Gorgeous location, easy drive from Sydney, would have been a nice relaxing weekend if we hadn't have been woken up at 6am from someones uncontrolled child that proceeded to scream, slam doors and throw things at the wall for the next 3 hours....whilst it had a massive meltdown.... maybe put couples with couples and people with children together?
Housekeeping is a bit lax, found old chocolate wrappers behind the bedside tables, and something on the carpet next to the bed that didn't look to pleasant....I opted not to walk on that side..... but otherwise it's a great place.

We had a wonderful few days at Bannisters! The heated pool with the most amazing view was a great way to spend our afternoons.
The breakfast was great and staff were all very friendly and helpful especially Sara Lee.
The room was spacious and clean and there are a number of dining options so you don’t have to drive into town.
There is also a beautiful walk on the beach accessible at the back of the hotel.
Thank you for a lovely stay.
