Expected a lot more than what we experienced We were hoping for an enjoyable weekend Staff were rude and we were simply ignored when at reception and waiting to be served in the restaurant. 3 requests to simply get towels in the room which in the end we had personally pick up from reception. I thought we were staying in... More

Basic motel room over priced and too smaller room space. Would have called front desk but phone not working. Friendly staff offered another room for not much more and 4 times the space. Carpets and beds need updating as look worn.

We had a 2 bedroom unit that was quite spacious and well equiped. The hotel had very good facilities - 2 x pools, restaurant, spa, BBQ, playground, tennis court & parking. Reception & cleaning staff were all quite friendly and helpful. Good location. Within walking distance to all attractions/amenities. My children aged 12 & 17 & my 85 year old... More

Although it is situated at the very beginning of the Esplanade, this accommodation is great and the walk is all part of enjoying the area of Lakes Entrance. Bed was a bit hard

My second stay here was as satisfactory as the first. Both times I’ve traveled for work and both times I’ve stayed in a one-bedroom apartment. The service and attention to detail I experienced here would not be out of place in any major city. The staff were professional, helpful and cared about their work, and my room was sparkling clean.... More

My wife & I stayed for two nights on our way down to Melbourne. Took a one bed apartment to use the extra space if the weather turned bad (it did) and use the kitchen for light meals (we don't eat big breakfasts). The price was a bit steep but the room was clean and well presented. The bed was... More

Always gone place this place and decided it was time to try it. Should have read the reviews first. Well appointed rooms, good sized TV and comfortable lounge. Poor bed and a very hot room which except for airconditioning you countn't cool, as there were no fly screens on the 2 doors to the balcony. The balcony was very small... More
