Comfortable and quiet stay in Shoal Bay

We had 3 nights here as as base for the Tomaree Cpastal Walk. Very comfortable, quiet and spacious. It's looking a bit old but it was clean and had a small kitchenette with sufficient equipment for our stay. A few minutes drive to Shoal Bay itself. Had some cheeky feathered visitors in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

We have never stayed at this motel before. We were pleasantly surprised. We were surprised by the motel as it was very clean, the room was spacious and the area was very quiet. Check in was efficient and quick. Close to all amenities and only a few minutes drive from the centre of Nelson Bay. We will certainly stay at this motel on our next visit to Nelson Bay. It was an excellent stay.

John's stay

There are birds that flew on to the balcony, and we fed with lorikeet bars. Very natural

The air conditioner didn't work and they put us in room 13 , and the doors rattled .
Paul., 1-night trip

6/10 Good

THE ROOM IS ENOUGH SIZE FOR MY FAMILY THE ONLY PROBLEM THAT WE CAN SEE IS THE POWER POINT BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE IN THE WHOLE ROOM
ANGELA, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Room for improvements.

The front desk staff has poor customer service skill (not welcoming). My children found ants under their pillows. I saw and killed a cockroach. The cleaning staff took the cushions and placed them on floor. Beds where poorly tidied during our stay there with the exception of the first day.
