What the place is like

Past notices

Staff accommodation

In the past ad, the live-in manager received a free RV stall but had to supply their own trailer and pay their own electricity; Wi-Fi was complimentary and on-site parking was listed ¹. These terms belong to that ad only. The resort also has a 'Seasonal Workers' camping page, which is for paying guests, not staff housing ².

Staff accommodation terms by role

Staff terms come from the employer's own notices. Visitor facilities are not staff benefits.
