Pros
- The beaches would be among the best in the world.
- Greenery
- Nature attractions/urban wildlife
- Improvements on waterfront world class
- Beach walkway from Town to Lighthouse beach amazing.
Cons
- Roads are simply appalling in many places, just pothole covers holding hands and a should be a real embarrassment to local council, though looks in places they have started fixing the problem
- High elderly and low socio-economic population, kind of depressing local population
- Population/development explosion, high rents and tariffs
- Lots of hoons and bogans, exercise vigilance late at night
- Increasingly visible homeless problem
- Town is over promoted and exploited, certainly not a place to "get away from it all" anymore, its got plenty of what you came to escape, best to come outside of public and school holidays, always some pesky "festival" or event going on blocking roads and causing chaos
- Not a quaint fishing/holiday destination anymore
- If you strike a "Red Weed" season on your holiday, any beach-river activities are ruined.
-Service in most establishments is terrible

Happy and helpful staff at motel and EI restaurant.
Happy and helpful staff at motel and EI restaurant. The comfiest bed 🫠 you could ask for and walking distance to river, beach, restaurants and shopping centre. Given Free coffees upon book in for breakfast was a lovely bonus. 😊
Only disappointment was upgraded to balcony for the treat of the view of the river as shown in picture. We had a view of a car park. 😟

The Bowling Club was located at the back of the apartment building and only a short stroll away. Perfect place for dinner. Also love the restaurant at Westport for dinner. We have been there numerous times and never disappointed.
We have stayed in PM numerous times and always love coming back. Great accommodation, walks, beach and cafes. The Sea Acres Rainforest is definitely worth a visit and the food at the Cafe is lovely.

Nice Getaway.
Nice Getaway.
You can do Jet Ski at $240 per hour, and can swap drivers.
Sea Plane ride was good, but not comfortable.
Book a day in advance else you have to come back next day.
One thing is food is expensive in the place.

Vibrant town centre with lots of restaurants and harbour/ estuary views. Great beaches and walks up to the lighthouse at Tacking Point. Must-do staging point if travelling by car between Brisbane and Sydney. Glad we stayed 2 nights rather than 1.

Parking in the centre of Port Macquarie was in very short supply.
Bikes being ridden on the breakwater path was dangerous.
The gentleman cleaning tables and seats on the boardwalk is doing a great and friendly service for the tourists.
Amazing accommodation. My partner and I stayed at Sandcastles for a week and it was the best stay in Port Macquarie. We had the one bedroom with the balcony ocean view. The apartment was updated and the bed was comfy. Directly across from the apartments is Town Beach. From there you can walk into the main part of town or go for an afternoon stroll along the boardwalk hoping to see dolphins. Security is fantastic and the parking is secure as well. Also at the back of the apartments is Port City bowling club where the meals are very delicios
the room was very clean and tidy and there were lots of facilities such as laundry, BBQ and guest kitchen, so for an extended stay, it was good. It is also close to coles shopping, the university and also the hospital.
we stayed here as it was cheap and we had to attend a two-day swimming carnival so basically in and out each day. All we needed was somewhere clean and today with a warm shower and fridge
Convenient drive to beaches and town, though far more responsive Flynn's Beach accommodation is available slightly cheaper one street away at a higher standard offering much more responsiveness to messages and phone calls re: check-in, key collection questions we had, means I'd chose them over this accommodation next time I'm in Port Macquarie, once a month.
Reasonably priced room for the facilities, good location, close to a park where I could go for a run. I did have to drive into Port Macquarie CBD to get stuff to eat and drink but wasn't that much of a problem since the place was at least half the cost of most of the accommodations closer to the CBD.
Property was clean & comfortable. it was conveniently located to town and the the beach. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. I would gladly stay at Beach House Holiday Apartments again & have no hesitation in recommending to anyone staying in Port Macquarie.
This is a really good central location in Port Macquarie, right on the waterfront and close to lots of dining options. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. Secure parking under the hotel is well worth paying for.
Absolutely everything, extremely clean,modern,comfortable, we have been travelling for a few months here and overseas. This place is 5 star. Dare I say too cheap! Many thanks if we pass through again, top of our list.
Excellent location and the hotel has recently ( past 2 to 3 years) been refurbished in an understated contemporary style. The staff in the Boathouse restaurant are excellent and the food is 5 star!
Great position in Port Macquarie . A quiet hotel with good facilities and anything you need is close. Room is spacious and kitchen facilities were very good. Great place for a 5 night stay.
The rooms were very clean and comfortable, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the parking on site was very good value. The hotel is located near many great shops and food places.
great caring staff, great variety In breakfast and perfect location close to beach and all amenities. the property is well maintained for its age. I became a Rydges member straight away.
Hotel was cheap and I could park my new car in front of my room and keep an eye on it. The outside lights turned off around 9.30pm to stop people hanging around outside.
Wonderful old hotel, plenty of room and comfy beds. Nice and clean and a great quiet location. Highly recommended for a quick stopover or a short break.
