"This place is amazing! I stayed here with my two sons in a two bedroom apartment-style unit. Overall, the facility is great, a luxury apartment on a property that felt like being in a national park. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Swimming pools were large and luxurious with pool-side bars. On-site dining in room service were also great. I would definitely stay here again."

Top Northern Rivers Hotel Reviews

Angourie Resort

Angourie Resort

8/10 Good
"Place was great, I got the balcony 1 bedroom apartment, and the place was clean, except for a forgotten bin in the bathroom. Very spacious, and the balcony has mosquito netting so you can sit outside without getting smashed. The only thing that was odd was the hot water going stone cold randomly, wondering if all showers are connected. But other than that, fabulous place."
