I don’t even know where to start.  This old run down dump has nothing going for it at all.  How the shire even give it the approval to stay open has got me stumped.  From its old, unkept rooms that smell like they haven’t been cleaned in years, to the pool where the artificial turf is riddled with holes that appear like they have been eaten by rats…………….. After having to go to the back of the building so we could enter (front part of the ‘Resort” looked abandoned) we kept saying to ourselves it can’t be that bad……….how wrong we were.  I am not a fussy person at all but after being given our room key, we entered the room and then turn around and handed it back in.  The smell was over powering and the furniture was so outdated it was dangerous.  We then drove back to Broome and had to find accomodation. To be honest I would have been happier sleeping in my car, an empty bus shelter or even in the local park.  Don’t do it people

Don’t do it !!!!!

My friend and I needed to leave our car at the King Sound Resort as we were doing the overnight house boat tour of Horizontal Falls. Whilst we were on our overnight boat cruise, our car was broken in to. This was due to the fact that the fences surrounding the carpark were as old and crusty as the first dinosaur to roam the earth. We returned from our lovely boat cruise, only to find our car smashed up and all of our belongings on the ground. While we waited for the police to arrive, we had to witness a large, aggressive dispute between the owner of the “resort” and a few locals walking by. Besides all of this, the “resort” alone is an absolute dump. I don’t know how it can even be referred to as a “resort”.  God forbid anyone spend a cent to stay there overnight. It’s rusty, old, uninviting and dirty. I would highly recommend people don’t leave their car overnight, unless you want a broken car window & many of your valuables stolen from roaming, opportunists.

Run down wreck

When you enter the King Sound Resort it feels like you have stepped back in time. I can see that when it opened in the 80s it would have been the best hotel in the area. The hotel is huge, but it appears only some of the rooms are being used. The restaurant area is clean and comfortable with good pub food and pool tables. The staff a very friendly and helpful. The pool area is great with a shade sail and seating. Rooms are old, but clean. I would recommend if you’re not looking for accommodation that isn’t the newest, but decent. 

Old but good

I stayed with my family at this resort for one night before doing the Horizontal Falls tour. The beds were comfortable, the shower was good and cars are kept secure in a locked parking area. 
On the other hand, some of the lights in our room didn’t work and the whole resort in general is very run-down and could do with some renovations and refurbishment. I felt like we stepped back into the 80s, and I’m sure it would have been a great hotel in its time. 
In addition, when we went to check in there was no one there at the reception desk, it felt like the whole place was abandoned. When we rang the contact number there was also no answer. We eventually got to check in by contacting the Derby Visitor Centre first.

Took a step back in time

The room was just the bed had dirty sheets. When I was booking in I said to reception I wanted clean linen and she assured us that it was.She was  very rude and when got to the room guess what dirty sheets. It really need a revamp and New owner's. 

Room unfit

My wife & I stayed here last night. I note the last review is dated August 2017. Things have deteriorated even more since then.
Upon arrival the driveway is broken & shattered concrete with major weed infestation. All gardens and are dry & dead with no sign of attempts at making the entrance or any other part of the hotel presentable. The reception was closed and the number to ring failed to answer. Waited a while & tried again. Person responding had no knowledge of any guests to check in. She attended, found our booking & advised us we were the only guests for the entire hotel.
Somewhat eerie & more like a horror movie script. She inquired as to whether or not we required meals. Despite all advertising the restaurant and bars are all closed. Her surprise at us checking in was accompanied with the comment "It has been like this for 2 years". 
The room was very basic but clean, equipped with one of the oldest TVs you could imagine. There was coffee & tea making supplied however the kettle did not fit under the washbasin tap so half the water was lost upon removing it. We had to source our own meals elsewhere. There was no mention regarding internet or Wi-Fi.
Our recommendation is to avoid this hotel until new owners are found and a complete refurbishment is undertaken. There are several other much better options in Derby.

Needs new owners & upgrade

The whole place looked run-down. For not-so-nimble, the access was poor and we had a room that was remote from the entry. Food was available, though we didn't eat there. Off-street parking is available, but a long way from our room.
