Pub accommodation on the Sapphire Coast means Bermagui, a fishing town on the far south coast of NSW. The Bermagui Beach Hotel looks out over the ocean, with a restaurant and bar downstairs, in a town known for its harbour, its beaches and the Blue Pool.
It's a good-value way to stay right on the water. The pub is run by its publican, so your enquiry goes straight to them — ask about rates outside the summer holidays, when the coast is at its quietest.
A pub room is usually the best-value bed in town. You're paying for a clean room in a good spot, not for a lobby — and the Sapphire Coast pub listed here is run by its publican. You enquire with them directly, so there are no booking fees and no commission built into the rate. Most publicans here quote directly rather than publishing rates online — send an enquiry with your dates and they'll come back with a price.
The value is in what's downstairs, too. It serves meals on site, so dinner is a flight of stairs away rather than a drive. There's parking for guests as well.
