- The best thing about the place was the view , ocean, and the location , so comfortable with and walking near the beach , the bed were so comfortable, the room were excellent.
- The amazing view from the balcony over looking the ocean lit up at night with ships. Literally a stone's throw from the beach. From our balcony we enjoyed our meals and watching the birds. see photos taken from balcony.
Cons -

- There was nothing to dis like about this place its my favourite place .,
- The curtains didn't meet in the middle - blinding us with the sunrise.The little bar fridge was noisy.We got woken up at 3:30am by the reversing garbage truck.These were only small details and did not detract from our stay.

OMG, the balcony and the view are absolutely worth the room cost on their own. Felt like we were almost sitting on the beach. Slide back the big doors and the room feels huge. Bathroom was fantastic too, add in a big comfy bed and you can't go wrong. Don't book a ground floor room!
Did exactly what we needed and exceeded our expectations.
The room was spacious, clean, and offered a stunning ocean view. The staff were warm and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep.
While our short stay was very comfortable, the addition of a microwave in the room would enhance convenience—especially for longer visits.
I’ve visited The Entrance numerous times, but I’ve never had an experience quite like my last one — all thanks to Ocean Front Motel! You truly made our trip to The Entrance memorable and delightful.Perfectly located right by the water and the rock pool, this place is a hidden gem for anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing stay.To sum it up — I’ll definitely be coming back! ?✨
Lived room 23 with spa on balcony
Excellent quality sheets and pillows. Clean. Good location. Friendly staff.
I’m sensitive so the smell of the cleaning products or air freshener was too strong for me.
wonderful view and great location
no kitchen, can't cook in the room, but it is also a good time for relaxing without cooking.
The view of the ocean from the Motel is spectacular. The rooms have been beautifully renovated. They are functional and comfortable. The restaurant shares the amazing ocean views and provides a very high standard dining experience. The entire visit far surpassed my previous visits to The Entrance and provided a very pleasant surprise.
The staff were awesome, location was perfect and the view was exceptional. Clean and comfortable
I loved the spa and the view !! absolutely amazing
I personally didn’t like that there was no sink or anything to clean things and the hand soap was empty .
great location and good value for money. looks modern
i believe one of the sink requires maintenance. water dripping from balcony roof.
Love the location, room facilities, and warm, welcoming staff.
The room balcony could be seen by anyone sitting at the corner table in the attached restaurant.
Nice views and good location
Upon entry the floors were soaked in bleach. Noticeably wet still. The smell was very over powering.
This is always my go to get away. Location is beautiful as is the balcony view. I always get an upper floor room with a shower or spa looking over the ocean or if I’m lucky enough to get a spa on the balcony I’m in my glory.
The bbq area needs a little upgrade
Our stay of one night turned into three due to unforeseen circumstances. We moved rooms three times and all were beautifully clean, AMAZING ocean views and very comfortable. The staff were brilliant, so friendly! Shout out to Vicky in reception who went above and beyond and was so caring. Highly recommend!!!!
perfect location
bar and food prices expensive
Clean, comfortable basic room, ideal for overnight stay. No view.
It was exactly what we expected and wanted.
Lovely Motel, great views
The town is a little tired, but the Motel and restaurant next door were excellent.
