Pool area very good, restaurants available also adequate. Overall appearance of resort is good although looking a bit outdated.

On arrival in room. No beach towels available. No tea towel hard to dry dishes. Linen change only once in a 10 nights stay. Room not cleaned well, lots of dust on louvres. Outside area around pool needs more shade umbrellas. 4 portable umbrellas at start of pool area insufficient and would be blow over if a windy day.Need fixed umbrellas as a better option. Overall a pleasant stay but lacking the finer touches. We are regular annual visitors to the resort.

The Mantra on Salt beach has everything you might need all close by with a huge choice of eating places to choose from and some specialty shops as well. So close to the beach and great walking paths to take you into Kingscliff or Cabarita if you love to walk. Otherwise you can walk along the beach. It's close to the many tourist attractions that Northern New South Wales is famous for. The breakfast at their Seasons Restaurant is a real bonus if you include that in your room rate. The pool is amazing and big enough to cater for a crowd.

It's getting a little bit dated by still makes for a great place to stay. N

Amazing location, the king suite was large and spacious and incredibly clean. The bath was comfortable and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Whether we needed towels or directions to anywhere. The kitchen was nice too and they supplied a large fridge which is much nicer than those bar fridges that don't keep anything cold. The bed was comfortable and clean. The view from our balcony was amazing, even though it is of the neighbourhood we could still smell the ocean and see all of the greenery. We often went for late night beach walks as beach access is less than a 100m walk and the beach this accomodation is built by is absolutely beautiful. It is large and open so even if there are many people you still feel like you get a slice of beach to yourself.

The spa in the room, the walk in pool, the walk to the beach, the restaurants and bars next to the hotel.

Most ocean facing rooms only have a 5% of your view looking over the ocean with the rest looking at either a carpark, a tennis court, a garden or they are not high enough to even see the ocean. So paying the extra money for the ocean view room is not worth it. Booking through Booking.com usually has your room situated a long walk from the pool and reception, so book directly through the hotel if you have kids, an injury, or are elderly. The bar is rarely open so if you want to drink beside or in the pool, you need to walk over to Peppers which is owned by Mantra, but you'll be treated like a second class citizen as you're not staying at their hotel.

Lovely spacious suite. Excellent location negating the need to get in the car everyday. Lovely bathroom and kitchen, comfy bed. I lost a necklace of sentimental value and when it check out I told the staff. A staff member rang to say they found it which was fantastic. I was able to come the next day and pick it up.

Unfortunately our bedroom shutters were completely broken and unable to be closed which therefore let in a lot of light. Staff gave us free breakfast to compensate which was appreciated. The toilet dripped constantly so we had to turn its tap off to get some sleep. It was a weekend so it would be difficult to find a fix for either issue.

We absolutely love this beautiful resort first time we stayed here. Has just about everything you need

The bed's are a little uncomfortable and extremely cold there's only a sheet and a horrible thin cold blanket on top we were freezing cold all of us my husband, myself and our 5yr old son. Another disappointing thing is the bar down in the lobby closes way to early it would be nice to sit by the pool at night with your family and having a few cocktails etc and should have a pizza bar in the lobby The hallways smell along with the lifts and some rooms I think it all need's a refreshing new up do.

Staff were super friendly. Pool was great. Amazing place if you’ve got kids. Bunch of cafe and restaurant options available in the Salt Village shops attached to the resort. Also loved that it was directly on the beach and walking trail so very easy to come and go.

The bar by the pool wasn’t open at all which I found extremely odd given it was peak season - school holidays and the week before Christmas. They could’ve made a killing so their loss I guess but would’ve been nice to be able to have some drinks by the pool in the afternoon. Also heads up there’s a charge if you want wifi which is pretty uncommon this day and age.

The room was as advertised and what we expected. All rooms were a good size, with a generous balcony which enjoys good views. We were on the east side, north east aspect, views toward the ocean over the well manicured gardens - very pleasant. If you're going in winter and you want some sun be sure to ask for a room facing north, preferably on the eastern side of the building, and you should know that a lot of the accomodation is quite a distance from reception / car parking etc. Check in was pleasant welcoming and fast. Check out was fast and simple - NB: They don't accept cash anywhere in the resort.

There was no blanket supplied in the room and it took several requests over about 3 hours to get one. Soon after it arrived another staff member bought 2 more. The glasses supplied for general drinking of water / juice etc were small requiring frequent filling, [though there were ample glasses for wine & champagne].

I had a great view, room was very clean. Convenient location. Short Walk to the beach. Free parking.

It was expensive for me as one person in the hotel room, but I imagine it was good value regardless, $510 for 2 nights is just a lot for my budget. Was told I would have a free drink on arrival then had to ask for it, and was given a voucher which I could only use at certain places which I didn't go to due to it being a wedding, it's no big deal but a cold drink once I settled in would have been nice. The view was amazing and I was kind of grateful to be woken by the sunrise but more sleep would have been nice. The shudders didn't block out enough based on the location of the room- it was beautiful to see the sunrise though!

Peace and quiet. Like how there is an offer to ride bikes down the long paths near the beach. Very clean and appealing. Main pool looks beautiful at night but too cold to swim, wish it was heated.

Says it has a heated pool but the large pool is not heated. There is a small pool near the tennis court that is heated but it is full of little children. It was too cold for us to swim in the large pool during our stay even though it looks inviting. Also the bar overlooking the pool is not open most of the time so you cannot even get a drink and sit by the pool or get a coffee in house. Would prefer if the showers in the rooms updated the shower rose to a pressure hand held rose. Their definition of a sea view is not my definition of a sea view.
