Top Lobster Beach Hotel Reviews

Mantra Ettalong Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Will definitely be back at Ettalong Beach and stay here, beautiful spot, plenty of great food and coffee around especially Amalfi Restaurant. Plenty to do around the area as well if you love the outdoors"

Ettalong Beach Tourist Resort

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our stay at Ettalong Beach Tourist Resort. The resort is beautiful, with a lovely design and atmosphere. Our room was very comfortable and a good size for three people. We especially loved the balcony, which made the room feel very pleasant, and the air conditioning worked very well. One disappointment was the lack of a general lift. The only lift seemed to be for guests with accessibility needs. I completely understand the need for an accessible lift, but having at least one lift for general guests would be helpful, especially for people arriving with luggage. The pool was also extremely cold and basically unusable. We had been warned it was cold, but it was much colder than expected, and several children were visibly shivering. The spa was not working either and was also very cold. Interestingly, the ocean was much warmer that same day. We loved the Galleria downstairs. There is a great variety of restaurants, cafés and interesting shops, and we spent most of a rainy day there without getting bored. However, many shops closed around 2–3 pm. We were also very surprised that on Monday morning absolutely everything in the Galleria was closed, including restaurants, cafés, the bakery, ice cream shop and shops. Reception told us most venues close during weekdays and mainly open on weekends. This wasn’t clear on the website and would be important information for guests, especially families visiting during school holidays. We also really enjoyed the cinema,"

Ettalong Beach Studio at Palm Beach ferry stop

10/10 Excellent

"This is great value short term accommodation for singles or couples. The unit is located in a converted shop/store; with just a short walk to Palm Beach Ferry Wharf and the water's edge. There is a nice coffee shop about a block up the road. The bed is super comfy!! All linen was provided and fresh and clean.Our host, Irmgard was absolutely lovely, and accommodating to our needs. I would have no hesitation staying at Irmgard's place again."

Nightcap at Ocean Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This place is a great way to stay in the heart of the central coast . Beautiful beaches walking distance , great coffees at quirky cafes . A lovely room , dinner if you wish . Don’t want to recommend too much , might become popular!"

Footsteps to the Bay by HolidayCo.

8/10 Good

"Great waterfront property with lovely views. Our group of 8 ladies really enjoyed our weekend! Clean, great kitchen utensils/appliances, 2 kitchens, 3 bathrooms. Nice flat walk along the waterfront & jetty. Can do a more strenuous walk up & over the hill to Lobster Beach."

Pet Friendly, stroll to beach,cafes & restaurants

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay here. The property is very spacious and would be particularly well suited to a family or larger group, with plenty of room to spread out. It was also a good property for travelling with dogs.I was working during part of my stay and found it very comfortable for working from home, with desk space to set myself up properly.One thing prospective guests should be aware of is that there is currently construction taking place immediately next door. It was reasonably quiet during my stay, with only a couple of builders working on site, although there was some construction noise at times. As building activity can obviously change, I would suggest asking about the current stage of the works when booking if daytime noise is important to you.Overall, a spacious and comfortable property, particularly suitable for larger groups, people travelling with dogs, or anyone needing space to work while away."
