Staff were fantastic- every staff member we spoke to was so lovely and helpful - hotel itself was a little bit out of the way in Coffs, so had to drive everywhere which was mae harder by extensive road works (obviously not hotel’s fault - it just lengthened the travel), beach straight out the back but no life guards - lovely hotel just a little aged now - would stay again
