My family 2 kids, 2 adults stay for one night here. Our room with balcony overlooked the beach in which was nice and inviting. Beds were comfortable, room was clean , with toilet, small fridge and a/c. There was an arcade area with pool table and outdoor swimming pool for kids to enjoy and pass time. Highly recommend this place to stay if you are stopping into Coffs Harbour. Thankyou!!
