This place is the worst hotel I have EVER been to. I'd give it 0 stars if I could! First of all, we…read morespent half an hour finding the actual resort! The lounge was horrible as the bartenders and waiters were rude. The drinks were extremely expensive as well. Food was ice cold. The hotel itself was disgusting. Somebody relieved themself in the pool so we couldn't use that and there were cockroaches in the room. On the bed there were stains and bedbugs. Asked for a room change and after a full hour struggle the management finally gave us a different room. In that room, the bathroom was cramped and smelled horrible. Bad bad bad. 1/5 stars.

Personally this place is all you need. My only gripe is the rooms could come with soap, paper…read moretowels and a face life update to the carpet would help. But regardless, this tropical paradise has stunning views and waking up to the thousands of tropic bird sounds was magic. You feel like you're on a resort island being so close to the beach and in the middle of all these banana trees. I would easily return, and ensure I had paper towels with me...

We only paid $112 for our room on last minute standby rates. The pool is not heated, which is a bit of a let down, but there are tennis courts, mini golf, an arcade, a beach and heaps more to keep the kids occupied while Mum and Dad get some R and R. Probably not the best place for a couples retreat, but for a family it would do the job fine.

No tea/coffee facilities in the room, but they have vending machines which take coins only. Rooms are very small - nowhere convenient to put your luggage.

BAR: The selection of drinks available was satisfactory, and the prices were quite reasonable for a resort. Some of the staff seemed quite inexperienced i.e did not know how to mix basic drinks or were various wines were kept but overall was not too bad. DINNER: This is were it started to go down hill a little. The oysters Kilpatrick were OK, just and were quite expensive. The mains were tasty, but the sauce and accompaniments seemed to be very store bought. Once again the price was way out of proportion to the offering. At this stage probably still a 3.5 star experience when you take into account we were at a resort so high prices are to be expected with a captive audience. BUFFET BREAKFAST: Terrible, just terrible. Pay $25 a head for a buffet breakfast and you do NOT expect this. Coffee machine out of water that no one bothers to top up, no bacon, scrambled eggs that are so runny they border on liquid and a toast station that had barely anything but crusts left. Overall I would not eat here again. The accommodation was fine, but for food just go into Coffs. There are enough fine eating establishments there that you do not need to inflict this place on yourself.
