Great week end away

This was our third stay at Kims. We had a terrace spa room which was large and comfortable. The tarif included all meals and the food exceeded my expectations. My only criticism was that the bed was well and truely due to be replaced as it had a distinct slope to it on one side making it quite uncomfortable. Otherwise I would totally recommend Kims for an indulgent break.

A two day getaway

The staff were so friendly and helpful. Restaurant staff were attentative and the food was exceptional. Pre dinner nibbles were provided in the bar and they were delicious. This was an excellent place to relax and enjoy the quietness and luxury of this resort.

Perfect getaway

As if the staff and accommodation and food were not amazing, the setting is stunning with a gentle bay for long walks and pods of whales cavorting offshore. I particularly like that the staff knew and responded to us personally e.g. arranging a Tesla charger, or in-accommodation breakfast because we were leaving early. Not cheap but good value for money.

Location 😉

We went to celebrate a special birthday. The resort is well located on the beach, the suites are well appointed. Fridge could have done with a good clean but rest of suite was spotless! Staff a bit quirky but fine. Food was plentiful but as not a la carte a little dry. This is a big feature of the experience, but it didn’t quite hit the mark! Location a big thumbs up- but very pricy and probably wouldn’t go again.

Outstanding location. Comfy beds but does need a review of the 5 star branding. Kitchen facilities very basic no really decent teas n coffee not even a biscuit or bottled water, need to ask for mini bar to be setup. Bathroom products not 5 star at all great jacuzzi. If went again would not do the breakfast n dinner inclusions. Rigid times for meals not to our liking. A tad overpriced

Relax and enjoy!

We have been to Kim’s on two previous ocassions and it still lived up to our expectations. It is a place to go to relax, go for a walk along the beach, soak in the hot tub and eat,! The food is plentiful, fresh and has a home cooking feel. The seafood is delicious and so fresh. The bar area is lovely for a pre dinner drink by the fire with live music on the Sat night. Loved it and will return again for a special occasion.

A tranquil haven

A hidden gem close to Sydney. Gorgeous, absolute beachfront bungalow surrounded by lush Norfolk pines. The perfect place to retreat and rejuvenate with delicious meals, excellent service and friendly staff. Love the history and traditions of Kim's and the tranquality it brings.

What a tranquil and beautiful, indulgent stay that's close to home! AND WE COULD TAKE OUR BELOVED DOG! Loved every minute and will definitely become regulars. If I had to give any constructive feedback at all it would be to have an option to have dinner earlier than 7.30. That's just me being old. Loved it

Great little getaway

Hotel was lovely, a little dated but the beachfront cottages were in an amazing location right on the beach. A little pricey and rooms are quite dated which makes you question the price but I guess you are paying for location. Food was nice but not amazing but restaurant staff and service very good.

Great location. Friendly staff

Great way to relax and revitalise ourselves and our relationship. Bungalows were very comfy and the meals fabulous. So many choices it was hard to pick. Great home style cooking with a sensational variety of fresh seafood daily and Deserts to die for. The staff were absolute professionals ready and willing to satisfy our every requirement and left us to enjoy the beach and rain forest surrounds. Private outdoor hot tub heaven with our bungalow.
