Detailed Reviews
Haven Waters Motels and Apartments is an excellent retreat away from the bustle of daily life and offered excellent accommodation, service and value for money. As we were on a trip has a family, the place offered many amenities for everyone to enjoy such as a pool for the children and a well maintained bbq area. The rooms themselves were well maintained and the staff were ready to help out whenever we asked. The kitchen area within our rooms were also well maintained and the beds were comfortable, in our case we had a pull out couch that was also great. The kitchen contained clean utensils and an oven. microwave and fridge. The motel is also in a great location with many attractions and restaurants being a short distance away. The North Haven Breakwall is a 3 minute drive away and there are plenty of restaurants available as well. In case you find yourself at loss at what to do the staff there offer great advice and they have a range of pamphlets available to see what attractions were nearby. Overall, it was a great stay and we were very pleased with the service offered by Nathan and Anna. Thank you!

My husband and I stayed just one night here as a stop from Queensland to Sydney. It was so much better than staying in Port MacQuarie. Our room, no 22, was a good size, it had a kitchenette with a decent sized fridge for our esky contents. The motel is in a good location with great views of the river, we even saw dolphins from our room. It’s an easy walk to restaurants for dinner.
The bed sheets were crisp and white and the white towels were lovely and fluffy which is often unusual for a motel. We will definitely stay again when we next travel up the east coast.

We stay at Haven Waters from time to time as we have family near the Queensland border and like to break our journey from Sydney. Nathan and Anna are always friendly and welcoming. The place is comfortable and always spotlessly clean. The little kitchenette has adequate crockery and cutlery. If you choose to eat at the bowling club, you get a discount when you produce your motel key.
The swimming pool is also a welcome facility during summer.

We stayed in an apartment which was roomy, well appointed and most importantly extremely comfortable, home away from home. Excellent location, we were able to walk to bowls club, cafes and a easy walk along the great walking track beside the river into Laurieton, so you don’t have to drive anywhere if you want. Thank you, Nathan & Anna for welcoming us to your motel.

Haven Waters Motel is in a great location, opposite the river and a few minutes walk to the local club. Very quiet with comfortable rooms with an excellent standard of cleanliness. Our room had a small kitchenette and all the facilities we needed.

This time we spent 8 glorious days at Haven Waters in one of their 1 bedroom apartments. The room was quiet, clean and redecorated since our last visit, the bed was comfortable and the kitchenette more than adequate for the preparation of meals or snacks. The pool looked very inviting but we chose to swim, just a few minutes drive away, at Pilot Beach each day.
Located within just a few metres of the river and the breakwater we had a number of beautiful early morning and afternoon walks - on one occasion being entertained by a a family of dolphins sporting in the estuary for at least half an hour.
It's also a great spot for bike rides - the longer one down the shared path via the waters edge to Laurieton, across the bridge to Dunbogan and on to Pilot Beach at Camden Head is spectacular and so refreshing. One of the locals told us that the Council had received a multi-million grants to complete the missing sections of the shared path from North Haven right through to Pilot Beach. It will make the ride even more enjoyable.
Although this was a busy time of year Anna and Nathan and all the staff were welcoming, friendly, helpful and accommodating as ever.
Can't wait to go back again

After driving from Brisbane we had a lovely and helpful welcome. Our queen room on the ground floor with parking out the front was perfect for our needs. It was so clean and comfortable with everything we needed. In the morning Coffee was a 2 minutes walk and we also drove to the fish co-op and had lovely fresh local oysters for breakfast. We’ll be back.

We were delighted by our accommodation experience at Haven Waters. The front office staff, especially Elke, were extremely helpful, warm and friendly. Our apartment was super-clean, bright and airy. Location was perfect, with great views from a large shared verandah, walking tracks along the river, and quick and easy access to surrounding towns like Laurieton and Diamond Head. Loved the King bed!

My husband and I just had a relaxing week at Haven Waters. Nathan and Anna are friendly and helpful, as were other staff we encounted. Our room was spotless and well equiped with cutlery and crockery. The King size bed was extremely comfortable. Being the Riverview room, we feel we had the best view of any accommodation in the area. We could sit and eat breakfast and watch the river come to life each morning and then enjoy drinks on the balcony in the afternoon. Haven Waters is well located to explore the area, with a good selection of eating options close by. We will definitely be back.

Stayed there for three days in a standard queen room. Very clean and comfortable. Had all equipment such as fan; air conditioning; tv and a kitchenette. Pool great. Had an issue with wifi which could not be resolved in my case. The bowling club is a short distance away... and motel guests get members rates... great!!! Would definitely stay again.

Hi Irene,
Unfortunately we are not dog friendly.

Thanks for your enquiry. The Riverview Carnival is on from Saturday October 10 for one week. WE still have rooms available but cannot do tentative bookings. We run special rates for the week for competitors so it is best you call us to secure a room.
Terribly sorry, we have no vacancies for your required date.
