What guests think

At Shellharbour Resort and Conference Centre, travellers describe an older, budget-friendly motel with friendly staff, generally clean rooms, and convenient access to Shellharbour’s beach and village, though recurring maintenance issues and road noise affect some stays.

Facilities include an outdoor pool, tennis court and ample parking, which many appreciate for short stays. Rooms are spacious but dated, with recurring plumbing quirks and occasional noise from the nearby road; bed comfort varies widely. Guests report the onsite restaurant and room service can be good when available, but openings are inconsistent and sometimes closed. Expect a simple, older motel stay that suits practical, no-frills visits.

The room was spacious and reception friendly and helpful. It offers room service and has a pool and tennis court (which we didn’t use). Overall a pleasant stay.

Staying at Shellharbour resort was a bit like going back to the 70's. The room itself was fine - roomy and the furniture was in decent shape. There were several dead beetles on the floor, but at least they were not moving. The bathroom has not had any work done to it since the building was built. The shower enclosure door appeared to have broken, but rather than install a new door, there was a shower curtain over the opening. Rather than toilet paper rolls, there was a public toilet style dispenser that dispensed a sheet at a time. The shower pressure was great, and no shortage of hot water. All in all, fine for a night on the road.

Staff were excellent. The name of resort needs to be changed to motel ans that’s what it is and price needs to be reduce to about $100 per night compared to other beautiful places I have stayed at for the same price. An old bandaid was left in the shower which makes you think how clean the rest of the room was eg sheets etc. Again could not fault the staff.

This place is far from a resort. With the amount they charge per night, far from worth it and I can’t believe they charge so much for an awful old place. The room smelled really bad. The bed spreads and blankets were not clean. There was hair on the blankets likely from the previous people. The bathroom was old and smelled and not clean in the shower. I didn’t step foot in there. And it just felt overall awful and made my skin itch. Furthermore the tv was super old, so don’t expect to watch Netflix or try to stream from your device. Don’t waist your money, it’s not worth it.

Had another overnight stay here in a similar studio room. Bathroom was very nice and recently renovated. The room decor is a little dated but in good condition. We had tea/coffee making and a small microwave. The motel is about a 10 min walk into Shellharbour and about 15 min to its beach and public ocean pool. Reception closes at 8pm and we’d forgotten to organise a late check in but a call to the motel about 8:45 took care of this for us. Overall it’s a pretty nice place for a short budget stay.

Make sure you search the name of this resort on Google Map ... becoz the GPS will guide you to the wrong place if you search by it's address. The Front Desk is not very helpful when I called her for direction after I was lost. It's restaurant is closed for renovation & this resort is sitting on nowhere near anything within walking distance. Again the Front Desk is not very helpful making recommendation re where to eat. It's swimming pool is located between the highway & the resort ... which is an odd place to be becoz it is not quiet neither private. Quite discouraging. The room is good sized & clean nonetheless "not new". Got more TV channels than the usual which is nice. They always left the window towards the highway opened. So if you're bother by the noise, go check your windows & close them. If you prefer fresh air than A/C you can keep the bathroom's window open instead. Works well for me. There's no extra blanket in the room. So if you're feeling cold, the only thing that could save you is the A/C. Whether I would stay here again next time I'm in town ? ... may be. After all it is NOT the best nor the worst place I've been to at similar price range in the neighborhood.

A chair on the balcony would be nice as well. Overall good though right price good location.
