The town of Hawks Nest/ Tea Gardens is a beautiful part of the Port Stevens area. The motel is well located near the
Pros:

It’s location.

Cons:

I booked and paid for a deluxe room. The room I was allocated was far from a deluxe room and nothing like those given in the photo. It appeared to be that of the lesser standard.
I woke in the morning to Terrigal dead cockroaches on the floor close to the bed and shin the nest morning to another one, also deceased.
