This motel is a real gem. Rooms are simple but very spacious, super clean and very comfortable. Small pantry with a microwave so you can prepare your own food if you like. Beds are very comfortable. Bathrooms are newly renovated and very practical. All rooms look out on the garden which is beautifully maintained. Very good value for money. Absolute recommendation for one or more nights!

Location couldn't have been better, a stone's throw away from the harbour with all restaurants along the coast. Right in the heart of the central street with Woolworths being a 2 minute walk away. We didn't eat at the connecting restaurant but it looked amazing. Perfect for Koala sanctuary too !

Such a gorgous and impressive frontage to this motel! Our room was way at the back of the area, and it was very quiet. The room was lovely and clean, the bathroom was immaculate. A lovely overnight stay

We were located on the 4th floor & had a wonderful 6m wide view of Nelson Bay through the sliding door onto our balcony. There was plenty of free parking close to reception & it was beautifully peaceful despite being centrally located in Nelson Bay. The room was beautifully clean & the doors were wide enough for my mobility walker without any problem, even in the bathroom. Bed was very comfortable.

Very nice, spacious rooms. We were arriving late and leaving early, and the check in process for this was smooth. The motel was quickly responsive to my late check in enquiry.
