Budget Hotels in Mid North Coast Waterfront, Australia - New Zealand and the South Pacific

"Clean room with good AC"

"A perfect coastal escape with stunning ocean views and a relaxed holiday vibe. I recently stayed at Mantra The Observatory in Port Macquarie and was genuinely impressed. The location is unbeatable—right across from Town Beach and just a short stroll into the town centre, making it incredibly convenient for both relaxing and exploring. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with a private balcony offering beautiful ocean views. Waking up to the sound of the waves was definitely a highlight. The rooms felt comfortable and modern, with everything you need The facilities were also a standout—there’s a heated indoor pool, spa, and sauna, perfect for unwinding after a day out. The secure parking and free Wi-Fi added to the overall convenience. What really makes this place special is the combination of location and atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing beach getaway or a base to explore Port Macquarie, it ticks all the boxes. Overall: A fantastic stay with beautiful views, great amenities, and an ideal location. I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone visiting the area."

"rooms getting a bit tired and lacking maintenance, bed not as comfortable as some better value stays"

"Pretty good place to stay for a short getaway."

"Very clean and right on the swim-able lagoon; close to beach & fishing; and the nearby cafe is superb (good prices, too). After all that we paid, I felt they were being scungy in NOT providing Netfix .. that is to say, it was available, but they required you provide the download data (hotspot) from your phone .. really ?!?! .. now that's being tight"

"The room was very comfortable and the views across the pool and river just stunning! Staff were lovely and super accommodating, the pool and little playground fantastic, and the breakfast buffet great value. Would definitely come back."
