"The room was a bit small for the two beds we had, however having a small table and chairs outside in a small alcove was a great way to have more space available. Rooms were able to be serviced each day if we needed, and the motel was quiet, with secure access and parking facility and was in a really convenient location close to shops and the marina.

Port Stephens is one our favourite places, we've stayed at many places in the area over many years, from our recent stay, the Anchorage is by far the best. We stayed in room 102, it was lovely, modern, a beautiful bathroom and comfortable bed, but we discovered a slight problem. At breakfast, the Manager, Ali was discreetly going around greeting and making everyone feel welcome. When we mentioned our problem to Ali his response was immediate and satisfying.

We arrived a bit late and weren't quite sure how to check in as the office was unattended, however a quick phone call to Ian sorted us out.
Ian and Jane are incredbly hospitable and genuinely seem to love their jobs.
Upon walking up the stairs to our treehouse accomodation we were welcomed by a mother possum with a baby on it's back!! This quickly turned to four more possums, a lovely experience (they're so soft!).

The communication from the owners was fantastic, our room was great - had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this accommodation. Close to everything - lovely.

Loved the peace and quiet, the bird life and leafy grounds. The garden was well kept. The reception person was very helpful and welcoming. Instructions and rules of the park were easy to follow and everything was easy and organised when booking in to the villa we stayed in. We were in walking distance to restaurants and cafes and a short distance from the bowling club for food. We had a lovely couple of days and will try to return in the future. Thank you.

We were given wrong information about opening time of the airport. As we were carrying medical equipment and insulin pump which meant we could not go through the scanner we caused a huge line up at security. I asked how we could have prevented this. They told me we needed to get there much earlier. Your front office lady did not know that the airport opened at 4:30am. She told us 5:30am. We could have saved a lot of anxiety for us and frustration for airport staff if we got there earlier.

Our recent stay at Karauh Motel was delightful. We were made to feel very welcome, our family rooms were clean and comfortable.
The Motel Manager told us we're we could go for dinner that night and breakfast if we did not want it at the Motel.

This was our first time staying at a Big 4/caravan park. We stayed in the Kentia cabin with our two year old. We were very pleasantly surprised by the facilities and all the activities for children and families.
The cabin itself had plenty of room for us. Everything we needed in the kitchen for our stay. Beds were super comfy too! The shower is above a bath which wasn’t an issue. And the bath was amazing! So big. We actually had the three of us in it one night lol.
