Top Zenith Beach Hotel Reviews

Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The view of the bay and headlands from room was beautiful. Great facilities with indoor and outdoor pool. Really good restaurant options, highly recommend Atmos restaurant. Room getting a bit tired looking but cannot beat location for a great beachside stay"

Castaways 8/17 Shoal Bay Road - The crystal clear waters of Shoal Bay

6/10 Okay

"Location excellent….bedrooms would benefit from ceiling fans as the bedrooms were very hot.There were pedestal fans in the bedrooms that worked poorly. Three of the dining room chairs had pieces missing from the the back of the chairs making them unusable and dangerous. This was reported in November 2025 on Bookings.com but nothing was done about it ????? One toilet for 8 people is not really adequate there is room in the laundry for another one this has also been reported previously. The Shower is terrible It’s ancient and needs updating.I feel the owners have neglected this property.The renovations in the kitchen/dining are is done very well ….. the lounge area is very nice and relaxing.Thank You for asking for our review, Kind Regards "

Reviewer Comments: Came here with the family and had a great time - lots of space, aircon was amazing for a super hot week, and great location by the beach."

8/10 Good

"The apartment was comfortable and clean enough (the balcony, garage, and backyard were not clean), and it had everything we needed to enjoy. The location was perfect, very close to the beach and bush walk but away enough to have privacy and quietness. "
