Mid North Coast Hinterland Beach Vacations

A quiet and easy to reach public transportations, highly recommended for all travelers !

The room was great for our family of 5. Breakfast was fresh and a great selection of options for all tastes

Staff are always lovely and welcoming. Our second bedroom was locked but they sent maintenance straight up to our room to open it up. Even with the planes overhead, the rooms are very quiet and no need for the ear plugs that are provided.

Great location. Friendly and efficient check in. Clean and spacious apartment

Great accommodations and facilities, very spacious rooms but with almost no storage for clothes at all

Definitely did not feel like a 5 star hotel as listed… don’t even include still bottled water etc. Front desk staff not very friendly. Room was clean but definitely feel like they skimped on some of the amenities. Room was listed to have record player and didn’t, only received after calling and asking. Rooftop bar was closed for a private event so I didn’t even get to check that out. Vip drink ticket was only given to me after I asked.

Amazing view from the bedroom

Excellent location. Good value. Probably could do with updating. Staff really helpful.

It was my first visit to The Porter House and I was generally happy with my stay. I had asked for a room on a higher floor and away from the elevator, which they were able to accommodate. It was a lovely touch to see my name displayed on the TV when we entered the room, and a bottle of wine and a hand-written card. It's the little things that made the stay enjoyable. The check-in staff were also very lovely and helpful. I really appreciated them. Rooms: Spacious enough for 2 people. The bed was huge. I love the design and curation behind the decor of the room. The iPad controls were nice, such as automatic curtain openers and light controls. It would have been nice to have extra hooks in the room. I found it hard to find places to hang my towel, robe and bags. Coffee machine was a convenient addition to the room. Cleanliness: Given that I had paid almost $400 per night, I think there should have been extra attention to detail in the cleaning. There were a few crumbs in between the armchairs. It would have been nice for house keeping to vacuum the room more thoroughly as some times, there would be hair left behind. Would also be good to clean the shower grouts every once in a while. Other: One thing that was a bit annoying was the signal. My mum wasn't able to get signal while inside the room, and the TV kept freezing. There were also a lot of older shows on so the options on TV seemed a bit limited.

The staff at the retreat were very welcoming, helpful, and friendly. The room itself could have been cleaner, and it felt a bit run‑down with marks, scratches, stains, and general wear and tear that hadn’t been fixed. We had dinner at the Me‑Gal Restaurant and everything we ordered was delicious. Our waitress, Iman, was lovely, and the view from the restaurant was beautiful. The buffet breakfast, however, wasn’t as good and the staff there weren’t as friendly, though it was still fine overall. We had a good time, and we would stay here again.

Overall our stay was great. Found someone’s pool and some pubic hair under the vanity on the floor and there were some stains/marks on the tile wall of the shower but otherwise the room was clean. I ordered uber eats and wrongly assumed that the concierge might have enquired as to who the order was for and for them to call my room. I didn’t expect the staff to bring it up to me but a phone call to let me know my order had arrived would have been appreciated. Otherwise the staff were lovely and couldn’t do more for me.
