The Accommodation is very nice, however the noise from footsteps coming from the person staying above as well as her loud telephone conversations were off-putting.

Nice quiet stay at Geckos. Little bit of a drive into town. Close to some lovely tourist areas like Arakoon lighthouse, Scotts Head, Nambucca but we enjoyed South West Rocks area as well. Lovely beaches. Enjoyed dinner and lunch at the Riverside Tavern.
We had a very enjoyable time. Lovely decor, very clean and everything you need. Situated in a residential area but close to the river for fishing, boating and walking, also near to the River Tavern. We had a lovely meal there.
Idyllic restful weeks’ stay
Well appointed with all mod cons
Short car-drive to beach/river and all leisure facilities
Hands up for return at same time in
2021
We stayed for a few weeks and was very comfortable, The main bedroom is a good size, the only negative was no wifi and hardly any phone service. Overall was a great stay.
