"Great location with undercover parking. Room was clean and a great size."

"This hotel has been renovated with the creative decor being calming with many surfing photos. The meals we had in the restaurant (with its top view) were really good, while the staff there were outstanding. So too the reception staff. Loved the pool, spa and gym with their fabulous outlooks over the river."

"Nice apart with lovely bathroom products so no need to bring your own. Unit was large and had a lovely view. Would come back again for sure."

"Overall a good hotel with helpful staff. The only negative was the safe only room which didn’t really fulfill definition of a safe as it wasn’t fixed to anything and was light enough to just carry out of the room."

"Clean and spacious apartment with a well equipped kitchen. Lovely location with an ocean view. "

"The villa was amazing and in a beautiful and peaceful setting. The only negative was the bed was not firm enough for our tastes but might be fine for others. "

"A perfect coastal escape with stunning ocean views and a relaxed holiday vibe. I recently stayed at Mantra The Observatory in Port Macquarie and was genuinely impressed. The location is unbeatable—right across from Town Beach and just a short stroll into the town centre, making it incredibly convenient for both relaxing and exploring. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with a private balcony offering beautiful ocean views. Waking up to the sound of the waves was definitely a highlight. The rooms felt comfortable and modern, with everything you need The facilities were also a standout—there’s a heated indoor pool, spa, and sauna, perfect for unwinding after a day out. The secure parking and free Wi-Fi added to the overall convenience. What really makes this place special is the combination of location and atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing beach getaway or a base to explore Port Macquarie, it ticks all the boxes. Overall: A fantastic stay with beautiful views, great amenities, and an ideal location. I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone visiting the area."
