Not only was our very very over priced room nasty but so was the female manager...needs to learn some manners and customer service skills...we will never ever stay here again would rather a tent. I would definitely give this establishment a big miss...it seems they like company money more than your average joe. ...construction doesn't last forever!

We stayed in the ocean view villas right on the waterfront which cost more than the rooms out the back but were worth every penny spent. We were on a budget but splashed out to get the view in this town and our only regret was not planning a longer stay here. The comunity in Onslow is so welcoming of... More

I'd like to thank you, Scott and the Team for looking after all of us so wonderfully over the last 5 months (some have been even longer). It has been wonderful staying with you guys, and you have treated us superbly. It truly is a wrench having to leave, but we will definitely come back and visit in the future.

Maceral Motel In a word - Onslow ? - Miss it if you can ! 122 km to stay at the only Motel in Onslow is disappointing. Admittably management has changed 3 times since we booked 6 months ago, and it seems the concept of customer service has only declined. Not much in this motel works and they take every... More

We were suprised when we found this place- it was not what I had expected. I really liked the rooms- the couch was so comfy! Both the kitchen and bathroom were brand new and very modern- not super fancy but not cheaply done either. Even with all the construction and mine workers around in the morning, we were not disturbed... More
