Fresh and lovely room and all the facilities were clean and well maintained. LOved the heated pool and the poolside chairs and furniture were very clean and well maintained

I would have preferred a King size bed, I was aware it would not be a king but that did impact us as we have a king bed at home and we felt cramped in the bed- smaller bedside tables and a King bed would be my preference. The Pool towels were too small and I would have liked more than one each as after a swim in morning the towel was still wet in afternoon and while extra towels were available - i thought the extra cost was warranted as the room was not cheap. Its the little things like the towels that make a difference, and I was surprised that the glasses were not refreshed each day.

I loved the colour coordination in the entire complex. The shades of blue and white had a calming and beach effect. I also liked that the kitchenette had practically everything to prepare breakfast or lunch. However, we only showered and slept there.

The guest information book had a section under the heading Our Housekeeping, which clearly stated that between 10 am and midday, the bed will be made up and towels and amenities will be changed DAILY. We put our used towels in the bath and expected clean towels and the room to be serviced, but NO. It did not happen. Fortunately, I brought towels from home too. I made the bed up.

-Location was central enough to walk to beach and town, if you wanted to -staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble -pool was a good size for family or short lap swimming and great setting to unwinf -room with kitchenette was a decent size and well laid out. -BBQ area and facility

-Having shower over the bath so you have to step into bath to have shower gets more difficult as you get older. -the little freezer top of fridge hadn't been defrosted so didn't freeze ice overnight -having a kitchenette and cooking utensils, it would have been great for there to be a little bit if cooking oil available, either with the tea and coffee or available at reception to purchase

What a gem of a place. The people there were lovely and were so friendly and professional from first contact to when we checked out. The accommodation itself was very clean, and was well equipped with everything. The heated swimming pool is a definite winner in cold weather, and the outdoor furniture is well set up for a relaxed holiday. The location is excellent, with a children's playground just across the road, and a pleasant 8 min walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and all the action. Terrigal Pacific Coastal Retreat ticks all the boxes!

The apartment was very spacious and had everything one would need. The pool was really lovely and thankfully heated so we could actually use it Location was right opposite a park which was great for littlies and great coffee in the little cafe there. Ray on reception was fantastic, her customer service is brilliant. The owner is also very nice and courteous. Approx 15 minute walk into town where there are heaps of restaurants. You can also drive but 2 hour limit in car park so walk if you can.

Sadly, where our apartment was you could hear a lot of traffic noise from the main road so was difficult to get to sleep. If I were to stay there again I would ask for an apartment at the back. The outside lights are also quite bright and as the curtains don’t quite meet, again my suggestion would be to have the outside lights dimmer at a certain time, say 8pm The only other thing I would note is again, the apartment we were in was close to the bar-b-q area and you are allowed to use that area until 9pm which again, if you have small children is a nightmare trying to get them to sleep when other guests are having late barbys. The soundproofing isn’t the best. My suggestion to the owners would be to close that area at the same time as the pool - 8pm.

The pool was awesome - heated to 27C so the kids could have a swim in the middle of winter! Fantastic location. Great little cafe across the road with a delicious kid friendly menu and playground surrounded by nature. I loved the layout of the hotel with the pool and communal areas being central - it very conducive to group stays. I would love to return with the whole family or sporting team! Thanks for your hospitality.

This was our second visit. Great, convenient location, walking distance to city centre. Enough kitchen to do light breakfast, snacks etc. The pool area is great plus plenty of sunbeds, umbrella's, shaded spots and a BBQ area. There were several young male schoolies staying. No issue.

The bathroom is a little tight and condences up. As a female, there were no other mirrors to dry your hair and put on make-up. Despite this I would keep coming back.

It ticked all the boxes you expect from a hotel room and then exceeded them with a cheerful room, great outlook over the pool and the most comfortable motel bed I've slept in in a long while. Really friendly and helpful hosts as well. The tip for a counter meal at the nearby Terrigal Hotel was spot on.

Streaming services for the TV would have been icing on the cake.

We loved the heated pool, the closeness of the room to pool. Room was so clean and lovely colourings. Staff were really helpful and friendly. . Room was compact but beautifully organised. Loved how all doors folded together at front of u it we could relax inside and out. Parking good.

Maybe somewhere to hang swimmers and wet towels. Shower floor became quite wet with showers.

Everything!! Extremely clean, beds were very comfortable, perfect location for the kids with access to the pool straight from our back door (with some grassed space in between for them to play), playground with food across the road and a short walk into Terrigal. Staff were wonderful and the pool was heated, more than usual. Had us swimming right up until 5pm in the last week of April!

Nothing!! Couldn’t fault it at all.
