Our room was spotlessly clean and the beds were super- comfortable. The room had been renovated to a very high standard with a good layout and everything well-thought out. The bathroom was immaculate with a great shower and designer fittings. Parking and check-in was very easy. In a quiet location just a few minutes' walk to the beach, we were very pleased we chose Blue Water Motel for our short stay.

1/ The property is different from the photos on the website. A little bit disappointed 2/ The bath room doesn't have curtain and make the floor so slippery. I almost fell down

I booked online with no expectations of what the accommodation may present. The communications from the admin gave a positive vibe before we had arrived. when I walked into the reception I was made at ease by the lady in charge, the room was not like the usual motel rooms that we have stayed in, in that an obvious effort had been made to be faithful to a beach vibe and retro style. The annexed communal kitchen was a pleasant surprise as was the filtered water (still and spiritic) chilled on tap. Well done you. We were a little sad that we only had one night.

Such cute place I’d come back anytime. Only feedback would be for the reception to open prior to 10am, ie before check out to be able to make contact (Sunday morning). The cleaners were very friendly and helpful however :) We’ll be back.

For our purposes, the convenience of the keyless room access/check in process was really great. Cute room, fitted out with enough to get your needs met with a little Palm Springs vibe. Would definitely recommend if you need a spot to stay in Kingscliff for a few days.

Room was very clean and modern. Had to turn the tv off at the power point to kill the screen saver. Couldn’t use the bathroom after a shower- the floor was wet all over. No tissues, not well set up to sit and eat a meal. Nowhere to sit other than the bed other than a hard steel chair but the room was too small for a lounge. A good place if you just wanted somewhere to crash but, at that price, not enough going for it if you want to chill with someone else

The bathroom is a shocker. As a builder for over 40 years its easy to see the tile floors are too flat and water ponds over the entire area. Either put in screens or get your tiler back to re-do the floors. Plus the people next door having a party were noisey and smoking out the front of the unit, lucky for me I have one deaf ear.

Interesting to have a kitchen room accessed by room 'key'. There were microwaves, cooktops, large fridge/freezer and ironing equipment. Renovated in a retro beach style. Bed comfy but a little soft for us. Traffic noise a little intrusive.
