Top Friendly Beaches Hotel Reviews

Swansea Beach Chalets

10/10 Excellent

"What a great location, on the beach looking across the bay to Freycinet. Close to many great wineries and Cole’s Bay. We stocked up at the supermarket (IGA), with a great pub at the end of the street (walking distance). Such a great place to chill with a new beach seemingly around every corner or over every hill is another beautiful beach. Great spot to base and explore the Cole’s Bay region."

Diamond Island Resort & Penguin viewing

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and spacious. The view was breathtaking and the walking areas were stunning for nature lovers like me. I his would be the best comfortable stay in Bicheno that you can get The bed was slightly uncomfortable in terms of the price we paid . The advertised penguin viewing is underwhelming and the best viewing areas were cordoned off in the evening leading to 5-6 penguins maximum available for viewing. Ideally , this should be open for resort guests as this is too close to the venue and we have paid premium for the stay . The other operator has a monopoly and we are stuck if we cannot get the booking from that operator"

"This Motel is an absolute gem . Perfect location , super friendly and helpful sttaff and very reasonably priced . This was our second visit and we loved it again !!"

Iluka Holiday Centre

8/10 Good

"Great little cabin, kids loved the bunk beds. No wifi was good, kept the kids off their devices. Limited places to eat in the area."

Edge of the Bay

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful experience with friendly staff. Great dining experience with a changing menu. The rooms are right on the bay which is very close to swimming beaches and perfect at night for star gazing. We stayed 3 night's but could have stayed for longer."

Piermont Retreat Swansea

8/10 Good

"We thought the resort was lovely, esp being so close to beach. Yes I did swim each day even though it was august. We were told property was wheelchair friendly but you need to have some Mobility. A lot of gravel made chair use a little tricky and a couple More grab rails in bathroom would have been good along with a bench in shower. Breakfast each day would be good as you are a short drive to town. Need to plan for dinner as Sunday and Monday restaurant is shut. Room Could have had a slightly better clean each day as I did leave a bit of sand about from The beach. But beds/heating/location and comfort were amazing."

Apartments on Fraser Bicheno

10/10 Excellent

"Unexpectedly was upgraded to the 2 bedroom unit. Very spacious main bedroom. Kitchen with stove, oven and microwave and a large fridge. The host left little touches like chocolates and a bottle of milk. We an excellent getaway was had. Close to shops (walking distance for those fit people)"
