So peaceful. Beautiful place to spend the weekend.

Surprising additional kitchen facilities, and nice sized rooms. Well equipped, clean and comfortable. The staff were really helpful and did their utmost to accommodate our needs at short notice.

Steven, Australia

It's the view from the balcony which every room has. The rooms are so comfortable and you never want to leave! Staff are friendly and very helpful.

Jenny, Australia

The location and view of the property was great. nothing like watching the sunrise. My family have stayed there on numerous occasions.

Whole experience from checking in to leaving was just fantastic. Wonderful customer service, clean and very comfy rooms and wonderful grounds, loved our stay

Narelle, Australia

One of our favourite places to stay.We love the luxurious rooms with everything we need for a comfortable stay.The view is to die for with the water only metres away. The location is perfect and the Fish Co op next door has the best prawns.Love and recommend Moby to anyone.

Dazndi, Australia

Our ground floor studio room had direct access to lovely grassed foreshore with b-b-q area and shade. The room itself was spacious and well equipped. The king bed was so comfy. Could have quite easily stayed longer.

Dean, Australia

Everything. Amazing location. Beautiful room. Super friendly managers
