Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We stayed at Shellharbour Village Motel as part of a small group and returned to this motel because we found it very comfortable on a previous visit. It is in a quiet location (no traffic noise or noisy passers-by) and is a short walk from the waterfront and close to a supermarket, specialty shops and a number of excellent restaurants and cafes. The rooms have been recently refurbished and were spotlessly clean, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed, including a very comfortable bed, extra blankets and tea and coffee making facilites. All members of our group were very happy with the accommodation.

Stayed for the weekend in a disabled room. Great disabled bathroom amenities. I use a walker and it was easy to move around the room and the location of the motel was very convenient. I was able to walk to the onsite Aharn Thai restaurant (great food,too) and there is great little cafe only a few doors down (Bayside Pantry). Pretty garden view from window.

Just had two days at the motel. This was a return visit because the first was so good.
Most of the rooms have had a complete makeover and it is a great job. You could smell the fresh paint as you walked in, but not enough to cause discomfort. We had friends with us, they all commented how great the rooms were. The new smart TV's are so clear, would love one at home.
The managers Kerrie and Garry are so friendly. Although the weather wasn't flash we had a great time. Would definitely return.

Spent 5 nights at the motel and had a very enjoyable stay. Rooms were serviced every day which is a huge plus (and not something we experience often). Lovely big room with good facilities and very comfortable bed. Only shortfall was poor water pressure. Lovely big spa took ages to fill. Also in relation to the spa great that you have a handle to assist with access but being quite high, would suggest you think about putting a step on the outside as well. Especially given that the shower is over the bath. For older people or people with limited mobility, it is quite difficult getting in and out.

We were impressed with this hotel as it’s much nicer than the facade would lead you to believe.
The location is perfect being a short stroll to cafes, shops and the pub.
A free saltwater swimming pool and beach are close by.
It’s super quiet and the rooms are spacious.
The renovated room is very nice and comfortable.

We booked 7 rooms for a visit to the local HARS Museum, and were very impressed with everything about the motel. Rooms were spotless, parking was easy and the location was perfect.
Garry recommended the Country Kitchen Cafe for Breakfast, great recommendation Gary !

My wife and I spent a night there on 20 December 2021. We had a accessible room and it was very good. There was a walk in shower, queen size bed and plenty of room even though there was table and two chairs and lounge. There was tea and coffee make making facility. The towels where the same size we have at home and big and fluffy. The staff where very helpful. There was an on site Thai restaurant which was cheap and the food was great in taste and size of serving.

Shellharbour Village Motel is central to everything in Shellharbour. Most places are within walking distance. Sheltered away from high traffic areas, so very quiet.
The room was mind-blowing spacious, the bed super comfortable, plenty of storage, luggage stand, Couch and small dining table. There was a microwave also tea and coffee-making facilities. The bathroom is so spacious. You need to step into a bath for the shower (for us was no problem).
The owners are very friendly, happy to accommodate where they can and very good knowledge of the Shellharbour area. There is a Thai restaurant within the Motel.
We look forward to our next stay.

Nice, clean well run and managed motel within easy walking distance of the beach, the salt water pool down near the harbour.
The onsite Thai restaurant will deliver really good, inexpensive freshly made food to your room.
It's a handy location, quiet rooms with good water pressure and amenities.
Recommended.

So lucky to have found this place last minute on Friday night for Saturday night.And the best part was it was available and they had a family room. The room has two queen beds and a single bed. The room was clean and spacious for us as a family with two teenagers. The manager was so welcoming on Saturday when we arrived and knowledgeable about the area. Upon arrival I was given a Shellharbour book and he showed me that map of where our son would be diving the next day. We were also told about the cafes and the Thai restaurant which is attached the motel. We had dinner at the thai restaurant and it was delicious. I have never been to Shellharbour Harbour before but we will definitely be going back and I would definitely book this motel again but for more than one night

Hi Michael, You may have the wrong motel as we do not have a pool. We are located in the heart of the Shellharbour Village off the main road and just a short stroll to the harbour, beaches, restaurants and specialty shops,
