The layout and location is sensational. The old bloke who is some kind of manager is somthing out of a comedy episode of a bad hotel. Seriously creepy, not welcoming and spectacularly rude. Pools are wonderful, the tennis courts were great. Accomodation and everything else was OK - pity the owner doesnt do a bit more upkeep. with very little - it could be simply amazing.

Stayed in one of the studios as a family of 4. Everything was really well set up and spacious. Nice quick walk down to the beach and pools - will come again

Service outstanding = 1 star
Location Beach front = 1 star
Kept my family warm and dry for two nights = 1 star
We stayed in room 144, severe need of a renovation, crumbling walls, water damaged cabinets and doors, the location is what saves it, beach front and several pools its great for little kids and the service from front desk and even the people around the facilities was really great and welcoming. Definitely not a 5 star resort but definitely could be. It's a little bit out of Coffs buy about 8 mins so if you need to get food or anything you have to drive. Other than that it's ok.

Great villas, and right on the beach! The beach isn't protected, though there is a spa and several outdoor pools and tennis courts and a small playground and river/stream. The Thai restaurant is pretty good and well prised, although the portion size is a little small. Overall great holiday stay, although it would be useful if there were more bins around the streets.

Thoroughly enjoyed the amenities here. The apartment was well equipt with everything you needed...tennis balls, pool noodles and games. We liked the Thai restaurant on site very yummy but the only thing was that the rice was a little raw....

Absolutely loved this place! It has a villa concept, where each villa has it's own layout. We stayed in number 167, which was a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom villa, with a kitchen, living room, outdoor sitting and laundry facilities. It's just 2 minutes walk away from the beach, and there is access to 2 swimming pools, a jacuzzi, a small gym and 2 tennis courts. It's family friendly and would definitely recommend it to anyone staying over in coffs harbour.

We stayed in the sea urchin apartment. Really large sized apartment with a huge king sized bed thats really comfy. Within 50 metres of the beach and closer to the on site pool.
the apartment itself is a little dated but its comfy. The bathroom is dated but definitely functional. bathtub is a little small but the shower is hot and pressure is good.
the kitchen is ok. the utensils need to be upgraded/replaced as theyre kind of old cheap kmart items. I was disappointed that the kettle was really dirty and icecube tray was broken but these are easily fixed items.
overall, id stay here
