Top Pelican Island Nature Reserve Hotel Reviews

Mantra Ettalong Beach

8/10 Good

"The location next to the beach and food outlets"

Mary MacKillop Centre Central Coast

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful centre to stay in. The staff were extremely helpful. There are great outdoor and indoor spaces to hang out in. The room was in great condition. Remember to check your email for a message on how to get in to the reception and don't forget your electricity key. A highly recommended spot to stay."

Private cottage, dog friendly, close to beach, shops, bush walks, fishing, more

10/10 Excellent

"This property is the perfect place for a couples getaway when you want to bring your pup. We took our two small terriers with us, who can be anxious but they were relaxed and happy here.We loved the private courtyard, comfortable bed, clean modern shower/ laundry and short stroll on a level footpath to the shops, restaurants and beach/ esplanade. Our host was available for messaging and we had everything needed for our stay. Loved our time here and taking the pups on the ferry to Palm Beach. Hope to return soon!"

Ettalong Beach Tourist Resort

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our stay at Ettalong Beach Tourist Resort. The resort is beautiful, with a lovely design and atmosphere. Our room was very comfortable and a good size for three people. We especially loved the balcony, which made the room feel very pleasant, and the air conditioning worked very well. One disappointment was the lack of a general lift. The only lift seemed to be for guests with accessibility needs. I completely understand the need for an accessible lift, but having at least one lift for general guests would be helpful, especially for people arriving with luggage. The pool was also extremely cold and basically unusable. We had been warned it was cold, but it was much colder than expected, and several children were visibly shivering. The spa was not working either and was also very cold. Interestingly, the ocean was much warmer that same day. We loved the Galleria downstairs. There is a great variety of restaurants, cafés and interesting shops, and we spent most of a rainy day there without getting bored. However, many shops closed around 2–3 pm. We were also very surprised that on Monday morning absolutely everything in the Galleria was closed, including restaurants, cafés, the bakery, ice cream shop and shops. Reception told us most venues close during weekdays and mainly open on weekends. This wasn’t clear on the website and would be important information for guests, especially families visiting during school holidays. We also really enjoyed the cinema,"

Cosy Coastal Retreat with Water Views

8/10 Good

"Spotless property in a quiet street with lovely views. Even the bathroom has the view. Super comfortable beds. Some maintenance needed which I'm sure the owner will attend to as he is very responsive."

The Boathouse

10/10 Excellent

"Such a beautiful sanctuary for a relaxing weekend away. Scenic views, a warm fire pit, private jetty access and plenty of activities to slowly pass the time (kayak, fishing, board games, cooking facilities). My partner said it was one of the best weekends she has had "

Resort Style Getaway | Close to Beaches and Cafes

10/10 Excellent

"What a fantastic stay! The views of the sea and sunsets were absolutely gorgeous. The house was clean and had everything we needed — a fully equipped kitchen, heated pool, BBQ, and plenty of fun with table tennis and badminton. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun getaway. The kids loved it! "
