Mollymook Paradise Haven Motel

There was no one at reception at anytime during our stay. You had to keep calling the phone number on the wall outside if you had a query. Our room had a small kitchen but nowhere to sit and eat. There were no chairs, only a stool which had broken supports. The overhead fan had a blade missing and the sliding door to the bathroom had no guide to keep it in place. It’s an old unit and hasn’t been maintained well. When we tried to shower we found there was no hot water and when I rang the owner she blamed us for emptying the tank. I asked for a refund she refused and was rude. She takes your money straight away when you book so be warned and don’t stay there.

Be prepared that this property backs onto a Cemetary- giving it a creepy vibe.Other guests were very noisy until small hours. Room advertised was way smaller than photo( wide angle) and there was not even a tiny bottle of shampoo in the shower.The room says it sleeps 3 - that is if you want your child in the bed. Overall i can say that i hope that the real “ Paradise” is going to be a step up from this

Pretty standard 3 star property. No issues & check-in/out very easy as prepaid & didn’t actually need to talk to a human. No complaints. Cost was a bit high for standard of room, but that’s what happens if you book last minute at a beach location during peak holiday season.

Smells of the 1980s. Dated but comfortable. Didn't see any staff the entire time we were there. Shower door was broken and judging by other reviews has been for some time. Very expensive for what it is

It was a comfortable stay with easy check-in. I would stay again.

What a disappointment after being told by family how great this place was. I wish I would have read the reviews before going. But since a family member had been going for years, we took their word for it. The place was absolutely filthy, had to dust the whole room ourselves. Bugs were all through the room, ants covered the complimentary coffee and sugars. Had to clean out the kitchen cupboards as they had filthy mugs inside. The sheets were an off white colour as they hadn’t been cleaned properly. Tv constantly cut out, owner was giving an excuse that it is the area. No where near worth for what they are charging, unless you like cleaning up on your own holiday. Owner/manager never at reception & laundry never open. To top it off, I got bitten by a bull ant about twice inches in size inside the unit. Only positive was the amazing hot water in the shower.

The room was spotless and bed was comfy. Lovely big bathroom which appeared newly renovated. For what we paid, it was great. The staff went out of their way to accommodate an early check in for us. Overall, perfect for a quick and cheap stay.

This hotel is very tired, needs heaps of work to bring it to an acceptable standard. My wife an I stayed in a really dirty family suite. Although a good shower and mattress, it all needs a thorough clean. No soap, no face cloth, bed linen looked old and yellow. Outside garden was so in need of attention. The entrance/ exit signs were covered in mould. A big dissapointment for us. It's not hard to keep to a standard, these owners, obviously don't care.

What a disappointment…..over priced, room was very average, kitchen old, bed saggy, bathroom tiny, no A/C, location not much good, so shld have checked out trip advisor review before booked …… luckily only one night glad to see the back of this very average motel. Find somewhere else to stay.
