BreakFree Aanuka Beach Resort – Coffs Harbour

This place is magical for the nature around. Just beautiful trees and landscapes, nice pools outside and a heated pool indoor. But, unfortunately many things were not as expected, as lots of sandy in the cabin, air-conditioning not working and very dirty inside needing cleaning maintenance. Restaurants were pricy and on the weekend closed, and I noticed multiple indoor areas had the window glass very dirty. Yes, I'd comeback, but I believe there are multiple things could be more pleasant.

We really rate this place.The pools are awesome. What we loved most was the water dragons. They were by the pools, it was as if we were swimming in a water dragon sanctuary. This was a first for us and we will come back to swim next to them again. Not to mention the brush turkeys we spotted in the luch tropical gardens. Great value for money and right on the beach. 👍👍

Currently staying there in 3 bed villa for 5 nights. Dishwasher not working. Hot water not working. Reception too busy to get it fixed. Don’t waste your money on this. In general, villas need interior updates.

we were not told till we were checking in that most of the facilities at the resort were closed, the kitchen, bar and hot tub.

This resort is spread over a large area, great for privacy and space...but not so much for having to lug your suitcase from the carpark to your room through, in some areas, steep terrain. I stayed in a spa bure which was spacious, well decorated...though the bathroom was a bit tired looking and included ants, flying ants and a millipede. My room had a separate bath and spa room, with the spa being directly off the bedroom. The bathroom and spa area have glass ceilings bringing natural light into the room, which is nice...though not when you want to sleep in, as despite the lattice doors being closed the light still poured in. Gardens are lush, well maintained and full of birds, brush turkeys and lizards. My stay included a buffet breakfast, while food was average, the view was great. The dining area overlooks the ocean and the first morning there, I ate my breakfast while watching whales play out the front - I was surprised how close they came to shore. It was a mostly pleasant stay.
