The resort was well laid out on a forested hillside making one thing they were in tropical Queensland instead of 1 hour away from Sydney. The access to the hotel was a bonus and it was an easy drive to Avoca Beach.

Well as I said we stayed there one year ago & it was great so we booked again. But this last time was disappointing due to air-conditioning broke down & ran out of hot water had to wait to warm up before showering & was late for a dinner we organised with friends.

Rooms were comfortable, good to have a little outside balcony. Tea and coffee was a nice touch. Staff were friendly and the kids loved the pool. We had fun at the lake and hired a stand up paddle board, kids really enjoyed this. The beach was great and parking was easy to find. Some nice cafes along the Main Street.

Avoca beach is a great spot, with the beach and the lake you have so many options from the surf, to the calmness of the lake, were children who are just beginning to build their confidence in the water. Especially at lower tides. Other options are fishing, (at the beach or lake) they are both large areas.... Floating objects are essential and there's enough room for everyone! There is also the option to hire paddle boards and boats at the lake. Walking distance to local shops that cater for all your needs, from a convenience store, to butchers, Chinese restaurants and more... a bit pricy, but only a short drive to the larger supermarkets. The park for children was quite small and uninviting for older children.

Avoca beach is nice. Nice little rockpool for families with small children. If the surf club tempt you with the $10 schnitzel on a Tuesday night, I would suggest grabbing something else or cooking something at home. The bar tender on the Monday raved on about it saying how good it was. We already had dinner plans so I went back on the Tuesday. I asked the barman about the schnitzel and he said that "they are pretty famous around here". Well they must be famous for the wrong reason. Probably the worst schnitzel we have both ever had. There is a fish and chip shop that are well priced. We grabbed some and sat on the beach to eat them. Some really nice homes along the water. It was nice to stroll along with the Mrs and the little boy and dream about when we can afford one (average price is around 3.5 million AUD 😮.
