Top Scotland Island Hotel Reviews

Mantra Ettalong Beach

8/10 Good

"The location next to the beach and food outlets"

200m from Pearl Beach, totally private, yet close to everything

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for kids, a quick walk to Pearl Beach. The host left out a beach cricket set and boogie boards for everyone, a big hit! We had a lovely stay and will definitely be back."

Retro Beach House on Pearl Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Another perfect mini holiday at the Retro Beach House Pearl Beach. Thank you "

'Seabreeze' a unique Waterfront/Beachside property

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely superb and super comfortable terrific place to stay"

Pearl Bliss, a sundrenched, secluded oasis 200m from spectacular Pearl Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Really well equipped which made self catering very easy. Very spacious accommodation. Ability to separate bedrooms was very good. Very short walk to a lovely beach (Pearl Beach)."

Pearl Beach Semi - 2 min to sand & sea – Lilly

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved this place. Everything was great, really, but highlights definitely are proximity to beach, peaceful - no noise neighbourhood, backyard area - gorgeous, lush and shady, and the retro furniture, took me back to my youth in the 70’s, very special, lovingly cared for pieces of furniture. Best part was that the whole place was super clean. I’d love to return."

Beachfront, 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, EV charger

10/10 Excellent

"The view was amazing you hear the ocean."

Salt and Stone Modern Pearl Beach Stay 2 Mins to Ocean

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at the property, but realised we didn't pay enough attention (it was mentioned in the listing) to the fact that the backyard is not enclosed at all on the side closest to the road (i.e. completely open to the road). So we could not let our dog out into the backyard unsupervised in case he escaped. Otherwise the kitchen was well equipped and there was heating in the living area, which was a bonus."

Pearlie @ Pearl Beach, NSW. Retro Beach House. 5 minute walk to beach.

8/10 Good

"Everything was ok, good size for a couple or two adults and kids. Not really enough room for 8 people as the lounge room is small with only a two seater and one chair. Plenty of room outside so great for summer. Only negative was the size of the ensuite, hardly any room to move and definitely needs exhaust fans with heat globes in the winter as the steam from the shower made it hard to breath once you got out. Not really pet friendly as pets have to stay outside. Other than that it’s a nice property and great location.Enjoyed our stay."
