Upon arrival i was informed there was a problem with the king en-suite room and I had been put in the 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment is terrible, it has not been renovated since 1970, is dirty and no matter how low budget, not with the the money. The poorly fitted curtains over window that have been painted closed or open so not keep out the glare of the million watt lights shining on the hotel, so it is daytime all the time. Do not stay here, the pictures tell the story!
Location was good, staff were friendly and helpful.
However the photos of the bathroom were misleading - the shower and toilet look spacious but were narrow in reality
My father was has a walker and there wasn't enough room for him to walk to the toilet.
There were no shower rails for support (they were actually towel rails).
So the place is not really disability friendly (though staff did provide shower chair).
The mattresses were also extremely soft - making it difficult to get out of bed.
SSightseer173223We had a 1 bedroom apartment that was very.clean and well maintained. The location relative to the beach and shops and restaurants was great. The checkin and out process was very easy and the staff were helpful and friendly.
OOliver TSouth pacific apartments was an overall great place to relax and be beside the beach. Only being a few kms from shops was great. You are welcomed by friendly staff at the reception that give you instructions getting to your room. Our apartment was neat and tidy with a spacious living quarters, fully featured kitchen, premium bedding and a modern bathroom. It was fully featured with appliances including a laundry. Views out of the apartment were really nice, being able to see the ocean while eating breakfast out on the balcony was awesome. The place has a well maintained heated pool and spa perfect for relaxing in the winter months. There is parking provided in an underground parking space assigned to your room. There is a large walking path that runs along the beach from the main shops to the lighthouse that can be accessed directly in front of south pacific. There is no shortage of things to do in the Port Macquarie area during your stay, with many different shops and restaurants being accessible, and fun activities such as visiting billabong zoo, bago maze, or going on a water cruise or even horse riding and camel riding! Many vineyards are also in the area. I absolutely loved every part of my stay here at South Pacific apartments and will definitely be back in the future.
A great home away from home. I have stayed at Aston Hill numerous times since December last year when my Mum went into Aged Care. Having a place to stay where I feel safe on my own is a big deal to me and my husband, especially when he is 300kms away on those occasions. The beds are so comfortable and the facilities are extremely convenient when needing to make a simple breakfast for myself. They even have breakfast packs available for only a few dollars. Annette has always been very friendly and easy to deal with. Aston Hill is also very close to restaurants and shops, making it one of the most convenient central accommodation available. So grateful I found this little comfy oasis in Port Macquarie.
Nice little park. Cabin bunk beds won't win any comfort awards and we had to make the beds ourselves with the supplied sheets. There is a drain in bathroom floor which has no pipe - you can see the ground below and cold air flows in which i found odd. Shower head is only shoulder height, good pressure though. Sign in room indicates you must wash and dry dishes properly or face $50 feet but I wasn't supplied a tea towel, used a bath towel.
