Quick little getaway. Comfy bed room had all we needed. Restaurants, cafes and shops all walking distance. Across the road from the water. Great views. A bit more active on weekends.
Check-in was very easy. The lady on Reception, Tasa, is very nice and knowledgeable. Accommodation is very good, clean, comfortable bed. The WatersEdge Restaurant is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Very good live music right next door @ the hotel. The only downside is having to pay $20 per night for on-site parking. Have stayed there three times & enjoyed it.

Wonderful coastal view at The Entrance
We had lovely 3 night stay ( same time as last year) but few negatives - terrible internet - very disappointing - very hard to watch Foxtel (which they provide!) Oaks need to upgrade so patrons can actually watch a movie !!!! Pool also in need of tile repair ( was in same condition as last year)
But we love the location, view fantastic, staff great, friendly & helpful - we hope to get back
really central and overall great .but i thought i had booked a room at the front overlooking the waterways .instead looked over pool at the back with a different waterview
Loved the balcony waterfront views, location and secure parking and lift. We didnt like the broken chairs around pool, missing and broken tiles in pool, only one big luggage trolley, housekeeping services not provided and a broken motel phone in room.

Great location & comfy accom
Very stay & very comfortable - although hotel showing its age a bit (esp the pool): terrific location and I would certainly stay there again for a 2-3 day break. Loved the king bed. Super clean & comfortable.
It was clean and the room had everything for our stay. The pool was good. Good access to free parking. So many restaurants on walking distance. Didn't like the bus stop and so many busses in the morning, a bit annoyed. Overall, the stay was enjoyable 😊
