Guest Reviews
- Kelly-Jane (6/5): Enjoyable, and good value - No breakfast. Room was clean and larger than expected. Staff were friendly but could be more proactive in advising parking and breakfast etc. For the price for two nights it was excellent value. The whole resort needs upgrading, bathrooms are tired and sad and old. Tiles are chipped and broken, and the plastic shower screen and step in bath is very 1980!!!!!! Yuk
- Maureen (9/5): Pleasant. Easy access to room. Clean and quiet. Good value for $ - Clean modern and spacious Shower over the bathtub. Lighting is limited.
Bathroom vanity outside bathroom
- Brad (8/5): Excellent - Cost Due to road upgrade difficulties on entry/exit; this out of resort’s control
- Leah (1/5): - The food in the restaurant was good Incorrect room.
Incorrect bedding
Dirty bedding
Rude staff
- Obrien (10/5): - It was a absolute delight will return foe a extended stay for sure with the kids Not a thing all aces
- Ellie (8/5): -
- Tony (7/5): - Access to the property when coming from Coffs was dreadful. Due to road works. No doubt when roadworks are completed it will be better. I arrived just on dark and it was pouring with rain and there was no direct access from the north bound lanes. had to travel north a few km to the next location exit to access the south bound lanes to head back to exit to the hotel.
- Kelly (9/5): - Spa Nil
- andrew (6/5): Lovely location and ambience. - Great location, room was spacious. Nice buffet breakfast. Bed was way too soft, very uncomfortable. Fridge was a bit small. Air conditioning for personal setting is disabled, which is odd. Only broad temp settings available and controlled externally. Though one can turn it off or on.
Bathroom is ok but dated. Has shower bath only, this info not in the description.
- Megan (8/5): - Staff were friendly and good value The bed
- Yvonne (4/5): Resort is old, and no amount of work can disguise the need for rooms to be remodelled and cleaned - Nothing Room dank and smelly. Bathroom very old, stained and marks from on bottom of the bath.
- Christie (9/5): -
- Suzie (4/5): - Everything in one location was nice You can't control the temperature of your room and it was hot and stuffy, opening the doors didn't help and then it rained so we had to shut them anyway. It was very unpleasant in our room.
The bed wasn't very comfortable.
Our room was called a garden view but all we looked at was roofs and some tall trees.
- Sharee (10/5): Fun, relaxed and had the best time. - The staff were helpful and friendly, it was clean, and the food was great!
- Nathan (10/5): -
- Bestine (7/5): It was good but could be more maintained - The pool, Jacuzzi and waterslide were fun food was good. There was a snake near the stairs from the pool.
- Tina (8/5): All in all, pretty good! - The foyer as you walk in is beautiful Rooms were a little run down.
- Sheralee (6/5): - Location due to bypass causing confusion to entrance.
- Alison (9/5): Comfortable stay with great value for money - Friendly staff, great facilities and clean, comfortable accommodation Roadwork makes it hard to access if travelling north-this is only temporary
- Sharon (8/5): -
- Jason (9/5): -
- Larissa (6/5): Good enough - Location. Staff were lovely and the room size and bathroom were a great size. The bed was comfy enough for someone that usually likes a fairly soft mattress. All the pillows smelt like heads. They need to have a better pillow replacement program. I shouldn’t have to smell the last 100 heads that have slept on the pillows. Otherwise it was a good stay and a good hotel.
- David (7/5): -
- Gillian (10/5): - The staff at the Horizon restaurant and bar where absolutely brilliant. Especially Brady fro. The bar and Erica at the restaurant Absolutely nothing, was perfect
- Anthony (6/5): This is an old property and needs some updating to occur - The room was nice and clean. Great views. Good area No heating in the room. Lack of staff.
- Linda (7/5): -
- Jacqui (8/5): - Beautiful location. Great Staff. Facilities are great That had to pay extra for WiFi
- Darryn (9/5): Great - Lager rooms No sauna
- Caroline (8/5): -
- Jason (8/5): -
- Adel (8/5): -
- Chris (10/5): Great accom and location - Size of room road works out front
- DENNIS (9/5): - The best bed after a long trip All good
- Teresa (10/5): -
- Emma (10/5): -
- Louise (7/5): Great family or couples place to stay but go elsewhere for your food - Tne hotel although a little older is very well maintained has lovely outlook and pool rooms are spacious as well parking is great, they have a games area for kids which i am sure would be a hit. The restaurant is really sub par. the staff are friendly but the menu is very clublike and getting up to order your own food and drinks was a bit of a let down. We stayed here several months ago and the restaurant back then was fabulous, so not sure why the change
- Fiona (9/5): -
- Glenda (8/5): - The rooms are very big and bright all with balconies. We had the garden view which overlooked the car park and garden. Suggest top floor with beach view if you want to pay a little extra. Shower and bathroom were very good. Value for money The resort definitely needs some love and care. The building and surrounds are in need of a face lift and some money spent. We stayed there about 30 years ago and it was a luxury resort then but not now.
- Ching Chun (7/5): - The room is reasonably clean There were construction and hard to find the correct exit to the hotel and is away from the down town
- Darcy Rose (10/5): - Absolutely everything. Wonderful location, super pretty decor. Bed was 10/10 comfy. Dinner was absolutely superb, as was the All You Can Eat breakfast buffet. Room was clean, tidy, spacious. Absolute delight staying here!! Nil! Everything was wonderful.
- Benito (7/5): - Nice but a little dated. Great pool and large rooms. Location a little hard to get to.
- Bayliss (9/5): Very comfortable. Would have like a room microwave or a common area to eat and heat food like Abode - The front desk staff was friendly and he gave excellent information. It will be better when the roadwork is finished.
- JJ (2/5): -
- Erica (10/5): -
- Ailsa (8/5): . - . .
- Maria (10/5): Perfect would stay again - Location and size of rooms Outdoor carpark
- Lisa (7/5): Expensive - Location to beach good. Not far from shopping Far too expensive in restaurant. Only ate there once
- Julio (8/5): - The bed
- Coenrad (10/5): We were utterly surprised by what Coffs Harbour had to offer, we will be booking again! Lovely staff! - Everything! At first, I thought we were at the wring place because the affordable room price didn’t seem to fit with the luxurious resort. Breakfast was quite expensive, for very average food. Dinner was around the same price for 2 people, and presented much more worth.
- Woldhuis (7/5): Enjoyed the active options and had a good night sleep. - Good location, lots of facilities. Easy walk to the beach. Pool was very clean and pleasant. Spa was beautiful and hot! It felt tired. Lots of spots looked worn and not damaged, just worn, like it could Do with a little love.
Some of the arcade games would take your money and not play. The internet stoped working at about 8:30 and so couldn’t finish the show I was watching. The bath was a bit rough. Not bad, just a bit rough.
- iLsa (10/5): A slice of heaven - Stunning resort - will definitely be back!
- Liz (6/5): Needs a lot of work - Renovation - Location Needs to be renovated. Rooms too cold, breakfast cost too much, food was cold. Bathroom tiles cracked. The driveway entry to dark from the main road. The outside sign not visible at night.
- Francesco (8/5): We had a fantastic family stay over the Easter weekend. We all enjoyed it immensely. - Rooms were great and the staff kindly accommodated our request for side by side rooms.
Pool area was great and well maintained.
All of the staff were extremely helpful and friendly no matter what our request. We were happy with most facets during our stay.
We did feel like the gym could do with some updated equipment.
The sauna door also didn't lock properly making it hard to maintain the heat.
- elizabeth jane (1/5): I would not stay there again - Good location on road from Sydney to Brisbane It is old and dirty
Has not modernised in over 30 years
Terrible food
But charges like a modern up to date hotel
- Jade (9/5): - Large spacious rooms. So close to the beach! Feels very private.
- Pitstock (6/5): - Rooms where clean staff where nice A bit expensive compared to other resorts in the same area that we stayed at
- Ankit (8/5): -
- Vicki (8/5): -
- Jaskirat Singh (8/5): -
- Natalie (10/5): -
- Lauren (9/5): -
- Wen (3/5): Inflexible stay - Clean and tidy Very inflexible, every stay we have here, staff will never allow i.e late check out, even though there are plenty of rooms available
- Michael (10/5): -
- Leila (10/5): -
- Kieron (8/5): - Beautiful location Bathroom needs renovation
- Teasha (10/5): - The staff are amazing the place is beautiful and clean .
- Gillian (5/5): - Clean rooms, polite friendly staff Couldn’t work out how to adjust temp or turn of aircon, room was so freezing cold I couldn’t sleep.
- Gerard (8/5): -
- Mahira (7/5): -
- suzanne (6/5): - Good resort. Rooms a bit tired

- Taylor (10/5): - Everything was amazing, definitely will be back
- world's gaming channel (8/5): -
- Lorraine (9/5): Really enjoyable - All good
- Udari (7/5): The stay was very pleasant and enjoyable. The beach is beautiful, the kids loved the pools and the room was clean and sp - The ambience, the room, the kids activities and the beach The view from room balcony and the cost of the food
- Kerri (9/5): Very comfortable rooms - Nice rooms Restaurant was not as fancy as I thought it would be
- Samantha (10/5): -
- Maria Lucia (9/5): We had a wonderful stay - Loved the large rooms and pool. The restaurant food was over priced and not that great.
- Jill (8/5): Comfortable stay and friendly staff. - The dining area and food were great. Staff were friendly and helpful. The pool area was substantial, and catered for all ages. The ocean view was amazing, and the closeness to the beach was good. The lighting in the rooms was inadequate. The air-conditioning was below par- patrons are unable to adjust the temperature or airflow. The only option was off or on. Had to be off for me as the airflow was too cool.
There was no "snack" type food available out of dining hours. Eg to have with coffee /tea.
Would be good to have outdoor playground area for kids.
- James (6/5): Disappointing stay. Won’t be back. - The pool was great. The food was great also. The noise from other guests. Kids screaming and running up and down the corridors. Parents screaming at each other. Babies crying. It’s a big hotel, maybe don’t have everyone stay in the same section or patrol these areas and tell noisy guests to shut up.
Perhaps this is too “family” and just doesn’t suit the holiday I was looking for.
- Victoria (7/5): -
- Renee (8/5): Always a pleasure! - Location is great, staff are so friendly Nothing
- Greg (7/5): Great little hideaway. - Location was hard to find due to major road upgrade, once found however the venue was great. Great breakfast and also very substantial evening meals. Finding the location.

- Allyson (10/5): Very beautiful place with good food - Beautiful and inviting Lack of lighting in the room
- Abbey (10/5): Great experience - That there was a pool and access to a beach The washing machine facilities
Also that there was no kitchenette
- XIAOYUAN (10/5): - Great parking, unfortunately we only stayed for one night . Should have stayed one more day to explore.
- Robert (10/5): Enjoyable and comfortable for our overnight stay - Location and convenience of facilities for eating and relaxing Certain rooms still have showers in bath - which for senior patrons is unattractive due to difficulties getting in and out of shower and the associated danger of potential falling out of shower
- Martin (7/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): Highly recommend - It was very luxurious
- Karen (10/5): -
- Patricia (9/5): Great for a day or two - Location Aircon in room was too high
- Astrid (9/5): Serene and comfortable convenience, with a satisfactory breakfast buffet to boot - Facilities, friendly staff. No Fire Warden insight when we were evacuated.
- Anne (6/5): Great room, ordinary food. - The room was great - plenty of space for luggage and good inclusions like balcony, lounge, swivel TV. The food is expensive and ordinary, and the restaurant was over-airconditioned. You are somewhat stuck there with nothing else around for choice within walking distance - driving in this area is fraught because of roadworks. Gym did not have a cycle.
