My family (2 adults with three children aged 5, 3 and 18 months) have just returned from 5 nights at The Oaks Boathouse, Tea Gardens. I was little unsure of what to expect after having read the reviews on Trip Advisor, however I couldn't have been happier. Our room (105) was on the ground floor with a private balcony and... more

I am a big fan of the Oaks chain as I believe they retail aspirational accommodation at affordable prices. However, Oaks Boathouse in Tea Gardens was a disappointment - particularly as we'd just stayed in the brand new and absolutely fantastic Oaks Pacific Blue at nearby Salamander Bay. While the service at Oaks Boathouse was top notch and the staff... more

Location was excellent - very quiet and beautiful little town. We stayed for one night in a one-bedder apartment. Service was nice. Place was generally clean but definitely aging, carpet was dirty and fittings old. For the $120 we paid for it's OK but not quite up to the $300 normal rack rate. I would recommend staying at the newer... more

We wanted to have a quiet and relaxing time away from work and the city life for few days and this was the perfect place for it. The apartment is new (2 years old) and very spacious (we booked 1 bedroom apt) with two bathrooms, spa bath, laundry (washer and dryer), modern & well-equipped kitchen, comfortable bed, and great view... more

We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 young children. The apartment had everything that a family needs and was very clean. The pool was fantastic for the kids. We made use of BBQ which was great. Walking distance to most things including ferry to Nelson's Bay, shops and restaurants. more

This was our first time at The Boathouse and we found it a great place to stay for so many reasons. You are greeted by very friendly staff who do their best to appoint the nicest available room for you. Nothing was too much trouble and anything that was broken or missing was fixed or replaced almost immediately. Our 3rd... more

We stayed in a 3-bedroom apartment as a group of 5 friends at the Boathouse, which was great value as each of us had to pay only $48 per night. The apartment was modern with brand new appliances. The master bedroom was great, had its own ensuite and walk-in robe. But our single friends had to squeeze in a bit,... more

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at the Oaks Boathouse Tea Gardens. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment on the third floor. The property is lovely. The apartments are spacious very modern and new. The kitchen has a dishwasher microwave and all crockery cutlery glassware and saucepans provided. Complimentary dishwasher and washing up liquid provided to... more

We stayed at Oaks Boathouse overnight on the way to Canberra from the Gold Coast. We booked literally at the last minute and only chose Oaks because it was basically the only accommodation in that region we could find that we could stay just for a single night and wasn't going to cost a fortune (we booked on wotif.com).
