Karuah was a great place to get to and experience what it has to offer. Access was easy for everything. The RSL offered a good array of meals and the price was reasonable. I note that there was also a Pizzeria in Karuah - maybe we will try that next time.

It was a lovely 3 day break. We took long walks in the mornings and sat on our balcony had coffee a real pleasure to be there. Took a walk down the long Jetty which was lovely.
Although Oysters were our main reason for coming here unfortunately only in their shells were available and we couldn't shuck them so we missed out. Never mind the RSL Bowls club had lovely meals and we ate there each night. We would stay there again in a flash.

Overpriced for what it was.
Overpriced for what it was.
No window for fresh air, you have to leave the sliding door open ( lucky it actually locked.)
A room for 4 guests, we did book for 2…had 4 towels but only 1 washer.
Only water supply for kettle was the bathroom sink.
4 glasses, 4 tea/ coffee cups & tea spoons supplied nothing else…so even if we wanted to use the toaster supplied there was no other cutlery or crockery.
Small coffee plunger supplied with about a tea spoon of ground coffee- not enough for even 1 cup.
1 little pack of long life milk for 2 people for the night & morning- lucky I had my own supply.
Bed was comfy.
Will not be returning

We found the cabins large and clean and beds very comfortable, heating and cooling was perfect, TVs reception was great and it was very quiet considering we were next to the hwy. Bathrooms were of an average size and towels and linen were supplied.

We only stayed for one night while passing through.
Easy checkin and checkout service.
We unfortunately had noisy neighbours who sat outside our door till late chatting and again before 7am were outside with their kids. Showers from adjoining rooms were noisy, but the actual room and amenities were perfect for the night. Not much in town to do except head to the rsl for a meal, which was great!
I would stay there again.

Accommodation is in a small town but all the conveniences are close and easy especially with meal times for families including bakery, grocery store, cafes and local club for dinner. Karuah isnt far away from Nelson Bay, Newcastle and Hunter Valley its a great base to start your day trips. It is also very close to activities for kids like the Oakvale Wildlife Park, Hunter Valley Gardens. The entertainment at the Big 4 is also enough to entertain kiddies if you want a relaxing time without the travel each day. Onsite facilities more suited to small kids. Karuah is really more of a base as activities outside accommodation were not as entertaining for my kids.
We have stayed at the Karuah Motor Inn once a year for the last 5 years and we find it most comfortable. Close to the RSL for dinner and near the IGA and the bottlo. We had to go to Tea Gardens on the Saturday so it was only a 15 minute drive there.
Karuah jetty was beautiful, and we spotted few dolphins swimming around.
We enjoyed the buggy rides around the park.
Kitchen was well equipped with the basics if you want to cook a meal. Cabin was clean.
Cheap and cheerful accomodation, located conveniently on highway north of Raymond terrace MS and south of Karuah. Beds were reasonably comfortable. Late check-in available if you’ve pre-paid.
We had 2 rooms.Well presented rooms. Neat, clean and quiet.
Comfy well made bed.
Great water pressure and no shortage of hot water.
We ate at the hotel. Good serving and great food.
