Hotel was fantastic and the gym / pool access nearby with classes was a great bonus, especially for an early morning or late evening class. Hotel was well kept with great parking outside and decent food options at the club adjoining the hotel.
The pool and gym amenities and food and drink options in Club and the fast food nearby made the grandkids very happy and only a few minutes drive to beach.
Fantastic stay. Modern and centrally located, just a short distance from the beaches and The Entrance. The on-site gym and access to the aquatic centre were excellent, The included à la carte breakfast was generous, parking was ample, and we experienced no issues.
Regretted that I didn't book a waterfront resort. The carpark view kills the vacation mood. The restaurants didn't have particularly inviting atmosphere and the gym and the swimming pools were not connected to the hotel. The only positive thing was the shower pressure.
I had an amazing stay with my friend! We absolutely loved the hotel and all the amenities, especially the gym, pool, and restaurants. The room was spotless and beautifully maintained, and the staff provided exceptional service throughout our stay. We had such a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again! ✨
This place is a real enigma: accommodation is excellent, lovely large, clean well appointed room and bathroom but the entertainment/ restaurant/ pool centre was my idea of hell. (Resembles a very busy food court in a noisy overcrowded mall).
The whole complex is in a bad location in a beautiful area.
Not sure what the target demographic is but it definitely didn’t do it for us.
This hotel is well located next to Mingara Recreational Club where you have a number of restaurants and Bars to enjoy a succulent Chinese meal. Excellent attention to detail from the team at checkin.
Loved how new and fresh everything was. Bed was super comfortable.
Lots of dining options right next door with a 10% off discount if you’re staying at the hotel.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Very easy to get back onto M1 either going north or south so great for a stopover. Will definitely stay again
Loved everything about Mingara. The accommodation was excellent. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had undercover security parking which is a big plus for me. The Mingara club experience was excellent also. We had breakfast and dinner there. Service each morning for breakfast was very good and the food was very nice. It was very crowded at 6pm for dinner and the lines to the bar were long. That wasn't so good. We also took our three grandchildren (3, 5 & 9) took the Mingara aquatic centre which was amazing. Heated water a rapid type waterway which the kids loved. We are planning our next trip back to Mingara already.
Reception area and staff were nice. Good location in relation to being able to walk to dinner but you need to exit the hotel and walk in an unconverted area to the club and the pool and gym are a long distance from the hotel (on the other side of the club).
The hotel is part of a gym/sports complex with a few dining options. Free parking, and a short trail to watch birds at the pollution containment area (retention pond or flood control zone)
