It’s mid-winter and I’m spending a weekend away exploring Coffs Coast. Coffs – our country cousin to the north, our nearest and dearest, yet different in many ways. But, while Coffs vies vigorously with Port and Taree for a share of the tourist dollar, it shares so much in common with us. Where travel exchanges between both regions are concerned, we’re bosom buddies; sporting contests, especially, generate two-way traffic.
Otto and I are in Sydney, staying in splendour at – officially – the city’s best hotel.
It’s also won 2009 best spa and fitness facility, an award deserved for its stunning swimming pool alone. I’m en route to the Pacific; we’re kicking back at The Observatory Hotel, near the Harbour Bridge, for a few days.
The Observatory Port Macquarie brings a new level of luxury within your reach at the mid-north coast’s favourite destination.
Quality Resort Sails on Pelican Bay – Port Macquarie’s only absolute waterfront resort.
Whether you’re travelling for work or play we will endeavour to make your stay relaxed and comfortable.
Ideal for couples or corporate travellers, the hotel is conveniently located in the town centre and offers easy access to Port Macquarie’s main beach, shops, restaurants, bars and night spots.
The cosmopolitan buzz of the town centre is just a stone’s throw from Rydges Port Macquarie, on NSW’s beautiful mid-north coast.
