Guest Reviews
- Gianna (7/5): -

- Nancy (8/5): -
- Jaiminkumar Rasikbhai (5/5): good location. but property is very old. for the money spent there are much better properties - location of the property is excellent - Misleading Capacity and Furnishings
The property was much smaller than anticipated for the price charged. The living room had only one chair and a two-seater sofa—clearly inadequate for a group of six guests. This made communal time uncomfortable and impractical.
- Outdoor Spa Misrepresentation
A key reason we selected this property was the outdoor spa shown prominently in the listing photos. Upon arrival, we were surprised to find it permanently closed, with no prior notice. This was misleading and deeply disappointing.
- TV Connectivity Issues
We traveled with a two-year-old and expected basic entertainment options. Unfortunately, none of the TVs had Wi-Fi connectivity. The living room TV required an Ethernet cable connection to a router located behind the unit, making it impossible to stream content like YouTube. This should have been checked and disclosed.
- Cleanliness Concerns
Most concerning was the discovery of rotten food under the sofa by our toddler while playing. This indicates a serious lapse in cleaning standards and poses a health risk, especially for young children.
- Belinda (8/5): Relaxion with spectacular views - This unit is situated in a brilliant location with spectacular views . The unit has everything you need to relax and take in the views on the huge open verandah .
Close to everything like restaurants , shops, beach, walking path.
Very quiet as well The king size bed was uncomfortable for me as its a hard mattress but thats just my opinion as alot of people like firm mattresses.
- Jawid12 (10/5): -
- Michelle (2/5): Very poor -
- Mark (8/5): Centrally located and Nice views..!!! - Centrally located A little too much outdoor area. Also the sofa bed was not a good sleeping pad.
- Anita (9/5): Best location in Ettalong. - It's a fantastic location with great views and an enormous deck. The pool is great. Building is a bit dated. Not much lounge seating for a 2br apartment.
- Katherine (9/5): Superb -
- Robert (9/5): Superb -
- Kulwinder (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (10/5): You can't fault the location. Maybe without the grandkids would have made it pleasurable. - Ideally, it was the location, because we'd been there before. Thought we'd take our daughter and two grandkids, because of the pool. But weather was a bit iffy. Also our other daughter, husband and two kids were also in the Mantra for two nights, we for three nights. Also liked the closeness of Ettalong Diggers for dinner and other eateries in town. Well, where do we start. As all five us were in the two bedroom, two bathroom apartment, we found one bathroom had no storage whatsoever. Our daughter used our bathroom for storage. No suitcase storage for her suitcase either, had to leave in hallway. Bad smell coming from kitchen cupboard, aircon didn't work, and on inspection, it needed a good clean! I wasn't going to touch it.
- Haylie (5/5): Passable - Aircons were broken. And there were cockroaches, dirty dishes.
- Ryan (9/5): Excellent -
- Peta (8/5): Very good -
- Amanda (8/5): Great weekend getaway - Location was excellent - very comfortable unit with great views from the oversized deck! Clearer instructions for after 5pm arrival would have been helpful… ie: level 4, Mantra building. One of the swipe keys didn’t work (just looked well used).
- Yogini (8/5): Very good -
- Christine (9/5): Superb - I picked my access cards up from Raine and Horn and the property manager was very friendly and professional. The staff at the Mantra who you have to walk past at the accommodation are exceptional. Particularly the lovely Erin. The Mantra need to pay this woman more money. All of the Mantra staff that we encountered were just so nice and so helpful from the awesome reception desk ( who didn’t have to help us since we were a private stay) to the cleaners in the Mantra who happily took away our garbage. The location is perfect for Ettalong, a short walk to cafe heaven or a nice morning walk along the beach front to the Ocean view surf club (best breakfast burger ever). The view from this unit was stunning and our afternoons lying on the deck chairs looking out over the water reading a book will be missed. This property, while exceptionally staffed is looking like me, in need of a facelift. The underground car park was closed for at least 6 hours due to some horror sewerage leak…… so guests had to park outside in the Armageddon rain event.
- Hunter (3/5): Only book this place if there is no where else available. - The free parking available. The rooms are so small that you barely have enough room to walk around the bed or get ready in them. The bathrooms had a terrible smell and also are so small that the shower door hits the toilet and only half opens. The living area also doesn’t have enough seating and the balcony while massive, has absolutely 0 undercover from rain or wild sun. The hallways leading to this room from the elevator also smell like fish.
The ad also says access to a spa and gym facilities which are currently closed for renovations at the moment and we had 0 notice of this prior.
- Athraa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Laze (9/5): Great stay - Great location, view, facilities Small bedrooms, small dining lounge, no shade in terrace.
- Lyn (7/5): Good - Perfect location for us. Used the big balcony overlooking the water for some pre wedding photos. Good facilities in the unit. Helpful staff at the key pickup offices. It was all good.
- Robyn (9/5): Very relaxing. Close to everything. Comfortable beds and patio was huge. We'll come again. - did not include breakfast. Location was fantastic, right on beach and eateries. sink in second bathroom was tiny
- Jo (9/5): Great accommodation and pool, would come again for sure! - Great pool, lots of sun loungers, very clean accommodation, nicely decorated, air con very welcome, huge balcony with comfy sunloungers No air con in master bedroom, sheet hadn’t been changed on sofa bed, would have loved cushions on the pool sun loungers!
- Branko (7/5): Good - I liked the location and the swimming pool for the kids. Flat batteries in the remotes ie foxtel and air con.
No further rubbish bags provided for additional rubbish during a 4 night stay.
Pictures deceiving on Booking.com website.
No coffee machine. Confirmation email said that there was a coffee machine.
- Emma (8/5): Had a lovely stay with girlfriends and was within walking distance to everything. - Good size apartment with an amazing balcony. Second bathroom was really small.
- Gow (10/5): Location, views and luxury - Location and views are amazing. Feels like luxury.

- Marylene (10/5): Exceptional -
- George (9/5): Superb -
- Cathy (8/5): Very good -
- Andrew (4/5): great view and balcony. small apartment. - view not clean.
- Annette (8/5): we had a great stay besides what was wrong with the unit. The negative about the property was not enough elevators waite - location, nice pool, lovely balconies but couldn’t use as no shade so hot. No shade to sit under on the balcony also couldn’t sit on the chairs as bird faeces were all over the chairs.
No air con in the main bedroom the bed was not comfortable in the second bedroom. The lounge was terrible couldn’t sit on it you would fall into a hole.
