This hotel is in a convenient location in the central coast. Parking is free outside but is $20 a day if you want under cover parking. The hotel is clean and staff are friendly. It is not a 24 hour reception place. The gym and pool are attached to the recreation club next door. Its a hidden gem hotel for this area.

We had a lovely two-night stay at Encore Mingara. The room was clean, comfortable and modern, making for a very relaxing stay. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. The club amenities were fantastic, with a great range of food options and live music on both Friday and Saturday night, which created a wonderful atmosphere.
