Mantra Ettalong Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff, clean rooms,"

Kookaburra Cottage 5 mins to beaches, national park, cafe's on the Central Coast

8/10 Good

"Clean and fresh with very comfy beds. The kitchen had everything we needed for a short stay, and a lovely fresh fruit bowl, a loaf of bread and some yummy gluten free biscuits. Butter and milk in the fridge.The only issue I had was I was cold! Yes, there is a reverse-cycle airconditioner in the living area, but no other heating, not even in the freezing cold bathroom.The bed was nice and warm though.It was peaceful and quiet and has a nice outlook and yes, Kookaburras calling in the morning.I'd probably stay again but not in Winter!"

Mary MacKillop Centre Central Coast

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spotless, the receptionist was lovely and very informative. The grounds themselves were absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. Easy to get to and parking close to the rooms. Breakfast was lovely and so was the lady in the kitchen Would definitely recommend if you want no frills accommodation and total relaxation and peacefulness"

Resort Style Getaway | Close to Beaches and Cafes

10/10 Excellent

"What a fantastic stay! The views of the sea and sunsets were absolutely gorgeous. The house was clean and had everything we needed — a fully equipped kitchen, heated pool, BBQ, and plenty of fun with table tennis and badminton. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun getaway. The kids loved it! "

Gone Coastal by HolidayCo.

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful stay. The home is spacious, beautifully presented and offers lovely views. The location is close to the beach and national park although the wet weather didn’t allow us to explore as much as we’d hoped. The only minor negatives were downstairs — the TV wasn’t working and better ventilation would have helped. The ping pong table was great and kept the younger ones entertained. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily book again. Thank you."

Ocean Ridge at Killcare by HolidayCo.

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for 2 nights, being 2 couples plus 2 dogs. And we all loved it! Easy walk down to Killcare beach (dog friendly for a large section of it) although a bit harder coming back. Easy drive to lots of lovely places too. The Inclinator came in very handy, as the stairs are steep and plentiful, but a great workout!The house is very clean, comfortable and has everything you need. Modern bathroom, kitchen and nice linens too. We loved having meals on the deck, overlooking the ocean, and the living room and bedrooms all have spectacular views, too.We hope to come back again soon, an excellent holiday house for people and dogs alike!"

Stay 3 for 2 this Winter* Pool/spa/sauna

10/10 Excellent

"Had the best time staying at this amazing Booker Bay home! Even with the weather doing its own thing, the fishing off the jetty was unreal and those views were picturesque — absolutely glorious. So many great memories made here and we’ll 100% be trying to book another stay. Can’t wait to come back!"
