Loved our baby moon escape here!

We absolutely loved our stay at Mantra at Salt Beach. Staff are lovely, parking is underground, pool is huge and accessible, and beach is metres away. Very convenient, great services, clean and well appointed room and a set up port a cot for our use. We will be back for sure!

The hotel is beautiful, great pool and the lobby is gorgeous. However, we were given an “upgrade” which meant there was no aircon in the bedroom and TV in the bedroom didn’t work.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I have stayed at the Mantra at least 6 times over the past 10 years and unfortunately the property has really gone downhill recently (particularly the last 2 years). The rooms need refurbishing (our room had water seeping up through the carpet in our recent stay last week - leaving the room smelling really damp) along with the common property. The bar area is a real letdown, because it has so much potential. We never saw any staff there and when we did, there was a huge line because it was only one person. It's a shame because it's such a nice area and has so much potential, but we won't be staying here again unless it undergoes renovations.

Falling to bits!

Sad to say that the Mantra at Salt is pretty much done in terms of being a nice place to stay. The rooms are literally falling apart. Upon check in there was a huge puddle of water in the bathroom due to a leak in the toilet water pipe, the laundry door couldn’t be opened as it was not held onto the tracks properly, shutters are broken and snapped and the dirt and dust throughout the room was disgusting. Handrails are rusted and old leaving brown stains down the white walls, the tennis court fence is about to fall over due to rust and the bottom of the pool is coming up in large sections. Decking is splintered and rotten around the pool area and gates do not self-close to the perimeter fencing which is a massive security concern. What used to be a premium resort is now sadly just a corporate function style hotel at best. Not worth the price at all.

Fantastic facilities; however, we stayed for 6 nights and didn’t have housekeeping through once, had a fault with the spa bath that we informed them of on the second day and no one came to fix it, and our check in receptionist didn’t explain anything to us other than where our room was - she didn’t explain the parking, wi-fi or hotel facilities. That was quite disappointing. Beautiful hotel and we have stayed with Mantra before, but we felt that we were not given the full Mantra experience.

Overall facilities are great for families, pool, outdoor area and walkable shops. The rooms itself could do with a bit of an update and didn’t love between the bedroom and bathroom is just shutters, and the bathroom door is shutters, but otherwise has everything you need.

Disappointed arrival

Checkin, room wasn't ready at 2.05pm. Girl at reception would text us when ready. She didnt, we wrnt to reception 1hr layer to check and ot was ready, asked why she didn't let us know, no response, asked sgain no response. She said she would arrange extra sheets, didnt happen, had to contact housekeeping. We booked breakfast for Seasons, got there, nobooking altjough ot had neen charged, we were suppose to get vouchers and girls at reception didn't even talk about vouchers, just said she would book for us. This was all the same girl on reception.. got to room, cards weren't coded, so couldn't access room. All other staff were amazing especially the restaurant manager at breakfast. After the checkin dramas it was a lovely stay, however ckeaning needs to be better.

I love Salt Mantra. The decor is always freshly painted and carpets regularly replaced. Immaculate gardens and the best region in Australia - NSW Northern Rivers. So many happy stays with some many fun friends over what must be 20 years. But Accor have let the team down. The staff are great. Cocktails first rate and Reception efficient. However my last two visits ((i) The safe never worked and despite constant requests for 2 days to front desk, no maintenance person attended. (Ii) How "dumb" is a suite telephone that doesnt have "Reception - Dial 5" on it. And I had to ring on my mobile to get two "Hold, please" responses and no reply. This is not the Sofitel I know, or even the Novotel at Bangkok Airport, or, even the Ibis at HCM Airport. And no beach towels at the pool and no pool attendant anymore. Pls tell head office to supply more maintenance staff, start stocking mini-bar again, providing room service, put up with the odd guest that locks their passport in the safe and has an hour to catch a flight at Coolie A/P. And fix your room hand set up with a Reception # pls, but provide an extra staff member, to give Sacha and her lovely front of office team, a break. But I will be back - because the rooms are spacious, the air unbelievably fresh. The fishing great and the sharks numerous.
