    It was okay, but we'll probably go elsewhere next time.

    • Stayed 1 night

    There was some sort of vinegary/funky smell in the room and as it was winter we could not leave the doors open to help air the room. There is no exhaust system in place in the bathroom/shower. Dinner was nice though lacking in choices. We had booked for a high floor, however were given only the entry floor.

    We travelled mid winter here and even though the water in the pool had to be 12degrees, the pool area was clean and accessible. The hotel is so close to the beach and made for a nice walk before dinner.

    Many things. The room is very tired and outdated. We paid for an oceanfront room and were put at the end of the building where we had an ocean glimpse and a lot of trees in front of us. Paint on the skirting boards was peeling. I am a repeat customer and expect to be treated better

    The location is good and the staff are friendly and helpful

    No heating in our room. Heater wasn't working. When I checked in no warning. Travelling with my family with a 3.5 year old and 9 month old baby and having no heater in winter wasn't acceptable. We raised this issue and staff advise that they can give us extra blankets or portable heater. We opted for the portable heater. As a result of this we didn't sleep properly due to kids couldn't settle with inconsistent room temperature and waking up several times with a dried throat. All we could hear is doors banging and thumping, couldn't get to sleep. We did complain about the heating and the manager upgraded us to a room with heating which was good. Spacious and and not noisy. Good sleep until we had to evacuate the at 630am for a fire alarm. Beautiful location, restaurant was very nice but overall I won't be going back from bad experience.

    Location was nice, comfortable bed

    The weather was extremely cold. The airconditioner did not work. They gave us a blow heater which was extremely noisy, there was no warm blankets on the bed, we literally froze the whole night and moved on the next day to port Macquarie.

    Staff at front desk were very helpful. The restaurant was good

    Most things, the rip off of not taking vouchers, very dodgy and misleading, the lack of working equipment in the gym, the broken sauna, the cracked tiles in my room, the level of rubbish and poor upkeep of the place in general. The poor customer service.

    The closeness to the beach.

    There was very poor signage, particularly for at night to get to the carpark, we had to attend reception 3 times after the initial request for Directions as it was difficult to find, then the remote we were provided failed to open the garage entry door. The poor girl at reception was new and stated she had not been provided orientation to be able to direct us appropriately-she was very polite and apologetic and escalated our concerns to the manager who eventually assisted.

    Space was good for what we needed.
