NRMA Merimbula Beach Holiday Resort

What guests think

NRMA Merimbula Beach Holiday Resort draws praise for its cliff‑top setting with easy beach access and ocean views, family‑friendly amenities, and clean stays, while reviews also note dated areas, inconsistent upkeep, and frustrations around Wi‑Fi and occasional facility closures.

Guests like spacious layouts, comfortable beds, and sweeping views, though some report small bedrooms, road noise in certain spots, obstructed outlooks, and uneven kitchen equipment or older fittings. Pools, water slides, playgrounds and similar activities are popular with families, but maintenance closures or early closing times and widely reported connectivity issues can disappoint. Expect a laid‑back holiday‑park stay with kid‑friendly perks and a few practical trade‑offs.

Overall the property is wonderful for families, the facilities are very child friendly and the beach is beautiful. However I don't know in what world this would ever be considered a 4.5 star property and the price tag of $400 a night does not match up to the quality of the rooms. We stayed in an oceanview condo. The Oceanview would only exist if there weren't massive caravans right in front of the unit (which there was). The cooking facilities were terrible, old electric stove, and the BBQ was terrible. There were broken cables hanging out of the back of the TV. The couch and mattresses were not comfortable and we were required to put the sheets on the beds ourselves. No housekeeping and no fresh towels. They don't even provide towels for the pool. So yeah, it's a great spot but the word "resort" is inaccurate and no idea who gave them a 4.5 star rating. It's a holiday park, it's basic.

We have stayed here before in beach front cabins. Beautiful views over the beach. Fully stocked kitchen. Very comfy beds and room to move. 10 min drive to town . Only downfall was NO WIFI. They said when we checked in WIFI could be a problem and for us it was. Time to update their TV’s to Smart TV’s. Otherwise great cabins and so many great facilities for the children

Really enjoyed our stay at the park. We had a poolside Condo and the cabin was spacious, large bedrooms with a bathroom each. Kitchen was good but a little old, good private bbq facilities on deck. Good activities at the resort, nice pool, children enjoyed hiring pedal karts and the resort was perfect for them to ride around safely. Water park was closed due to maintenance issues which was disappointing. Pool, pillow, games room all close at sunset. Other places we stayed on this road trip had their pool/s open much later. Recommended a change machine is installed in the laundry rooms as I rarely carry coins with me, but perhaps regular visitors would be more organised. Resort close to beach and nice walk to clifftops. Anything else really required a car to travel.

I thought I was getting a 2 bedroom cabin. Turns out the Seabreeze Cabin has 1 bedroom with 2 bunks and the double bed is in an open area. This should be explicitly stated in the ad but it wasn’t. Also, we were told last minute that the pool was unavailable the entire 4 days we booked. The kids were very disappointed.

Great location and facilities. Originally booked here for the kids to use the water slides but they were not working. I understand these things happen but given its not been working for a few weeks, I feel we should have been advised prior to our arrival as a courtesy. This notification would no doubt assist the wonderful staff as some others were very vocal about their dissatisfaction.

The property we were allocated was dated. Needs a bit of renovation and maintenance. Very clean and neat. Was VERY disappointed when they advertise as WiFi being available when there is NO WiFi at all !! Went to Reception to enquire, only to be told that there's NO WiFi !! Staff was very apologetic. It's the management !!

We had a wonderful stay, our children aged 8 and 4 loved the park and didn't want to leave, the only issue with our stay was the Pool was closed due to unexpected maintenance, ok can't be helped but we had a 34 degree day and yep no pool, then next day 18 degrees and yep pool open. So we never swam and the kids were very disappointed.

Have ever stayed once before in this style of accommodation and found they give a more spacious & practical stay than hotel rooms or some apartments as they are all on 1 level, few or no stairs to access. Parking right outside. The amenities are great especially for families with children and extended family. The access here by a short walk to the beachside was good. While the bed was super comfy and the linens excellent, the living/kitchen area floor good do with a deep steam clean. I took my shoes off out of respect for the property & cleaning staff, but my feet got dirty walking about inside. I don't feel this is up to the paying guest to do apart from a sweep daily or at end of a short stay. Overall a pleasant 2 night stay in a beautiful part of NSW. Best Regards.

The accomodation was good. Would be very handy for a family or a couple staying for a few days with a kitchen and easy parking. Short walk to the water with a great view and a short drive back into town for supplies. Had some not small spiders in the room, but added to the nature side.

We’ve stayed here annually for many years. The cabin we stayed in was tired, not clean (mold in shower, dirt in window tracks, dusty, broken fly wires ) the outdoor sitting area was broken and full of cobwebs and spiders. the accommodation price is not cheap at around $200 per night and we expected better. We won’t be staying here again.

Excellent value for money. Loved our stay and would recommend to anyone wish we could have stayed longer if I am honest . Would be great for a Family with kids.

2-night stay with not far off 36 hours of heavy rain - so no sea swimming, nor coastal path nor lovely beach walk! Accommodation like a UK caravan park (NRMA seems equivalent to that) was spacious, warm enough, comfortable beds, views of sea possible through the villa opposite's BBQ area! Lots of restaurants in town, Legacy of India was superb curry/service and Club Sapphire was excellent Sunday meal (saviour as almost all others closed on Sunday night!).
