What guests think

Across many reviews, Buccaneer Motel is praised for very clean rooms, welcoming staff, and pet friendly stays, offering simple accommodation in a convenient spot near the lake, shops, and The Entrance for straightforward, short visits.

Common drawbacks include some dated furnishings, tight parking, and a few maintenance quirks like very small showers or an isolated plumbing issue. Room layouts and sizes vary, from compact spaces to more spacious options. Expect a straightforward motel stay without extensive amenities.

We brought our 2 small dogs along to this pet friendly motel and stayed for 2 nights. The environment is good and staff are helpful and friendly. The house rules are reasonable for pets. With relatively econimical price this motel provides convenient location to most popular areas at the Central Coast within <30 min short drive. Property newly renovated with good condition facilities. Great for short stay.

All was good. Comfortable, clean and tidy and quiet. There were lots of cars parked, so that means lots of people were staying there. Yet I didn't hear any noises from them. We stayed only one night but it was very pleasant. Thank you

Excellent service from lovely managers or owners. A young couple who were happy to do anything to assist. Rooms are not large and the bathroom extremely small but the bed was comfortable and everything was very clean. We ordered Uber Eats and crockery and cutlery plus menus provided without asking. On a main street but we didn't hear any road noise during the night. Lots of people had their pets which is a great thing. Parking was a bit tight but we had a park in front of our room so no real complaint. Overall a good experience for a single night stay.

The place was listed as a two bed room with Family room but in reality it was a 1 bed room where the second bedroom was also the family room and kitchen. There was an issue where the 1 bedroom door could not be closed without locking it and we did not have the key. Notwithstanding this , the room was clean and usable and the staff were very helpful and freindly.

Nicely presented motel with the common area (tables and BBQ) at the front and close to shops and restaurants. Room was comfy and clean with all basic amenities. AirCon was working well and we also enjoyed the unlimited Foxtel TV channels. Walking distance to the Lake Tuggerah foreshore trail. Property managers were friendly and helpful, lending us crockery and cutlery for BBQ, Allowing us to have a small dog in the room for a reasonable fee was a definite bonus. Will come again, thank you!
