The main attraction was the Mexican restaurant with bar attached (and happy hour, which never disappoints). While there wasn't actually a lot of Mexican food on the menu, what was there was very good. A couple of biscuits in the room with coffee would be good. Convenience - room/restaurant/bar was the big factor.

Family room was clean and well designed. Has a cool retro feel. The restaurant offered a lovely range of dinner options and the spa was a nice end to the day. Would def stay again and we love Nambucca heads in general, first time visitors and can’t wait to return.
