The property was very nice and well maintained. While the staff were nice, they were not overly accommodating and were not flexible when our flights were delayed by a day outside of our control for our honeymoon. We spent our final night at alternative accommodation and they were very obliging and customer service was exemplary.

Dear Kim,It was lovely to meet you and a pleasure to have you here at Coral Sea Resort for your Honeymoon. Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns with me whilst at the hotel. As mentioned, we understand it can be frustrating when an airline cannot meet your scheduled flight time to bring you to the hotel. However, we suggest raising any loss directly with your airline provider or travel insurance provider. Whilst, you have brought this feedback to the public forum, this was discussed with you in person in more depth, so I will consider this matter closed. Once again, thank you for your feedback and we do hope to welcome you back to Coral Sea Resort and provide you with a better experience. Kind regards, Ricky - Front Office Manager.

Booked a king spa delux room at this resort for the 3rd year in a row. Despite being double in price ($600 per night) to previous years, we were so excited to be here. On arrival we were told that we are in a ground floor bay view room. This is not what we asked for or expected. I told reception how gutted I was after spending 10 minutes in our assigned room. I sent a request for room 222 or 322 months prior to arrival and expected something similar if those rooms weren’t available. I was told that it’s pot luck what you get even if you put in a request, the rooms get assigned the night before you arrive and it’s a matter of you get what’s given to you. After spending the first day there and sleeping one night, I cried with my disappointment and went to plead with reception again. Only to be told again sorry but it is what it is! Our room was number 127. Round the side, ground floor and was in total shade from 10am onwards. The sun is hidden by the side of the building and therefore our room was cold and dark. We couldn’t sit on the balcony as the wind rips through coming off the bay. We couldn’t have a spa bath either because of the wind on this side of the resort! Even the housemaid couldn’t open our front door because of the vacuum of wind. Around the front near the pool it was beautiful sunny & no wind. We could see guests sitting on their balconies enjoying their stay. We were stuck for 5 days in a cold windy dark horrible room,paid top $$$ with no apology or care!

Dear Jacqueline,Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for your stay. We appreciate all sorts of feedback. It is always dissappointing to hear that one of our guests had a negative experience at our resort and it is a shame that the weather was not ideal during your time here. Whilst our team offers it's best efforts to fulfill all guest requests, we never promise a specific room number and rooms are subject to availability. We did allocate the room type that you reserved and we would have liked to explore another option for you but we were a full-house over that period due to school holidays. I will follow-up with our team in terms of the quality of communication because we do take this seriously. Once again, we thank you for your review and we hope that we have the chance to welcome you back to our resort to provide you with a better experience.Kind regards,Ricky - Front Office Manager.

Was a standout stay for us. Staff were very welcoming and attentive. Room was well appointed and bed was comfortable. It was a very quiet room. Only draw back was the pool isn’t heated for winter months!

Dear Bronwyn, Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us! It's usually too hot up here for a heated pool. We hope to welcome you back in the summer when it's a bit warmer, so you can enjoy the pool!Kind regards, Taylah - Front Office Duty Manager
