THE LOCATION
If it s been a long time since you ve docked yourself at Port Macquarie, prepare to be surprised. The perfect climate and pristine beaches that gave this Mid North Coast beauty spot a name as a retiree haven and a great place to holiday with young children are still here. But there s definitely a Byron-type buzz happening here. The recent annual ArtWalk festival, the town s multi-million-dollar Glasshouse cultural centre, and innovative food and wine producers have stamped it as an arts and restaurant hub.
THE PLACE
Port has great central beaches, cafes, shopping, art and culture and many good restaurants and these are all a walk from the this hotel, smack bang in the middle of Clarence Street. With its spacious rooms and well equipped kitchens and laundries, Macquarie Waters offers couples or families a perfect base to explore.
