What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We were looking for a good old-fashioned pub meal and found exactly that at The Esplanade. The staff were attentive and friendly, the Parmi's were huge and delicious and all were reasonably priced. A great outdoor dining area topped off the experience for us.”
“Great location, Bar service is great wouldnt eat in the hotel as there are plenty of better options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Beds are comfy, rooms are clean. Its the location that makes this place a great stay... Would stay again definatley.”
“Recommend by friends for lunch. Biggest Chicken Parma I have had and so yummy. Chicken Burger was good, just a little too much of the blue cheese mayo that was overpowering. Staff welcoming and service was very professional. Definitely be back.”
“Went for lunch on my day off chicken schnitzel chips and salad Very good indeed struggled to eat it all lemon lime and bitters was exceptional great to go somewhere where the staff know how to make a drink correctly i’ll be back”
“Went here for dinner and the staff were very supportive of catering for allergies. The food was excellent and service was outstanding. Beautiful undercover outside dining.”
“We had a late lunch which was excellent Lovely venue with outdoor seating (dog friendly) as well as air conditioned indoor restaurant. Convenient and interesting location overlooking the busy port. The team are very friendly providing great service including special requests. Some menu items are a little bit pricey but the staples are within the normal pub/restaurant range.”
“We were recommended to eat at this hotel by our caravan park which turned out to be our best meal in a long time!! As soon as we walked in we were greeted with smiles and a warm welcome ! Wow On ordering our meals and having a drink the manager came over for a chat! We felt at home, so sincere and oozed warmth and friendliness! Our meals were first class 10 outa 10! Taste, quality and service. I had the porterhouse steak, brilliantly cooked, while my wife had chicken parmigiana which she said was the best in a long time.. everything about this hotel is first class! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. If you are in Port Headland make sure you visit this hotel for a five star rating meal and service!!”
