We went to a wedding this weekend and left it until the last minute to find somewhere to stay. They were fully booked and ended up calling us about a cancellation. It was $115 for the night and got us out of a bind. It's not flash for sure and suffers from the 70s pastel disease. It was clean enough... more

We stayed at the Thirroul beach motel for 2 nights. On both of the occasions we went to the reception there was no one there which made it difficult to check in.We opened up the room which was clean looking and quite spacious. The bed sheets however did smell particularly clean and the mattress was obviouldy very old with springs... more

The Thirroul Beach Motel is a disgrace and one wonders how any health department allows it to continue to operate. Seven years ago I had the misfortune to spend a few days there during a holiday period when accommodation in the area was at a premium. During that time I was moved three times, each room being worse than the... more

Having read a number of negative reviews about the Thirroul Beach Motel after we had made a booking for 2 nights we were more than a little apprehensive about what we might encounter. Well what a pleasant surprise, clean room, plenty of hot water and a super shower which really belted the water out, plenty of fresh milk, and an... more

We stayed at the Thirroul Beach Motel last weekend. I was really worried because I had booked and paid before I read the crook reviews. But...... It was clean and smelt good. No rubbish in the bins, no bad milk or anything in the fridge. Air conditioner worked. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bed was dry and comfortable. TV worked.... more

This would have to be, without doubt, the absolute worst Motel ever encountered in my life. For example:- No hot water (I notice that someone else has reviewed it as having no hot water at least 2 week's previously). No power on the first day. Management impossible to find. Air conditioning was absent. The only air conditioning was open doors... more

We drove past the Thirroul Beach Motel on the 30th of December and spent a fantastic night in the one room still available. Drove southwards as planned the following day and spent a miserable evening in a much more posh hotel in Merimbula eating a $30 pizza and watching The Biggest Loser Finale. We knew what we had to do... more

We stayed for one night. That was one night too long. Located on busy road. Room was very poor standard. All walls painted bright pink and even the drain in bathroom was painted pink. Quilt cover was torn and very damp. Bathroom was poor with no basin. Shower head spayed water all over bathroom and toilet. Reception was always closed.... more

We are locals who stayed here at short notice when the fumes from the newly polished floors became too much one evening so we said we would have a night away. We stayed here and it was absolutely terrible. All of the above comments are accurate and with hindsight we would have been better off to stay home with the... more
