Had a lovely overnight stay in Sandbar hotel on route to Sydney. Friendly staff at check in and little extras like cookies, personal hand written note and little gifts to take with you were an added touch. Facilities in room were perfect and bed very comfortable for an overnight stay. Room well equipped if you want to make breakfast or light meals.

For a last minute booking, we were pleasantly surprised. It was affordable, clean, with a comfortable bed, pillows and linen. The added touches of homemade cookies with a handwritten note, face cloths for makeup removal and a hair wrap,were so appreciated as was the surprisingly affordable mini bar.

Nice place to rest for the night! Staff were helpful and even left a couple of cookies in the room upon arrival with a lovely little welcome note. The room was clean and free parking onsite right outside it was great. The bed wasn't particularly comfortable as you could feel all the springs and any slight movement, but manageable for one night. Good location walkable to town / beach, but far enough that the surrounding area was quiet.

Great stay

Although , the hotel was built in the 90’s the new owners have really made an effort to modernise the rooms . Very clean and bright good quality linen, full crockery and cutlery sets . Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, great kettle . Well worth the stay. Good location, you can walk to beach shops pub etc.

They say the little touches make all the difference. That was true for this one night stay. Home made cookies awaiting you in the room on arrival, chilled water in the fridge and various other souvenirs for you to take with you. Nice! Great location clean room with great falicities.
