We really appreciated the free upgrade to the spa suite with a gorgeous view of the harbour. It was within walking distance of the jetty and its activities as well as the coastal trail. The place was clean and quiet. Some of the fixtures were a bit worn but we understand that an upgrade is coming in 2025. We would definitely stay here again.

Location, Tesla charger and frendly

The lovely staff made our family feel very welcome. The size of the apartment was great. Easy to walk to the jetty, train and very close to the local strip of restaurants. Could see the sea from the balcony and they had 2 tesla chargers free for guests .

Great location, plenty of hospitality only walking distance away and only a couple minute's to jetty beach and breakwall. The minimum of disturbance is the country link which rolls in every couple hours. But never really noticed it to much.

Staff manager is very nice and big smile to greet you. The property is very good, the only negative is no elevator, can be a bit of a haul if you have much luggage.

I loved how simplistic this place was. If we had more time, we would have spent a longer time here. Excellent front desk staff, parking was super easy, and the condo itself was clean. Super easy to walk over to the grocery store, bakery, or pub. Enjoyed!

The property was excellent and the staff were always helpful and always approachable, the units were close to everything, we could see and hear the beach, it was close to the shops, close to public transport. We had our own on-site parking spot and everything inside the apartment to help us cook ourselves and more. We were VERY happy with this apartment and all the inclusions.

I stayed in the 2 bedroom ocean view apartment with Spa. One simple yet nice feature in the reception area and in my dinning room was a Clock -Sea yacht style theme very stylish and practical. I liked the fish tiles in bath room, arty & gives a nice effect/touch of a holiday feel. View of train station although not that noisy is a bit of a shame in some of the view which is a beautiful view of the jetty beach/ocean surrounds and open ocean portal. No real walking easy access to beach but the beach is a short stroll maybe 10 mins however could be a nice walk past the pub, cafes and restaurants on one of the ways or options to the beach. Spacious room (2 bedroom ocean view apartment) kitchen is user friendly, a bit small and cramped but serves it purpose and leaves the rest of the apartment feeling spacious and open. Unusual oriental style blinds in the lounge room is a nice touch, nice sized balcony for 2 not much privacy on the baloney but they are good. Nice holiday feel to the place, nice use of tiles on walls and floors mixed with carpet. nice colours through out and a good use of mixed colours between each room. My apartment has a spa bath i didn't use it but nice to know its there! comfy couch. Maybe a washing machine and dryer in the apartments would make the place nearly perfect but they are on site and coin operated which is very handy! I requested a early check in days in advanced. which i did get and i think is great if the room is free and or ready to check in.

Clean, neat and quiet. We stopped on our way through from Brisbane to Sydney and were very happy with our accommodation. A lovely area in Coffs to walk around and see the Marina. Restaurants and shops very close by.
