Top Summer Island Hotel Reviews

Seabreeze Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location in centre of town with ocean glimpses from the balcony. Very quiet with no noise from the pub or the street with the balcony door closed. Only quirk with our particular room was the bathroom door would slowly roll open."

City Centre Motel

8/10 Good

"My biggest complaint is to Hotels.com and not the Kempsey City Center. I made the reservation and paid about six weeks in advance using the Hotels.com app. But the app never showed the reservation. Luckily I had copied the itinerary # so had that. On the day of checkin I tried to find it, couldn’t and no one else on Hotels.com could either. Fortunately when we arrived the hotel did indeed have our paid ressie so Hotels.com wasted much of my time plus worry and frustration over a ressie that YOU couldn’t find. The hotel was a tad noisy. They only had instant coffee. They have Netflix but the previous guest didn’t sign out and it took an hour to resolve. They say they had continental breakfast but it wasn’t clear that you had to order it the night before to be delivered to your room."

Crescent Head Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"My husband and I love Crescent Head and the location of the caravan park and have stayed there many times.I booked a Lakeside cabin with queen bed and double bed for two nights but our cabin had adouble bed and triple bunks. We accepted the booking because it was only two nights and we were meeting up with friends but because we are older and I have mobility issues we did not sleep well and the shower had no pressure and barely warm. Time for an upgrade."
