Like me youve proberbly gone past the signs and thought that yhis place looks like a stunning five star getaway resort. If thats what you thought forget it, its just clever marketing and photoshopping. Now that that disappointment is over, lets judge the hotel from a fresh perspective. Pros: Staff helpful well trained. Plenty of towels. Renovated bayhroom. High ceilings... More

My husband, 2 young boys and I stayed over night on our way to QLD and have to say we were very happy with the service and friendly atmosphere of Opal Cove resort. The kids loved the pool and games room and the food was great. We highly recommend staying here and look forward to staying longer next time. More

Lovely place to stay. Have been here many times before with my husband but this time with my daughter and two grandchildren. The service is very good, we are always looked after extremely well. The rooms are lovely and the beds very, very comfy. We have stayed in the rooms which overlook the carpark, but it really is worth upgrading... More

Our family stayed at Opal Cove last week originally as a stop over from our driving trip from Qld to Sydney. We enjoyed it so much we ended up staying an extra night!~ We weren't in the ocean view room but had a room towards the car park. We had booked it as a budget room as we were planning... More

A warm and friendly welcome greeted us at this resort. The room was bland but clean and the bed was very comfortable. A good breakfast and cherry “Good morning greeted us each morning. The rooms are a little dated and tariff factors this in. This is not a luxurious resort but rather an excellent resort for families. More

We stayed recently, thankfully only two nights. Initially booked an ocean front room for two adults & one child, however after checking the 'images' online (first mistake) I thought the villas looked good, so we 'upgraded'! I was prepared to forfeit ocean views for more space, but upgrade it wasn't. The villa was 'very ordinary' & 'pokey' with views to... More

Stayed here for 3 nights and was very dissapointed when we opened the door to find out room was dated. It was spacious and the beds were comfortable, however the outside area was old and dirty. When we checked in we were told our credit card was declined which I thought was strange, after repeating this many times to me... More

Spent a night on the way to Sydney and on our return trip home and enjoyed the accommodation very much. For a family it was easy to book in and once in our room we were able to relax with an ocean view and had an area for the kids to run around in after a long day in the... More

Where to start. We check out Monday. But I think we will be forfeiting our last night. Been here for 6 nights so far and can't do another one. Im sitting in the room now wishing I had read these reviews before I booked. Our understanding of our booking was golf course frontage. Apparently not so. When we asked about... More
