Stayed one night on a coastal journey from Melbourne to Sydney. The name of this establishment the “Mallacoota Hotel Motel” aptly describes the property with a single story row of rooms in a motel-type configuration. A convenience not offered by similar properties was the two entrances to each room: one from the parking lot side, and the other from the pool and courtyard. The hotel had a good restaurant with generous indoor and outdoor seating areas. Our stay was during the Australian Open Tennis Tournament and we enjoyed watching on the big screen in the outdoor dining terrace. The rooms were nicely laid out with a modern sensibility that was simple and functional. The rooms were comfortable with additional blankets and pillows, ample closet and storage areas, and a separate vanity sink from the water closet and shower. The hotel is located on the Main Street of this small town with easy walking access to the bay’s waterfront, and a short 2 minute drive to ocean beaches, and a public golf course that offers views of wild kangaroos. Continental breakfast boxes were provided that were convenient for customers, and offered juice, a fruit cocktail, cold cereal and milk, which could be taken “to go” for eating out at a picnic table or in the room. The pool was large and refreshing on a hot summer day! The menu’s offerings at the restaurant were many and varied to meet a wide range of tastes and preferences.
