Our Most Favourite Place
This is one of our most favourite places to get away for a few nights and play on an awesome golf course. Staff are lovely and very accommodating both at the resort and the local pub which is only a 5-minute walk from the resort. Plenty of choices with the buffet breakfast. A place that is close to home, but you really feel as though you are on holiday when staying here.

This is definitely not a 4 stars hotel. The building looks very damaged, the room was dirty. Don't waste your money on the buffet either, the food is not good, too expensive, and menu was labelled wrong (fried rice had the V for vegetarian, though it had bacon) Staff was nice, but i wouldn't waste my money if i were you

4/10 Fair

Extremely run down!!
Disappointed with the standard of the whole property and offerings. The website is extremely misleading compared to what you are actually offered. There is nothing stated online about needing to pre-book the day spa or horseriding. There is nothing to say the petting farm won't be on. The things that we were told were available weren't as described or necessarily available either - there were no tennis racquets to use the tennis courts, there was no netball court, and the games room was not free, most of the games are coin operated. The pond to kayak in was dirty, stagnant water, not something you would want to fall into. The putt putt and other offerings at the pavilion are so run down. The pavilion itself is so run down. The room was run down and falling apart - taps coming off the wall, broken toilet seat, and just dirty. The water pressure was great for boiling hot water, but not to be able to have a nice shower. Very disappointing stay that's for sure.

Very disappointing resort … unfortunately
Sorry, would like to promote but just can’t. Not cheap (we had sub-penthouse and normal rooms) and very run down. Tapware broken, toilet seat broken and door did not shut, many lights not working and holes in passageway ceiling to name but a few. Facilities (games room, tennis courts, netball, putt-putt etc.) all very dilapidated. Cleaners didn’t make 2nd bed in room, didn’t rinse out coffee cups. Very dark grounds and main restaurant not open, only food available at local tavern.

I had an issue with our booking not being as per request. 3 guys booked and paid for with a 2 queen bed room to be supplied. I have been trying to talk to the Manager now for 5 days and the arrogant piece of work will not take my call or respond to the emails sent to him form the poor reception staff. Good luck if you stay here hope it work out as you will not get any support from the Kooralbyn Resort if you have an issue.

The Property is looking very tired run down. Whilst it is aging, it could still be kept clean and tidy. Windows dirty, balcony filthy. There appears to be no maintenance being done on the property

Low quality motel standard but with a premium cost
Potential for a great resort but very dated, and unfortunately the cleanliness left quite a bit to be desired. The room, balcony and lots of public areas are run down and had lots of dirt, grime or rubbish around. The staff who are working there are great and are fabulous with children, however not enough staff to run the resort efficiently. It was also very noisy at night with parties in the middle / central area of all the rooms that went from 7pm until1030 / 1100pm on 3 nights from a large group (approx 20 people), including speakers, loud music and swearing. This was next to the reception and was raised but ignored. Meant we had tired 4year olds for the whole weekend. As mentioned though, staff are amazing with children and the hotel organised lots of Easter activities.

Booked for my partners birthday and as he liked golf thought this would be a great place. The area of the resort is beautiful but the actual resort itself really needs a lot of maintenance. The rooms are ok. Golf course from my partners feedback, was great course again a little maintenance on the paths and the bunkers need a bit of work as most were hard sand. The buffet breakfast at the resort is overpriced so I would recommend going to the billabong cafe their breakfast and coffee were beautiful.. restaurant at resort not open for dinner during the week so the local tavern is the only place to have a nice dinner. Thought the staff could be a touch friendly with suggestions of things to do around the area rather than just giving us a bit of information on a piece of paper. Understand when it’s busy this is the easy thing to do but to encourage people to come back and them being locals they might give out more suggestions. The lady at the restaurant and the young girl at the golf shop was lovely.

This property was probably gorgeous in its heyday but is very rundown. The worst part was that no one was there when we arrived and the lobby was locked up. This was 830pm and we had not received any communication about a “no later than”… check in time. We had to call three numbers to finally reach someone who could come let us in. At no point was there ever an apology or acknowledgment as to the inconvenience. Furthermore we had splurged on the “penthouse” which is not a penthouse at all really. Not much larger than a regular room. We played 9 holes of golf but were charged for 18. Having said this, the staff we did meet were incredible, especially the lovely fellow at the halfway hut who stuck out there even in a monsoon. The golf course is beautiful and filled with kangaroos. Also sadly very run down. Pies at the turn were 👌.

The room itself had no seating so had to sit on the bed , the bathroom flooded every time we showered, one of the tv’s didn’t work. There was no internet in the rooms although this was advertised as available. Went to play on the driving range but couldn’t as the machine was broken. There was a plastic shower cap covering the smoke alarm which is a bit scary. All staff were very friendly. It was like staying in a cheap motel.
