Shared a room here for one night with a colleague - 'a standard triple room' which had three beds. Cost was $180, which I thought on the high side given the age and amenity of the room. It's very much a no-frills sort of place. That said, the room was clean, quite spacious and with good wifi. Bathroom not huge but also clean. No little 'luxuries' like shampoo, conditioner etc. Location also nice and quiet. On the downside, there could have been more powerpoints and the ironing board was one of those ultra-mini ones - a pet hate of mine!

Average no-frills motel room

Popped in for a beer and lunch, got the kids a bowl of chips and gravy and I had the tomato bruschetta. I kinda expected the bruschetta to be a bit bigger. But it was lovely anyway. The kid's chips and gravy were great. Love a pub that does a good size bowl and puts the gravy on the chips instead of a tiny little pot full. I dunno what gravy they use but YUM. 
Great value little pub with play equipment. So interesting to look around inside. I love the style of the place. We will be back for sure. 😊

Family friendly, very welcoming little pub. 

We both had meals from the ‘lunch specials’ list yesterday complete with a glass each of more than acceptable wine. 

Both our meals, fish and chicken, were flavoursome and well presented. They were obviously prepared with pride and care. 

Friendly wait staff as well.

A very enjoyable lunch….

Just ordered food to take away with a 50 minute time to collect. Got there and had to wait an extra 30 mins for the food to be ready; (fair enough considering staff shortages everywhere) however upon returning home, I opened my daughters burger to find a bite had been taken out of the patty! Absolutely disgusted by this so need to warn everyone the poor quality of food being churned out of this place!! Never seen anything like it so would give negative stars if I could!!! Disgusting place so be warned!!! I have taken a picture of this so would post but doesn’t give me the option!! Disgraceful!!

Got delivered food with bite marks in it!! Disgusting!!

Ordered 2 lamb ribs meals that arrived with practically no meat but plenty of sloppy fat. $66 absolutely wasted. Been there before and should have learned my lesson. Chef should be ashamed. Waitress was apologetic and said she had plenty of typical complaints previously. She was obviously embarrassed that no improvement had been done. My daughter suggested if they can’t get it right then it should be removed from the menu. The chips were served under the fat laden lamb ribs and were therefore soggy and not enjoyable in any way.

Meatless lamb ribs

We had a small problem with our room not locking properly but it was quickly resolved.  Basic but nice rooms, comfortable beds and great bar attached. It was great for our toddler. The facilities offered such as a pool and Tennis court was nice. We also loved that the shops was only a small walk away.

Cosy motel

The meal was simply dreadful. The fish was over cooked and dry. The potatoes were brown on the outside but close to raw on the inner. I do not recall leaving a meal on my plate before but it was close to inedible.
They need to replace the cook/chef it was that bad.
Whilst the staff were friendly and helpful the wait was also unacceptable. I believe they must have been understaffed.
Having written a lot of reviews, this is by far the worst.

Dreadful meal

Dined in the bistro . Ordered 2 dishes.
It took half an hour for lunch to be served.
The place was less than half full
We eventually received a couple of dishes and immediately returned one. We both tried it. We both agreed there was something wrong.
We explained that we eat a lot of fish and there was something wrong with the taste of the fish. We were concerned that we might get sick if we ate more. The waitress referred it to the manager who came out and asked the same question and in mentioning the taste she got super defensive saying she sells a lot of the fish dishes and no one else complains so there must be something wrong with how things to taste to us! She was more concerned with the people standing behind waiting to place their orders I guess. We weren’t at all interested in the refund compared to the potential of feeling ill or others feeling ill. BUT they made the point of saying they won’t refund based on our inability to eat the dish put in front of us after 30 minutes!We could have forced it down and thrown up I suppose? 

What ever happened to ...the customer is always right. Not sure if what they did to ruin this dish, nor how often they blame their patrons for constructive feedback regarding a potential health issue, but we would not have fed it to my dog. I hope that didn’t fully ignore our advice. I hope no one got sick today.

Lack of care for patrons 

Traveled up to the Central Coast for a family sporting commitment, and arrived about 6pm.  Struggled to find the reception for the motel, as it was not sign posted at all. Had to walk through the bar to get checked in.  

Room was clean and comfortable, easy to relax after a long drive. 

Good comfortable night stay, conveniently right next to a Coles with other amenities.

Difficult to check out too, as the place was locked up overnight.

Good comfortable night stay

We arrived at The Bay Hotel Motel after an unexpected glitch with other accommodation. We had booked The Bay via an external site which badly let us down. The staff at the hotel could not have done more to sort out the problem! Friendly, professional and reassuring...they were terrific...a huge thank you to Sophie in particular (plus others also whose names I missed.) Comfortable and clean accommodation. Pool and tennis courts were a plus. An evening meal at the Boatshed restaurant was so good and very well priced. Can't speak too highly of this place and its staff! Highly recommended.
