Good location

Place was very unclean. I spent the first few hours after arrival cleaning. Floors unswept, sinks needed a good scrub, hair and marks all over walls in bathroom, layer of dust on top of shelves, fridge, light switches etc. Other then that the location is always great for fishing and swimming. although I think the area has gone downhill since last I visited alot of rubbish, broken glass, drunks, and dog droppings in the neighbourhood.

Spotless, modern, amazing location, perfect stay

This beautiful apartment is right over the road from the river - and for us as boating enthusiasts - we couldn't have asked fr a better place - leaving our boat right opposite. so many waterways to discover. The unit was beautiful - shiny new kitchen with everything available. The outside terrace is amazing - overlooking the river and swimming pool, with enough privacy with the tropical palms in the terrace. We loved this little village - quiet and welcoming and will return annually

To whom this may concern. My frinds and i really enjoyed our stay at this modern,convenient location and excellent added extras like the extremely well maintained pool and very functional laundry. The only negative or improved communication with cleaner was certain necessary checks between bookings such as gas for the BBQ (BBQ is rusty doesn't heat for cooking temperature),making sure the sheets had been changed in the bunk beds. Making sure the oven and griller trays are clean from grease.and crumbs after previous stays.The TV remote on button is un usable.Well 2 out of 3 beds where very comfortable,Friend 3 was uncomfortable from the sheets BO smell in 3rd bedroom.We enjoyed our stay and hope to rebook next year and enjoy the peace,vibe and attention to the 1%ters to make staying at 91 Manning Point rd Manning Point a permanent yearly stay.7.5 out of 10

Perfect location for the whole family

Location was excellent easy walking distance to fishing and beach. the pool was also great and clean. Pool could do with some shade though even just an umbrella for parents to sit under. Outdoor area was a beautiful garden but ruined by the old broken down furniture. And the amount of furniture it felt cluttered. Unit was also good with the amount of beds and rooms. Could do with a spring clean though and more detail to cleaning. Food and dirt under lounges. Filth under and in lounge cushions. Cockroaches in bedrooms. Also rats in the parking area which chewed our wiring and resulted in our car being at the mechanics for a day. Overall was a lovely holiday that made everyone happy as the kids loved the pool being right at the unit, hubby caught some fish and I had a break from work. Thank you.

Great spot

Good place in a great location. Only real issue is parking with only 6 parking spots & nowhere for a boat. You can park across the road which gets pretty busy around Christmas/New Year. Happily stay there again as it is in a great spot.

Clean and comfortable in a beautiful spot

Lovely place, with everything we needed except a decent single bed. Advertised as suiting up to 6 adults, it’s really more for four adults and two children due to the low singles with thin foam mattresses on a base. Our group was all older family and my Aunty in her seventies struggled with this bed. All modern amenities, we were very comfortable with our hot water bottles but if you go in winter perhaps throw in an extra blanket as only light doonas were supplied. Close to great meals at the bowling club

Mid North Coast Haven

We've holidaying at Manning Point on and off for many years which proves how good the area is. Blue Water is in the perfect location and is nicely appointed. Perhaps some work on ventilation would take it from 'good' to 'excellent' accommodation.

Amazing location and property

When we arrived the property was super clean and very well set out. Kitchen appliances were all working and beds were very comfortable. The location is perfect as it is only a few minutes walk from the beach and there is a general store only two houses down open everyday. Overall a pleasant stay and I would recommend it to my friends.

Great location, excellent value for money

Location is absolutely fantastic with river, ocean and great fishing at your doorstep (I can't remember catching so much fish). Place is so peaceful and tranquil but with Old Bar and Taree short drive away you wont have to skimp on good coffee and meal (Thai place in Old Bar is definitely worth a visit). Accommodation itself has everything you need for comfortable stay and is fantastic value for money.
