Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Pacific Bay Resort enjoys a location north of Coffs Harbour, letting guests easily access a gorgeous beach and enjoy scenic seaside walks. The rooms are often described as spacious and comfortable, with good-sized balconies and self-catering kitchen facilities, some even featuring a rooftop terrace with a spa bath and BBQ. While some guests have noted a musty smell in certain rooms and older bathrooms, many appreciate the proximity to attractions and the convenience of having a pool just outside the door, finding it great for short stopovers or longer stays.

A mixed experience

musty smelllimited stations
The room did have a musty smell. I turned the aircon on, but it didn't do much. Only one of the two air conditioning units in our room worked. Repair was not an option. The TV had limited stations. The picture was pixelated and jumpy during rainy weather. There was no option for Netflix or streaming services.

I appreciated the convenient access to a beautiful beach, it was a short walk from the hotel. The landscape was well maintained. The restaurant provided convenient dining options ON the premises.
The bathroom door did not close properly. The blinds in the room were faulty, they did not work as expected. The air vents showed rust, indicating age and lack of maintenance, disappointing.
