You would expect that when a group of 8 of you check in they would assist with getting all your luggage to your room which was a big FAIL. The room we stayed in was very clean and had generous rooms. The kitchen was very well appointed and well equipped with what you would expect from a resort. The Buree we stayed in was the family room and it had four bedrooms with three bathrooms, one of which had a spa bath. The free Austar/Foxtel was great for the days that weren't very good weather wise but be warned, the resort offers WIFI but it's very expensive. If you have time to use or need internet access, you may be better off going to your local telco and buying a wifi/3G USB dongle. Plenty of parking but a fair distance from the reception if you have lots of luggage to carry. Although the resort does have use of trolleys. The restaurant overlooking the ocean was very picturesque and the food was very nice and very reasonably priced. Lunchtime time mains were around $15 and very tasty. The many pools on the grounds of the resort meant there was no shortage of cooling off after a day of sight seeing around Coffs Harbour. Even on wet days, the outdoor heated spa baths were very relaxing. Then of course there was the beach which was only a short walk from the resort. A wonderful location for families as there were plenty of things to do. The kids swimming area with water slide was a big hit with my niece. Final analysis: It's an 8 out of 10 for me. Great family getaway. Good way to unwind and relax.

I only stayed a night but the easy beach access allowed me to get in a late night and an early morning swim. The staff were all friendly and helpful with the questions I asked and requests for suggestions.

Coffs Harbour stay This is our third stay at this hotel and…read moreit's still our preferred option for Coffs Harbour. The rooms are well designed and modern and the bed is super comfortable. It's in a terrific location on the Pacific Highway close to the shops and the restaurants. February 2022 Still the best! This is our second stay at the CBD Motor Inn and we still think that it's the best option for a Coffs Harbour stay. The motel was renovated a couple of years ago, so the rooms are fresh and modern. We really like the location because it's just a short walk to the shops and restaurants, but this does mean that it can be noisy because it's right on the Pacific Highway. Earplugs are supplied and you can also ask for a room at the back of the complex. We did find the bathrooms a little bit too small for comfort, so it's not a great option for a longer stay. 2 September 2019 Best motel in town!! This is an older style motel that has been given a complete makeover. The rooms are spacious, modern and finished to a high standard. The bathrooms are a little compact, but other than that the room has everything you need. We loved the extra touches - leaf tea, fridge, microwave, flannel, large fluffy towels and super comfortable bed. It's in a great location on the Pacific Highway and just a short walk to the shops and restaurants. It can be a little noisy though so try to get a room at the back of the property (earplugs are provided). Our host Rodney was super friendly and helpful - gave us some good restaurant and activity suggestions!

Honestly, there really isn't anything all that special about this place, though considering the…read morenumber of people that were crammed into the front bar when I was here suggests that maybe I'm in the minority. Actually, I'd probably suggest that this place is just a typical suburban pub, though it happens to be located in a regional centre. I wasn't too particularly thrilled with the place, especially since there are better pubs in town to visit.

It was pretty busy and there seemed to be a passing parade of backpackers that access their accomodation through the pub. We sat near the street level on comfy lounges where the wide open windows let us listen to the traffic and sirens. The food being served to the patrons looked ample and was being devoured by the backpackers so it must have been OK. I tried the local beer; it was cold and light.

Boambee Bay resort A…read morefantastic resort. About the best you can stay in for adults and kids. It's neat and orderly with great rooms and terrific facilities inside and out. It's right on the water, both the estuary and the beach are within a stone's throw. You have a superb surrounding area in easy reach from this resort. We stayed in a two bedroom unit, number 1008. The unit was just the right size for us and our friend and it's mighty cleverly laid out. The separation between the two bedrooms is fantastic. The bathrooms and spaces in the way mean you can barely hear anything between the two rooms. The living room is fine too as is the kitchen and dining area. There's everything you could want here. We loved the screened in porch at the back to sit in day and night. We loved the layout and facilities here. The mini golf course is a real cracker. Beware the perilous second hole! The pool and spas are nice too. There is also a nicely appointed gym. The staff at this resort are fantastic. They are lovely people and very chatty and helpful. Every dealing we had with them was great. They keep the resort in superb condition. It was immaculate inside and out. The rooms were spotless. The grounds looked superb the whole time we were there. There are very few downsides to the place. There was no air conditioning in the room but it certainly wasn't needed when we were there. The prevailing light breezes were enough through the front door and screened in porch. There was a ceiling fan anyway in our room if we needed it. The car spaces are a bit tight but perfectly manageable. In the end, we loved the resort so much we could only think of one tiny suggested improvement. I'm only raising it so I can raise something. We thought the supplied drinking glasses in the unit were a bit too small. They don't hold enough and we recommend that new ones be purchased at some stage in the future. Overall we really really liked this place. It's the best of all the time shares we've stayed on. We had a great time here and in Coffs, Sawtell, Nambucca Heads etc etc. it's a great area and this is the perfect base from which to explore it.

This motel has the smallest pool I've ever seen. We thought it was cute (because we didn't use it), but I bet it's a lot less cute when you're trying to do laps. The place is a little outdated but everything looked very clean. The room was spacious (we even had a little spare bedroom in ours) and free parking is available. There are a lot of great little restaurants and the beach are within walking distance of the motel.
