We recently stayed at the Galaxy Motel and found the staff were pleasant and helpful. The room was on the ground floor as requested and was clean and tidy. The Galaxy Motel is in a convenient location close to local shops, clubs and restaurants. I would recommend staying there when on the Central Coast.

Sun drenched balcony

Reviewed By Fully_Beach_Holidays

Sunny aspect of our apartment kept our room naturally warm. Spent several afternoons sitting on the balcony planning outings in the local area. Just lovely. Light breakfast included in room price was nice. Family size fridge useful for longer stays. Would like to mention the BBQ area on level 2 was undercover and protected from the weather. Thank you to Elizabeth and her team for checking in with us to see if we needed anything.

Lovely Family Dinner

Reviewed By 993anitat

Even though the dining area was quite busy on the Saturday night, we were able to find a table and order our meals quickly. It only took about 15 minutes for our dinners to arrive. My husband and I shared a starter of Chilli and Salt Squid. It was nice but it didn’t have near enough chilli. We then shared the Mushroom Pizza which was brilliant. Really nice Napoli sauce, baby spinach leaves, assortment of very tasty mushrooms, feta and mozzarella cheese. Our son had the Chicken Schnitzel with the prawn topper, salad and chips, while his partner had the Schnitzel with mushroom sauce, chips and salad. Both really enjoyed their meals.
