We stayed 2 nights in one of the apartments closest to the beach. They are separate from the hotel and have internal parking with direct access to the 2 story apartments with garage on the 3rd and lowest floor. These are quite new, well kitted out apartments with 4 bedrooms (2 double, and 2 twin). Modern furnishing with all basics... More

Opal Cove Resort was very nice, our Ocean View room had great views to enjoy while sitting on the balcony, the food at Horizons restaurant was well presented and tasty, and the staff friendly. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, what more could one ask for !!!! Will go back again.

Stayed there before as was pleased to go back again....rooms are getting dated, but that's not a major issue, quiet off harbour safe and sound, plus friendly professional staff..pricing OK...The hidden gem is the in house restaurant, top class food and a reasonably priced wine list...

This hotel looks good but beyond the reception hall it is pretty tired and run down. We booked an ocean view room and were not happy at all. The bathroom was very old and in a poor state for such a class of hotel. The basin was cracked, the taps were corroded and the toilet was loose and wobbled when... More

We recently had to stay at opal cove for a work conference and I was very concerned after reading the other reviews on this site. My experience was faultless! The venue was great, the staff were awesome particularly Adam in the bar (he couldn't do enough for us). We stayed in a villa, yeah the decor was dated but it... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights for a work conference. It's a great destination for this purpose, but I wouldn't chose it for my holiday. Our room was spacious but looked dated and tired. The bed wasn't very comfortable and despite the hotel having Wi-Fi, it didn't reach the floor I stayed on. This was very disappointing. The... More

I've stayed here many times over the past 20 years and it hasn't changed much. It's still a great location with great pools and is close to the beach, but it does need a bucket load of money spent on it to upgrade it to current day standards. It's clean, the staff and good and the facilities are great, but... More

Stayed just one night with my daughter. Room was spotless and spacious and had a great view of ocean. The young check in staff were very efficient and friendly. Beds were very comfortable. I found the whole place was a bit too spread out. Took ages to walk from our room to the lifts, then from lifts to pool. Also... More
