Best Hotels near Girramay National Park, Port Kennedy

We called by the cafe Clipper for the purpose of a quick drink just after five yesterday. It was symphony on the green night. We were told quite rudely that it was fully booked. We accepted that but told them not a meal just a quick drink. There was a high table and stools no reserved sign on it also two large settees empty. We had checked in got a band on our wrists. The place was obviously expecting bookings in as lots of reserved signs but almost empty at this point. I would have thought a quick drink was possible given the empty high table and settees. But no just told no and out bands quickly cur off our wrists and dismissed. No manners no customer thought at all. No we didn't have a booking. In the old days there was a bar for people just wanting a drink. Maybe not licenced for food without drinks now? But if you want people to come be a bit welcoming. After that treatment I doubt we will be back. No so sorry no nothing. Poor by today's standards.

Staff are always friendly. The food at the bar is great value (10$ premium specials are available every day), the food is well cooked and the presentation is exquisite. The ready-made beer is carefully selected. It’s comfortable to sit in the garden area, you can choose to bask in the sun or sit in the shade. It’s okay to come here for a drink or lunch, but I wouldn’t choose it if I was going to spend a special moment.

Stayed Quest Rockingham. Arrived at 1.00pm requested check-in was told that our 2 rooms were not ready, came back just before 2.00pm 1 room was ready 2nd room was not avaliable untill 2.10pm, The hotel knew we were there an hour before check in, why wasn't both our rooms not ready on time? To add insult to injury new arrivals came at 2.00pm were checked in before me. I believe that Quest Rockingham being part of an international world renowned chain has offered me unprofessional inferior service and an insult by not being able to check me into my room on time I've stayed at the Quest Rockingham 5 or 6 times in the last year but the service this time was certainly below standard. Steveb stayed in room 305B 7/5/23.

Stayed here for a few days Friday to Monday. Very happy with our accommodation - simple with basic furniture. 2 adults & 2 young children. Upstairs were two bedrooms & bathroom. If you find it difficult to climb stairs this isn't for you as the stairs go straight up. Sliding door out to a small balcony over looking the pool. Was spacious & clean. Downstairs was self contained kitchen that lack nothing but being away from home we did live on take aways but all equipment available if you fancy cooking a meal. (Within walking distance is a great eating establishment that you should try and squeeze into you visit). Downstairs toilet with washing machine & dryer. A large table with a comfortable lounge to sit on. Outside grounds were very tidy. Great to stay in summer but would be totally different atmosphere as our stay the weather was May weather. Couldn't fault place if I need to stay in Mandurah again will stay here.

Arrived end of school hols Anzac long weekend. The staff could not have been more helpful and lovely. I too have issues booking thru G'Day so will be booking directly next time. The site we had 133 was terrific for our large caravan, however a family camping next door claimed part of our space as they were spread out with big vehicle big annex lots of kids. Kids bouncing large inflated ball against our caravan and on roof. Minor annoyance and shows how times have changed. The pull ring tabs, hair ties, broken discarded small bits from a camp were everywhere after they left at the end of the school holidays. I really do not know how the ground staff cope. One rubbish bin was full to overflowing yet 60 feet away near the ablutions, was a large nearly empty blue bin. I always enjoy staying here, but will try to miss the school holidays next time.

We have a yearly visit to Mandarah as my granddaughters love it there and have stayed at other resorts. This year we chose the Mandarah motel and apartments as the photos look great , especially the pools, which the girls love. On our first day there we went to the pool, there was no one else there and the girls were enjoying a swim. A woman came over and chatted, she did not introduce herself, but seems like a member of staff , and was wearing some badge on a lanyard, she was basically giving us a pep talk about pool etiquette and behaviour, ie no jumping in, no swearing, considerations of other guests, I didn’t have a issue with this as I don’t like bad behaviour , we followed advice and the girls did not once jump in the pool. We enjoyed our first day and evening, however the 2 nd evening there was a party in the apartment adjoining ours. We were unable to sit outside as our outside area was next to the party, loud music and drinking which went on until midnight, then continued inside the apartment with arguing and swearing until 3 am. We did notify staff around 9 pm, not as a complaint at that time , but asked if there was another apartment as we had children, unfortunately there wasn’t . I then advised staff and manager when we checked out in the morning, also there was a party in the day which isn’t a problem however we were unable to use the facilities tennis / crazy golf, then the party in the evening together ruined our 2 nd day , had we not have been travelling from overseas I’d have put the girls in the car and left . The manager did however tell us that the women who was giving us behaviour advice had no right to !!!! people / kids are expected to have fun in the pool. She wanted us to write a email about this , she was more concerned about the women giving advice then the party / noise / swearing until 3 am. On top of this I happened to move the cushion on the sofa and there was so much filth underneath. On a positive note the pool is lovely, the location is great, and we love Mandarah, would we stay at the motel and apartments again NO !!! Sorry guys

I spent 2 nights here sharing a one bedroom apartment ( twin beds ) with a friend. We had a good view from the 5th floor. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient. The room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed ( self contained ) Comfortable beds and awesome rain head shower and spa bath. The pool area look like it would be a great place to hang out in the summer time… easy beach access too.
