  Underwhelmed for the price

  My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights . the staff were delightful and friendly - pool area was awesome and pool bar great. Room Service delicious - BUT at $325 each night . I was surprised to discover there was no room servicing - at that price Id expect fresh towels and my bed made. The rainforest walk has been overgrown apparently for years. The email quote I received after a phone discussion stated the package we had included an hour EACH for a massage but we only received a half hour each on the day When I questioned it, I was told it was an error in the email they had sent - even though I had agreed and paid the first night upfront on the context of that email. To be honest - the room was nice , clean and spacious. Beds were not comfy at all for our ageing backs. Having travelled the world Angourie falls way short on providing good service . If you want to charge top dollar then you need to provide better services. The resort was like an upmarket overpriced caravan park to be honest . Apparently after reading other reviews fresh towels are at a cost and someone was advised to use the washing machine and dryer - are they serious ?

  Eager to return

  We used this as a stopover but I wish we had stayed longer. The 2 bedroom cabin was so spacious and comfortable, especially with the covered veranda. We had room service dinner, which was very tasty. The pool and surrounds were amazing and the water was slightly heated to take off the chill. The whole atmosphere felt relaxing and refreshing. Hope I can return soon!

  This over inflated resort has one and only one redeeming feature. The pool. The villa is very dated with a dark timber mountain feel. On arrival I was advised despite being on the website the restaurant was not operating and no breakfast or room service. More like an expensive caravan park. The reception staff were completely disinterested, sent me to a restaurant in Angourie also not operating. The cabin is quite clean with a strong flora smell and empty ice cubes. An expensive swim.

  Slow and dated

  Arrived at 2pm for check-in and room wasn't ready. Sat by the pool and ordered a mango smoothie which took 30mins. Waited 40 mins for our room. Booked in at the restaurant for dinner, we were the first there. Took 20mins for staff to ask if we would like a drink or order food. Ours was the first order. They forgot our drinks and our mains took an hour. Accommodation is a good size but outdated and basic.

  Beware of mice in your room and brown gunk coming out of the in-room spa bath!

  I'll start by saying I have never posted a review on Trip Advisor before (as I'm too lazy tbh) but I hate getting ripped off. Myself and my partner recently stayed at Angourie for a couple of nights. We paid $220 per night for a 1 bed apartment with a spa bath. I have also stayed here before in a 2 bed villa some years ago. There were a number of things we were really unhappy with: We specifically wanted the room with the spa bath to relax in. There was a line of grime around the top already but when the jets were turned on, the bubbles that I had added, were turned brown from what was stored in the jets from previous usage? It was really unpleasant. We had to get out immediately, rinse off in the shower, and were unable to use the spa bath for the entire stay. On our first night we were watching TV and a mouse jumped up from between the wall and the sofa to try and make off with some food we were eating. It then ran under the fridge. We didnt see it again but needless to say it was not a particularly pleasant experience and we were concerned about its reappearance during our stay. The green bins at the bottom of the stairwell to the apartment really smelled revolting every time we came up and down the stairs like someone had dumped some prawns in there and they were rotting. We arrived at 1.30pm for check-in, so we were half an hour early. Given the resort was not full, we didn't think it would be a problem. We didn't receive a warm welcome and were told the booking was not in the system so we would need to wait. This was fair enough but odd as we had booked directly with the resort and not a third party website. This was not a good start! On our last night there, the power was out for hours and while this was not the resort's fault, it was just another thing that was frustrating. On the plus side I will say that they have done a good job refurbing the pool area. However, we feel that for the price we paid for the room, these things were not acceptable nor conducive to an enjoyable stay. I have travelled extensively and that price point will more often than not secure a 5 star room most places around Australia if you are savvy. We expected a better standard and paid extra for a spa room, and feel we did not get what we paid for. In the interests of transparency, I have emailed this feedback to the resort and they have responded with a $50 voucher towards another stay.
