The overall service was excellent. In particular the attention to detail in every aspect of our stay. Breakfast was amazing. We chose Ana Mandara because it advertised accessible accommodation and in regard to this, it did not disappoint. I would highly recommend Ana Mandara to anyone with mobility issues.

Leo was a wonderful host, the property was immaculately clean and the food was amazing. Seeing dolphins in the river from our breakfast table was unforgettable. Can’t wait to return.

Wonderful hosts - so friendly, helpful and accommodating. The property is very clean and well maintained with all amenities needed and comfortable beds. Leo cooked us some great meals and Jenelle shuttled us to town and helped with anything we needed. We were in town for Ironman and the location was close to town. We would not hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend to others. We are avid travelers and this is one of best vacation properties we’ve stayed at.

This is a wonderful guest house. The hosts are extremely hospitable and friendly, and everything is modern, clean and in perfect working order. When we arrived we were offered nibbles and wine...the host is actually a professional cook...and made to feel like family. Breakfast the next morning was very nice as well, and especially pleasant and relaxing looking out over the river. We could only stay one night, but wished we could stay longer. We will definitely remember this place and stay again whenever we return to Port Macquarie.

The most gracious hosts in Australia! A wonderful location, and a very pleasant room. And a hospitality above and beyond our expectations. Leo greeted us with sparkling wine and home made paté offering oysters and dinner. A wonderful breakfast and such a warm host couple. We loved it.

Hosts were very friendly. Room was very clean. We wouldnt say the stay was luxurious or that it was a fine dining experience for dinner or breakfast. I think the website over promised but it underdelivered.

The hosts Jen and Leo were so warm and welcoming, we woke up to delicious gourmet breakfasts from Leo. They were like family suggesting good spots and beaches and were very kind throughout. The rooms are very clean and always kept like that, the hotel faces the gorgeous Hastings river. Would love to go back soon.

Ana Mandara meaning ‘beautiful refuge’ is exactly that!!! The hosts Jennell and Leo were the perfect hosts from the start of our stay to the end. Leo is also the chef, the three course breakfast and dinner on both nights were delicious. My husband and I both felt very much at home at this beautiful place we even got a visit from the native wildlife, a very loud green frog named Kermit And a kangaroo family in the back garden😀would highly recommend this unique, beautiful place❤️

Absolutely perfect stay in a wonderful property and idyllic setting. We visited in "winter" and were treated to a 20 deg C afternoon and spectacular views over the water from our room (#4)'s balcony. Jennell and Leo were aces; the former with her hospitality, travel advicel; and kind offer to drive us to and from dinner in town. Leo was equally friendly and helpful, and his cooking -- we only ate breakfast, and regretting passing up the in-house dinner -- was truly on-par with a high-end restaurant. We would return in an instant, and wish we'd spent more than one night at Ana Mandara. Highly recommended.

We had a great time as were warmly welcomed by the hosts Leo and Janelle. We felt immediately at home and very comfortable. The service offered was of a high standard and the rooms elegantly appointed. We had a very pleasant stay here and will most certainly choose to stay here again should we travel to Port Macquarie in the future.

Amazing place for romantic getaway! Very nice and welcoming hosts, who’s turned their house in luxury mini-hotel. Fantastic views on the river, where you can spot dolphins during the delicious breakfast made by host. Backyard with bunnies, and family of kangaroos visiting sometimes in the mornings. Big rooms with most comfortable bed ever, gorgeous bathroom, cute terrace. Hosts are very nice, and treating you as most important guest ever, they have given some good travel and must see tips to us! Also, you can find nice jet pool on the main terrace, and you can use their bbq. Definitely recommend, and we will try to come visit again.

Our hostess warmly welcomed us upon our arrival, it was such a personally touching welcome that it lingered in our minds. The genuine warmth of our host and hostess was prevalent throughout our 2-night stay. Every interaction that we had with them was not only extremely courteous and helpful but has been a real pleasure.Our room was luxurious with expansive views of the Hastings River. We simply returned early after our days holiday activities to enjoy our stay at Ana Mandara.Our holiday experience in Port Macquarie became uniquely special when our host who is a trained international chef acceded to our request to cook a tailor-made dinner for us on both nights. He cooked mud-crabs (locally sourced) on our first night and baked pork spare-ribs on the second night. Both dinners were exquisite, tasty and generous.....surpassing standards found even in gourmet restaurants. Our heartfelt thanks to Jennel and Leo for making our Australian holiday truly special.

Just had a quick stopover on our way back to Sydney. Leo and Janelle (sorry about spelling!) were absolutely wonderful hosts. A must do is to have a glass of bubbles in the amazing spa overlooking the river at sunset - dolphins may be an added bonus! The breakfast is amazing - you will not need to eat again all day! Will not be disappointed :)

The owners were wonderful and accommodated us to the max. The room was spacious and comfy; the breakfast fantastic out on the deck with a water view. We arrived late, so they made a wonderful, last minute dinner for us. It even had an elevator to the second floor. A GREAT experience.

We never write reviews about our holidays but on this occasion felt we had to let others know about this superb accommodation in Port Macquarie, Australia. This boutique hotel is run by Janelle and Leo who are simply the most professional and welcoming hosts you could wish for. From the moment you arrive you are welcomed with champagne and a beer and lots of information about restaurants, excursions and things to do in the local area. Their self built home is amazing and looks over the river where dolphins can be spotted whilst you are eating your breakfast. The rooms are spotlessly clean and well presented and put to shame some of the 5 star hotels we stayed at on our extended stay in Australia. Overall this accommodation was one of the highlights of our trip. We wish we had stayed longer and will definitely return to Port Maquarie and the Ana Mandara as soon as possible.
