Top hotels in Warilla
La Palma Beach House
Place was not clean. Floors were filthy, baseboards, etc. The blinds in the guest house were broken as well. Also, needed washcloths added to the towels. Otherwise beautiful location. Just more cleaning before guests.

Great room

Harp Hotel
The room was clean, the beds comfortable, and the sound of the pub was significantly more reduced in the room. Fantastic! The only reason I don’t give a 5 star review is because I tend not to trust 5 star reviews

Mantra Wollongong
They don’t move the blinds to clean so there was dead bugs by the windows and under the bed was very dirty. Needs a Reno and a good clean! Spacious though and good if you have a dog.
