We have stayed in a variety of places in Hawks Nest & Tea Gardens but the Boathouse at Tea Gardens is still the best. There are 33 very well managed serviced apartments. We were offered a one of their best 2 bedroom apartments in the front with a great view of the river. As there was only the two of... More

This is my second time staying here in this first class, top rate resort. I tried a place in Nelson Bay of similar price and it was most disappointing. I then looked around in Nelson Bay but couldn't't get anything as good as this at the right price. Friendly staff, great view, stylish and comfortable accommodation. Travel to Nelson Bay... More

We have been there a few times over the last few years, owners are great, friendly, helpful etc. The units are a good size, nice pool, nice views of lake and pool. Great place to go and chill out for a few days. The surrounding beaches are just beautiful, the dolphins in the lake are just divine, great spots to... More

I stayed here in the week leading up to Easter 2013. We had a well appointed two bedroom apartment on the second floor which I would recommend if you prefer a little more privacy. Nice features met expectations. Wonderful pool and grounds, well maintained as observed every morning. Quiet location. Be sure to stock up on food stuff before you... More

We spent 3 days in a family appartment. There were four adults and two toddlers. The appartment was very clean and comfortable with a large balcony. We very much enjoyed our stay, we were on the second floor with a view to the pool, far enough away not to be disturbed by the noise. Our grandchildren loved the pool area... More

The resort and the apartments are extremely well set up for a short holiday. The view of the Myall River is so peaceful and the birdlife fascinating. We only stayed one night but thoroughly enjoyed it. My only complaint is the noise from the swimming pool echoes along the building and I can imagine in school holidays it would be... More

As we write this review we am in two minds about what to say... On one hand the Boathouse resort has some real positives but on the other hand there were some real negatives. We decided on an overall rating of 4 (very good) as there is no 3.5 option & the Boathouse is better than a 3 (average) rating.... More
