    What a peaceful stay

    Extremely slippery shower floor which can be dangerous (I mentioned this at reception when checking out). But I think the biggest disappointment (and frustration) was that nowhere was it stated that most of the facilities including restaurants would be closed. As we didn't want to drive off the premises, we had no choice but to use the only open restaurant on the premises despite it being a considerable walk from our room on the other side of the hotel (I am mobility impaired so it takes me forever to cross distance). But none the less, everything else was good.

    Oh what a super comfortable bed - and such quiet peaceful surroundings with amazing views. Super friendly staff all round from the porter, to check-in, to the restaurant (only ONE open), and breakfast. Good amenities overall. Food was great (had pizza at Herolds Bistro) and nice selection for breakfast.

    The breakfast was horrible, long waiting times for coffee, no waiters, and the waiting time for food was not cool ... The water situation is uncomfortable hopefully that will be sorted soon. The phones in the room didn't work great. On reservation, we asked for a conjoint room the staff did not bother to honor the request

    The spa is always a great idea. The location and clean rooms always a win

    A used plaster found next to the bath,so not as clean as it should be. Rooms were a long way from check out. Asked for porter twice but never came so had to carry all our luggage ourselves

    The place is good. Big rooms and very modern.

    This time we definitely noticed the hotel struggled with maintenance. the hotel is old, furniture and interior is old , wear and tear is evident. the room wasn’t cleaned property, especially the carpet. the walkways/tiles needs proper cleaning. Herolds restaurant was a total disappointment. The lack of Quality Control/ supervision over Room cleaning/service and Breakfast (checking stations) has negative consequences and causes frustration. Construction/maintenance in progress outside at the patio.

    we are returning guests knowing it offers good value as a 4star hotel. we always enjoyed the good breakfast, the spacious room, and located close to Heroldsbay beach - it all contributed to rest.

    Unfortunately the current exterior maintenance is understandable due to visible damp problems. But it doesn’t impact the stay negatively.

    The spa facilities needs an upgrade, overall comparing it to the standards of the hotel it does not meet the expectations of the hotel. For guests that work later than 5 it is not possible to relax and enjoy in the spa as it closes at 5pm.

    Oubaai is a beautiful place, the pool is beautiful and peaceful. The room was refreshed once a day and stocked with new water/teas/coffees. Super comfortable bed and a beautiful bath to relax in. We loved breakfast and all the options it offered.
