This motel boasts an incredible waterside location in Port Macquarie with stunning views from the rooms overlooking the water and the swimming pool. While the setting is beautiful, the rooms themselves are quite small and in need of an update. The amenities include a lovely swimming pool and a pleasant restaurant, but the fluctuating prices suggest booking early for the best deals.

The motel has a stunning location with beautiful water views, but it feels a bit worn and in need of renovations. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but the lack of amenities like a lift and uncertain dining options left me disappointed. While the breakfast was affordable, I would recommend exploring local cafes for a better experience. Overall, it's decent for an overnight stay, but improvements are necessary.

I stayed at a motel that has a stunning location with water views, which is a major plus. However, the experience was marred by dated rooms that need renovation, and some significant issues with service and amenities. It's hard to overlook the lack of hot water and uncomfortable noise from guests, making my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped.
Rooms
5.0
The room felt quite dated and was not very appealing, with thin walls that let in a lot of noise from the outside and neighboring rooms. I was surprised by the price, as I expected better for nearly $300. Although it was clean, the old finishes made it feel less inviting.
Service
5.0
The service was inconsistent. While one staff member was apologetic and attempted to resolve our issues, the overall lack of attention to problems, like the hot water and noisy guests, left a lot to be desired.
Location

The motel has a picture-perfect location overlooking the water, making it convenient for walks to local shops and restaurants. However, there were events that limited seating for hotel guests, which was frustrating.
Dining

Dining left something to be desired; the breakfast was self-serve with limited options, and the scrambled eggs were disappointing. That said, the overall dining experience had potential if it could be improved.
Facilities

The pool area had great potential but was overshadowed by the issues in other areas of the motel. I found it frustrating that basic amenities, like a toaster, weren't provided in the rooms.

I had a comfortable stay at Water's Edge, with stunning views of the harbor and a great location just a short walk from shops and restaurants. The room was spacious and clean, and the staff were courteous and attentive. However, the lack of elevators made lugging our bags a bit inconvenient, and some areas showed signs of wear and tear. Overall, it was a great value for money, especially with the amenities available onsite.
