The Entrance: 3 or 7 Nights for Two or Four People with Wine and Late Check-Out at Oaks Waterfront Resort The Entrance FROM $293 (VALUE $816)

Guests can treat themselves to a sea change and make the Oaks Waterfront Resort The Entrance their new home away from home. Nestled on the water’s edge at Tuggerah Lake, the resort is only 15 minutes from Terrigal and just over an hour from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. Soak up the relaxed coastal vibe with a stroll along the shore and the free entertainment on the Sails Stage. When it’s time to unwind, guests can make use of the on-site hot tub and heated swimming pool before lazing about in their room. The open plan Studio offers couples a comfy place to reside, with a spacious bed, balcony, and tea- and coffee-making facilities. For those seeking a little more room, there are one- or two-bedroom apartments offering separate dining areas and laundry facilities. Travellers can show off their culinary flair in their room, or wander down to a tempting range of cafés, restaurants, and pubs just outside the door.
