Stay was great, downside was we ordered a meal on the QR code near pool and it loaded the table number. It took the order and money and said it was a 30-40min wait. We waited well over that and it never came. We went to our room and then room service knocked and had a cold burger and fish and chips. They said they had already tried to deliver it 20 minutes or so ago and no response. Pretty bad setup in that respect and the burger was not cooked through and frozen in middle. Food was average at best.
Good room, great pool, awesome location.
Breakfast wasn't great, room service cuts off at 8:45, lacking on the mini bar in terms of food, only choclate bars (Woolworths a short walk) Basic bar, nothing great and extremely pricey.
Pool area tables a little untidy and not cleaned regularly.
Would stay there again without paying for breakfast.
Thanks so muh for a wonderful stay, everything was perfect, friendly staff and facilities.
Location was good as we could walk to lots of clubs, cafes, shops etc.
We didn't eat at the property but did get coffee there and it was perfect.
Would definitely return and do recommend.
The property is nice enough but the fact that I paid for a expensive room and there was no hot water and there was a stain on the chair at the desk that looked like it had come from somebody’s crutch was quite of putting to say the least.
We were upgraded to a Executive suite which was a lovely surprise and the suite was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However we thought it was penny pinching charging additional for parking. It would be better to have it all inclusive. Also the restaurant we would rate as 3.
The team at Sails consistently exceeded expectations and delivered a great family experience for our weekend. From booking through arrival, dinner and our check-out they did everything they could to ensure our stay was exceptional.
Well done, congratulations and thank you to the Sails Port Macquarie team.
We stayed here for one night as a stop over option! The kids loved the pool and the room service option. The rooms are very clean and tidy. It’s very conveniently located across from shops and has a playground nearby.
Very comfortable beds. We were given a room which was right in the foyer (121) which felt weird and was quite noisy at all hours but did have a small water view and and pool view. There were lizards and spiders around which seemed like a normal occurrence to the staff. Lovely grounds but I would probably not stay there again as it’s out of town a bit.
The location was excellent, very close to everything and you can walk everywhere. The parking was so expensive at $25 per day which we thought should be included. The room was nice and clean and the buildin is in great shape with a lovely pool.
