we got 2 pizzas and chips from the Bluebottle cafe onsite.
    The food was delicious and was gone in no time!
    We are all very excited about everything we have planned for today! Will keep you updated throughout the day!



  • Our townhouse

    .



  • Fantastic start to the weekend

    We are the lucky family that got picked to review the NRMA Ocean Beach Holiday Park!
    We got here this afternoon after a very trouble free drive from Sydney and got a very nice welcome from the staff here with a welcome pack full of ideas on how to spend our weekend.
    After settling in in out Seabreeze townhouse, we got to tour the park with the lovely Emma and booked in for the 2 older boys to do surf lessons tomorrow afternoon. With already 2 sessions on the jumping pillows and the playground, we are heading off to the pools for a swim and to pick up some dinner at the cafe.

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

Women trying Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé.
A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

Find Chapel Hill Enlightened at Dan Murphy’s right now for $17.99 each.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

    Reply

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

    Reply

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

    Reply

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

    Reply

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
