this motel is a disgrace to the central coast.My sons wedding was held at Diggers and the reef was within walking distance. Trust me that is the only good point i can make. Rooms are filthy, beds stink, linen still had sand on it, and the management are the most arrogant, rude, obnoxious people to top it off.You have to... More

We left this booking until the last minute yet did not expect it to be this bad. Had emailed with the man several times to confirm that there was a room available, and when I rang up to confirm he booked me in and told me I had to pay upfront and took my credit card details. Upon arrival, I... More

Don't stay here! We went for 4 nights on a family holiday and spent as little time as possible there. The sheets were old and hard and the shower screen fell off onto my 18 month old sons foot. Toilet always smelt of sewerage. It appears that it is not maintained at all as everything seemed to be deteriorating, old... More

We only wanted a room to sleep in for the night during peak season so was quite prepared for an average standard of accomodation. But this is below par for Australia. We have lived in Thailand so are used to outdated, average rooms but at least the rooms are cheap. These are not - small, crowded family room and International... More

The bed sheets had not been changed and there were dirty used towels. The bathroom sink leaked and smelt like foul sewerage. The tv was outdated and useless. The bed... More

We needed a coastal getaway. Booked The Entrance Reef Resort on lastminute.com. Did not anticipate anything special given the price for a family but expected clean sheets and hot shower as a minimum. Once we saw our room we decided to spend as little time there as possible - the musty smell, lack of cleanliness and unfinished renovations were quite... More
