The toilet door required substantial force to open or close. By marks on door it looked as though that wasnt a new problem. Requested assistance and were given a new room that had air con on full blast and adjuster didnt work. We just put up with it. Pity as used to be fantastic.

Good place with very limited food options.

Great place, would have extended our stay by another day but for the following 2 issues: 1. Aircon in room was centralised and not cool enough. It being high summer time, we were sweating at night. 2. They did not cater for vegetarians/vegans. Menu had only 2 salad like options and no mains. The resort is approx 8 kms from jetty so had to go out each time and couldn't enjoy the resort as much.

Great place to stay. The bar and food choices are offered at a reasonable price. Rooms are well maintained. Service is at a minimum of fuss. Staff are all friendly and helpful. Great pool and spa. Nice walk along the privately accessed beach. Highly recommended!

Opal Cove has great potential but it’s tired and need of renovation. It’s on for a one night stopover and the kids do love the slide. The pool area is its best asset.

Whilst we enjoyed every moment in the pool and meeting new people, we knew that we'd only return for that reason. The restaurant is convenient but expensive for the quality and service. Every meal there was a mistake or something forgotten, it boiled down to lack of staff and it being busy. The staff tried their best, but appeared overwhelmed. The rooms are basic, clean and cold, as the temperature couldn't be adjusted. We still had a nice time and were left alone and that's always a plus.

The property seems to have become a bit of a white elephant. The staff are friendly, it is generally clean but very tired looking with overgrown and weed filled gardens. We felt the target market is now budget conscious families but we lived in Coffs Harbour when Opal Cove was the creme de la creme.
