Weekend away for a coastal hike

The resort complex and bar is very good for a weekend away. Free off-street parking is very handy. Young check in staff are friendly and helpful. My room was at a discount rate so I was happy with what I got. Bed was comfortable. Living area had basic provisions. Bathroom was a bit dated but functional

Perfect long weekend away from Sydney

Shoal Bay is a little paradise and this resort is a lovely place to stay to explore the area. We had a beach view and the studio was a very good size and very comfortable. The spa bath was a bonus too.

Very professionally managed. Generously sized room. Good little kitchen. Tastefully fitted out and decorated. Quality tv. Only issue was that someone was smoking in a nearby room and smoke seeped along corridor and into our room. Non smoking notices required in rooms.
