We loved it and will be back! Just a lovely comfortable and welcoming place to stay.
Pros:

Location, cleanliness, helpful and friendly staff, modern, well equipped apartment, nice furniture and furnishings. I would happily live here long term if it was allowed! I felt very much at home and my kids were sad we were only there one night.
Next time we will stay longer. Perfect family getaway location and this is a wonderful place to stay.
We will be back!

Cons:

The only thing was the parking was a bit tight and a bit awkward. But that absolutely isn’t a deterrent at all.

Would love to come again
Pros:

Brilliant location with super views.

Cons:

Very little. Maybe the two flights of stairs climb to our room but it was worth the effort for the view.

Pros:

Fantastic location, very well-sized modern apartment, big comfy bed, great balcony with a view of the estuary. To the left is the v wall Pavilion Restaurant, it was perfect for dinner and afternoon drinks, there's also a cafe that severs fish n chips during the day as well.

There is also free use of their kayaks and snorkeling gear which was awesome, we spent a couple of hours going between the small islands and cruising through the calm waters, seeing nambucca this was a highlight, highly reccomend.

Can't wait to come back for our next yearly trip!

Cons:

Everything was perfect 😊
