Sharks at Kareela reviews
5 Star Review by Sharen Hubber
Made a last minute booking for 11 people and the staff went out of their way to accommodate an early sitting for us. The atmosphere was relaxed and the food delicious. The club itself is well set out and comfortable. Will definitely return.
4 Star Review by Matthew Yong-O'Gorman
The golf course is a very nice course - feels very local. Love the elevation changes in the front nine and the suburban feel of the back nine. The carpark is in desperate need of a touch up - at the very least some of the craters need to be filled in!
4 Star Review by David Carroll
Went for a family dinner. Great service, location. Not all meals were great, but it is club food after all! Not rushing back.
5 Star Review by Kuan-Yu Lan
Very nice club to have family get together. Good view from the restaurant to the golf course. Very nice food selections and wonderful staff members they are very friendly to kids as well. Will definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a good restaurant for family.
5 Star Review by Gregory Long
Every Saturday morning we come here for coffee. The barrista remembers us and our order and always welcomes us with a smile and a chat. Those small things really make it special. It's a large club house with a bar, restaurant, cafe and pokies. Lots of seating. There's a small stage for a band and a book nook. The view over the fairway is beautiful and the staff are really friendly. Definitely visit.
