Mobys Beachside Retreat

Good location and facilities. Was lots of mosquitoes due to the wet weather of late.

We attended a 3 day wedding extravaganza in this beautiful part of Australia A number of our party stayed at Mobys. What a wonderful resort. Individual "beach houses" just a short walk from Blueys/Boomerang beach. Spacious and super clean units. Very basic but super comfy everything you need for in suite dining in well stocked kitchen. Great cold/hot HVAC system. It was chilly so we used the HEAT setting and it did a great job! The grounds are stunning. Trees, birds, turkeys. One feels a sense of "Garden of Eden". Wonderful tennis court and pool with warm spa kept the kids very happy. Check in staff pleasant. We had a "slow drain" issue that was promptly attended to. Perhaps the most pleasant surprise was the quality of the food at SIPS the on site restaurant. Absolutely first rate. Breakfast is fresh and delicious. Dinner was as good as any top Sydney eatery and 1/2 the price! The fish is SO fresh. We enjoyed grilled Kingfish one night and it was sublime. The chef/owner [not sure] is a super nice chap. Happy to chat about the locally line caught fish, the menu and anything else. Staff are the best. So sweet and helpful and kind. Coming all the way from Toronto we are used to sour, puss-faced miserable servers who truly delight in abusing paying guests. Not here!! In general - the service industry staff in Australia appears to be so happy and upbeat and proud of what they do. Very true of SIPS staff. What a tonic. SIPS is truly a first rate dining experience at very very modest prices. A very good reason to select MOBYS for lodgings...nice to have fine cuisine a short stroll away!

Would have been happier if there was a railing on the stairs outside the unit and more lighting on the walk back from the restaurant.

Our first stay at Mobys and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this great spot for a family getaway or special celebration weekend. Our booking for three two bedroom villas for 6 couples was handled promptly with no problems. The villas were clean well appointed and comfortable. The proximity to the beach and nearby Blueys was also a plus.

Across the road from a very pristine beach, loved it, no issues. No ocean views but you can hear the water sounds at night. Very quiet and secluded. Pool is nice too. No complaints.

Really comfortable and secluded beach cabins with onsite parking. The hosts were welcoming and provided great information on the places to visit which was very helpful. Seal rocks is worth a visit to see if you can see the whales(between May to Nov). I have booked two nights but could have easily stayed longer. The cabins are well laid out and set up with all the cooking utensils and dishes you need. Comfortable and warm bedding and clean bathrooms. The nearby Boomerang beach was beautiful and great for mornings walks to catch the sunrise. Note there is no WIFI (only available at reception) and no mobile reception so very suitable for total disconnection. The lakeside road was a bit bumpy due to the potholes from recent rain. We were fortunate the rain stopped the day earlier the flood water receded enough for us to get to the resort using the Lake Side road. I would definitely go back when the weather warms up a bit more. There a really good and reasonably priced restaurant and cafe within the resort worth trying. Dinner booking is needed.

We loved our 2 bed, 2 bath cottage. It was well appointed with a lovely deck, new appliances and furniture. It’s a really kid friendly resort while still being a good experience for adults. Unfortunately Sips was closed due to covid but it looked promising. The pool was great. The north end of Boomerang beach is patrolled and lovely. The Blueys shops are great! Couldn’t recommend more highly and we are already booked for next year!

The resort was amazing. Our family of four had the best time and will definitely be returning.

Property was easy to access. Had all the facilities required for a nice family stay. Very close to the beach!
