Spent the weekend whilst attending a wedding and was greatly impressed with the location and The Entrance itself. Staff were professional and very helpful. Stayed in 1 br apartment - spacious, clean and lovely balcony overlooking water with colourful ski parachuters on the water, carnival atmosphere on the esplanade below with rides for the children and water fountains. I will... More

OMG I am sorry but the only thing I found nice about this place was the pool. Do not stay here. Very disappointed not to mention a very big fire hazard. Putting your life in your own hands. It was not clean, from undies found in the drier to things all over the floor and crockery. There were no knives... More

It was a last minute holiday plan for us, and we got a room here. So I am thankful. The place is right next to everything else. The pool area is beautiful, with 2 spas. The rooms themselves tell a slightly different story. Could definitely do with refurbishing or even remodelling. The best thing about them were the sheets and... More

Location is great.....perfect for beach, fishing, restaurants etc Friendly staff. Good facilities in room (hot plate, fridge etc) We stayed 2 nights and housekeeping didnt frequent our room. Expect abit more for $150 a night.... Very strange bathroom design, elevated bath tub/shower is dangerous (I hit my knee pretty hard). A decent option in the entrance but dissapointing on the...

This is the second time we have stayed at the Oaks Waterfront and both times were pleasant. We have only ever stayed in the ocean view studio + one-bedroom apartments, so cannot comment on the other rooms. Both occasions the hotel was quiet, clean, and comfortable. Facilities (Fridge, washing machine & dryer, small bath, kitchenette in both rooms) and location... More

Two days overlooking lake and ocean from an upper floor, with own laundry, near-new benchtops and appliances and plenty of room made for a pleasant stay but too-high bath entry to over-the-bath shower (which needs a handrail or two) and dangerous little steps into the bathroom and onto the verandah might not suit the infirm or children - a contradiction...

Friendly staff. Basic room. Don't bother with "city view' rooms... ocean view so much nicer. 1st Floor is only 'just' ok.Very noisy at night. They are doing renovations at the moment so hopefully things will improve. More

I recently stayed at The Oaks for three nights with my husband and two toddlers. The ocean view apartment was great. The kitchenette and laundry facilities in the room were very handy. The toddlers slept on the sofa lounge without any problems. The location is great, just a walk outside the hotel and the children played in the waterfountains and... More

I have now found all the bad reports written on TripAdvisor were correct for us as well. I wish I had looked at Trip Advisor before using this hotel. I brought non-English speaking international guests here for a 2 night stay (their first 2 nights in Australia after a 30 hour flight from Europe) and I was embarrassed to be... More
