After reading the other reviews I had expected something better than we found. In fact we would not have stayed at all, except that we had already pre-paid in full. We stayed in a two bedded apartment which was spacious and was quite well equipped. However, the fittings and furniture were distinctly tired and average quality. The carpet was stained... more

Had a great stay for 2 nights. Perfect accommodation for us as we had a one year old. Do need a car for the location but was not an issue for us. more

What a location! Right on the beach. Lovely to feel the warm sea breeze in the unit. It's a small resort-ish unit complex which is good. BBQ facilities fine, pool good for the kids. The unit is pretty big and comfortable to stay in. Will return! more

We stayed here for 5 nights in a 2br 1 bath apartment. Whilst travelling on this trip (staying up the north coast into Qld) this was the smallest 2br we stayed in.

It is tucked away off the highway so you dont get any noise at all apart from the sound of the waves. There is also great fishing straight out the front and... more

Booked in here for 3 nights but ended up calling it short and leaving after the first. The room itself was ok but there was a smell of dampness in the living room and a smell of stale urine in the bathroom. When we arrived we were greeted with an unwanted flat mate in our bathroom, a large spider! which... more

We stayed three nights at the Smugglers on the Beach after reading reviews on here and we are so very glad we did. It is situated out of the actual resort and so is nice and quiet, though not too far out to get to the centre of things if you want to. it is a few steps to the... more
