We were booked on an unpowered camp site which was situated near the lagoon and had a week of rain so our campsite had gone underwater and the mozzies were rife!!!. Staff were able to move us to a dryer campsite (powered and turfed) and did not charge us any additional cost. They were friendly and helpful throughout the process. The rain didnt stop the kids having a ball in the play areas and kidsclub. The park is a family favourite and the beaches of SWR are beautiful.

Reviewed By N1242YCdanielb

We stayed for 4 nights in March 2022. The room was clean and kept clean and the staff were really friendly and willing to help with any enquiry we had which was much appreciated. Definately recoment a stay here. Had a game of squash on the court and used the BBQ daily. didnt swim in the pool which looked fine ,all be it a little small, but saw a young family enjoying it. Used the laundry facillities on the last day. overall it was very good for the price. It's a reasonable walk to town centre but we drove to most places. Have to try really hard to fault it, the fridge was a little noisy buts thats about it.

Girls night away

Reviewed By 810letishah

Had a night booked that had to be rescheduled cause of rain and the host gayle was lovely enough to do that for us and ended up going a month later and still had the rain before we arrived but the weekend weather we were there was amazing, but In saying that we found the location quite isolated from anything other than the pub next door which essentially very quiet and didn’t have much to offer and the River across the road from accommodation, for $350 per night I would of expected a lot more including there was no pay tv the outdoor furniture chairs were all covered in bird poo including the verandah rails, the entire accommodation was very basic for the price. So In saying that gayle The accommodation manager was lovely and very helpful but then the actual accommodation is somewhere we we won’t be staying again.

Basic but good value.

Basic older style rooms but clean with everything you need for an overnight stay. Spend the few extra dollars and get the balcony room. Meal at the hotel was just ok. Very limited choices on the menu. Excellent location right in town. Good value.

Heritage Guesthouse

A lovingly renovated 1880s seaside guesthouse in the heart of South West Rocks. Situated half way between Sydney and Brisbane, on the mid north coast of NSW, this is the ideal location to break your trip as you drive up the Pacific coast from one major city to another. A home away from home!

Lovely room with great view of the beach from our balcony.

Lovely room with large comfy bed. Clean ensuite. Balcony gave us great view to the beach. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The communal kitchen was handy for a quick breakfast and tea/coffe. We have stayed here before and will again when we next visit SW Rocks.

Horseshoe Bay Holiday Park

Horseshoe Bay Holiday Park is situated right on the beach and only a 2 minute walk from the main centre of town. This holiday park is pet friendly (except during School Holidays and Peak times) and the views are unmatched by any other accommodation facility within South West Rocks. South West Rocks is famous for Smokey Cape light House which captain cook named and the top 10 dive spot in Australia, Fish Rock.

Awesome Location.

Reviewed By 993anitat

We stayed at the Horseshoe Bay Holiday for two nights. The lady at reception was very welcoming and friendly. We were given cabin2 which was actually outside the boom gate which was great. No worries remembering numbers and getting close enough to punch them in. The cabin was very old and due for a revamp. However it was very clean and quite functional. We really were only in there at night as days were spent out and about. The location of the park is awesome. You are a stones throw from the beach as well as town and all the restaurants.
