King room of furniture”
Firstly the office manager was lovely and kind, the Motel was quiet, the AC quite noisy unadjustable fan stayed on high. The King room is a standard motel room with some unnecessary furniture making it cramped. The door does not fit and light shows through all around, needs painting, the lock barely reaches into the frame, the chain lock is missing its latch, door replacement required really. Never the less there own website offers cheaper deals to pensioners including hot breakfast, we would stay again then.
Hi, We are glad you did enjoy your stay and as we are an older motel that's getting renovated slowly and we ask this of everyone that stays please tell us at the time if we don't realise we can't help! But we are thankful for your feedback and will get maintenance to asses and fix. thanks, Sapphire
Handy Spot at the Entrance ”
Stayed there as we had a conference at the Diggers Club at the Entrance just a short walk from the motel to the Club and a very comfortable bed
Hi David, Thanks for the great review. We're glad that you enjoyed your stay and the great location of the motel. Looking forward to welcoming you back again soon. thanks, Sapphire Palms Team
Great staff”
Started a little shaky as our booking wasn't on their system. The staff were fantastic in doing everything they could to resolve the issue quickly and they were able to find us rooms for the night. Great budget motel!
Hi Melinda, Thanks for your feedback. We are glad that our friendly and highly efficient staff were able to fix any isues and accommodate you. It would be great to have you back again at Sapphire Palms soon. Thanks, Sapphire
Value for money in prime location”
Within walking distance to the shopping area and waterfront. Basic shared kitchen facilities. Clean rooms and staff extremely friendly and willing to accommodate my needs.
Hi Leonie, Thanks for the great review. Guests can truly enjoy shopping and the relaxing atmosphere at the Central Coast whenever they stay at Sapphire Palms. We’re glad that we our friendly staff were able to accommodate all of your needs. Come visit us again next time. Thanks, Sapphire
Above average”
Not the cleanest place. Rubbish bin in bathroom hasn’t been emptied, you can imagine the surprise I had when opening it... had that motel smell when opening the door. Could not breathe form the heavy smoke in the reception area. On the plus side it was neat and cheap.
Thanks for the review. We have highly improved our cleaning and smoking is not allowed inside any of the rooms. See you again soon.
Very good”
There were some dead bugs when we opened the fridge but not a big issue for us. However considering the price paid, it was still not value for money. However for short stay, it was acceptable.
Hi Amanda, We are sorry to hear that some bugs were found, we have an excellent cleaning staff but this can of course occur. Our rates are very competitive in the area for a 3 star budget motel. We also have a swimming pool, 2 spas, free Wi-Fi and free car space so we feel the price point is extremely good. Thanks for the review Sapphire

Hi Michelle, Thanks for the great review. We’re glad that you and your children enjoyed their stay with you at Sapphire .We look forward to welcoming you back here at Sapphire Palms. Thanks, Sapphire
Nice refurbished room”
The room was newly refurbished said nice and fresh. Even though we were on the corner of a busy main road, it wasn't too noisy. The garden and grounds could do with some attention. Overall, fine for an overnight stay.
Hi Angie, Thanks for your feedback. We’re glad that able to enjoy the our refreshed rooms and the tranquil atmosphere at Sapphire Palms. We’ll continue with the uplift of our garden. See you again soon. Thanks, Sapphire

Sapphire Palms Motel”
The friendly staff were the best thing about this motel.It's a little cramped in the accommodation but for a place to stay overnight on a road trip it's adequate.

Location was good! ”
Carpets need updating! Some beds need replacing due to sagging. But liveable. Staff were very welcoming
Thanks for the review. Our motel has been updated and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Time Warp ”
The place is set in the 1970s complete with VCR player. The pool was out of order and only two towels were supplied for a 5 person room.
Hi Kylie, Thanks for your review. We are pleased to update you that the motel has undergone renovations since 2016. We’d be glad to have you back so you can enjoy our facilities and services. We are slowly doing the property up over time. thanks, Sapphire
