Such a special place, the lake view from your private deck is just beautiful, very comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen and super comfortable couch. This was my first stay but it won’t be my last. Look no further this is the place to stay, so close to everything Mallacoota has to offer. Our hosts are super hosts, very welcoming , friendly and helpful.

The views overlooking the Mallacoota Inlet from the dining/lounge room upstairs were terrific. The downstairs bedroom was spacious as was the bathroom, which had the best shower I have had for a long time. The small shopping centre was about a two minute walk away however, there is a good pub and an excellent chinese restaurant. Also two supermarkets are located within the main street.

Amenities are perfect. However, We disappointed that the musty smell in the bedrooms was so bad. I was literally have to cover my nose to fall to sleep. The cupboards in the bedrooms are also smelly.
Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2021
Response from Geoff and Rachael on 4 Jan 2022
Dear Rubie-Han Thank you for staying with us and for your review. We are glad you found the amenities pleasing. We would have valued hearing your concerns regarding the bedroom and cupboard during your 5 night stay so we could try to address the issue. We enjoyed having you stay with us and were unaware of your concerns. On checking with the guests currently staying in the same apartment, we were advised they have not noticed any unpleasant smells in the bedrooms or cupboards. The carpets were professionally cleaned a few months ago and we are in the process of installing floating floors in all the apartments, for optimum hygiene and ease of cleaning. As you know, the living area upstairs has been completed. The stairs and bedrooms will follow soon. Since taking over Coull Waters in February we have worked tirelessly in creating the very best facility we can provide.  We take pride in our apartments and in our efforts to make each guest feel truly valued so they can thoroughly enjoy their stay with us in magnificent Mallacoota. Thank you for highlighting your concern. We hope we can welcome you back in the future. Kind regards

Clean, spacious apartment with water views.
A last minute booking when Queensland went into lock down found us in Mallacoota unexpectedly. This town house style accomodation was fabulous! Water views from the deck, living room and main bedroom. The Queen bed was so comfortable, we slept really well. The heating was great (it was very cold at night), we used the BBQ on the deck (the deck is shared with another apartment but we didn't see them) and the kitchen had all we needed to self cater. Take your own salt/pepper and oil though, there are no condiments at all. Geoff was really friendly and helpful. There was off street undercover parking right next to the front door and the apartment was a short walk from the centre of town (5 mins). We would definitely stay here again.

Thank you for your glowing review Sarah. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for your feedback about the condiments too. It’s a great idea. We will now provide salt, pepper and oil in our apartments. We really want our guests to receive the best service we can provide. We look forward to welcoming you back.

A reasonable place to stay
This is a reasonable place to stay. There is ample space for a family with a good sized kitchen and living area, and the bed and linen were comfortable. The furnishings and drapes are quite tired and need refreshing and the bathroom could do with an update, with signs of mould on the ceiling. The new owners are friendly and welcoming and seem to be making some improvements.
