    Rooms a bit tired

    Location off road was perfect for a stopover whilst travelling to Sydney. Restaurant was very good.

    Overall loved it. We joined the breakfast buffet which had a variety of meal options and coffee.

    Would say that the bathroom requires an upgrade. It doesn't seem to fit the "modern style" of the bedroom and the tall glass windows. Another thing that I wasn't sure off, as it was a weekend, is how often the entrance driveway from the main road is cleared - there was large chunks of tree debris on the road driving in.

    Loved the location and accessibility from the carpark into the front - and the access to trolleys to get bags from car into the hotel room. Weather wasn't great, but there are plenty of indoor activities that can be done while weather plays up. Loved the space of the room we booked (two adults).

    The air conditioner was set to a 'one' temperature for the complex. We found it to be too cold and so did not turn it on during our stay.

    The Opal Cove met or exceeded our expectations. The room was clean and the size of the room suited us. The balcony was of a size where you could stretch out. The restaurant provided a good range of food options with reasonable pricing.

    We get told that we wouldn’t be able to have food as resort booked out. This was disappointing as we wanted to use the restaurant.

    Was great even though it was just a short stay

    The coffee quality in the bar could do with an improvement and the gym didn’t open until 7am. Bathrooms are a little dated.

    This property is a gem of Coffs Harbour. Settled amongst an expansive property, Opal Cove provides a comfortable stay with clean and hospitable facilities. Our family loved walking to the beach after breakfast. Good value for money.

    Water temperature was very hot and maybe a hazard for small children. Not able to adjust the temperature in the room other than to turn the aircon off. Aircon is set to the temp of the entire resort. We were a bit cold but Staff were great and brought more blankets for us. Breakfast buffet was ok except not stocked for the busy morning we experienced.

    Great facilities, the property grounds were lovely. The kids loved everything that was on offer here. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed for a night.

    Air con old and hard to use. Condition of room is an easy fix, gives perception it’s not clean but believe its condition that lets it down. Confused by food options for family, just done Uber eats instead.

    Room was spacious, spacious bath was good.
