Hillcrest Merimbula

Great regional views encompassing lakes, rivers and the ocean as well as mountains and the township. Perfect place to not feel "stuck in your room" as the venue has beautiful grounds - pool, tennis court, fire pit area and general seating. Unfortunately the weather was pelting with rain during our 2 day stay so we were unable to enjoy the facilities but we were very grateful for the lovely room with the vast view.

I love everything about Hillcrest! The view is breathtaking, bed is comfortable and the room is spacious. The staff are friendly and very helpful too. Suitable for solo or couples. The check in/out process was seamless and easy. I'm already excited for my next visit :)

This would probably have been a 5 star review if it weren't for the lack of quality control in room cleanliness. The positives of this accommodation (decor, location, view etc) are well covered in the other reviews, however in my case were sadly tainted by a very disappointing standard of cleanliness. There were old cobwebs on the sofa, hairs scattered across the floor and bundled in the bathroom and even the previous people's rubbish left in plain sight on the counter. I had similar reports of cobwebs and hair from the others in our group who stayed in different rooms. I'll put it down to a lazy or rushed housekeeper over the long weekend but such simple oversights in basic cleanliness really left a disconcerting feeling during our stay and I'll look elsewhere next time I pass through Merimbula.
