"This was a perfect little family friendly site for our family. We stopped as a half way point on our way from NSW to QLD and it had everything we needed. The shops within walking distance, great park facilities and the beach literally on the doorstep. We had an added bonus of a Kangaroo and her joey waiting to say Hello when we arrived. We'd definitely recommend, the only problem was we didn't stay longer."

We had avoided this motel because the name has Hotel but what a surprise.
Without question this was the best Motel room that we have ever stayed in.
Decor, fixtures and the beds are equal to and better than some of the five star resorts that we have holidayed at. The Manageress was so obliging actually took us to our room and opened the door, a bit different to 'heres the key your room is down there'. She also checked later to make sure that we were comfortable and

A great quiet spot. Had to borrow a porta cot on the day as we forgot ours. Nothing was a problem. Our cabin was nice and close to the beach. Kids loved the play parks. The bed was super comfy! Think we will be back!

This accomodation was very convenient for travellers being on the main highway and walking distance to shops and restaurants.
I was surprised that it actually wasn’t very noisy given the proximity to the highway.
I appreciated that I was able to check in after 5 and the 11am checkout was nice too. I took advantage of the breakfast room service which I enjoyed.
The bed was comfortable, aircon and blockout curtains were good. The motel had all the usual amenities that you’d expect such as a...

Super friendly staff - very welcoming. This was our first glamping experience and we loved it!
Clean and very well maintained holiday park. Stunning views and beaches. We would def stay again if we were passing through the area again.

Port Stephens is one our favourite places, we've stayed at many places in the area over many years, from our recent stay, the Anchorage is by far the best. We stayed in room 102, it was lovely, modern, a beautiful bathroom and comfortable bed, but we discovered a slight problem. At breakfast, the Manager, Ali was discreetly going around greeting and making everyone feel welcome. When we mentioned our problem to Ali his response was immediate and satisfying. It is obvious from his leadership and...

We enjoyed our stay very much. We then went onto a hotel up in the Gold Coast but had wished we stayed on at Emerald Beach. It has a pizza restaurant, coffee shop, a mexican restaurant and a bottle 'o within a minutes walk.
The kids loved the water park, beach and the jumping pillow. We will return for a holiday here again.

The room was so comfortable and clean. There was seating out on the balcony as well as a lounge and a chair inside, so you didn't have to resort to sitting on the bed!
the bathroom was clean and spacious with a wonderful big bath.
Inclusions included hair dryer, iron & board and bath robes - I only used the hair dryer but I was so impressed with the others.
from our balcony i could walk past the pool and out onto the Heritage River Walk, full of history on well placed boards, a very pleasant...
