Pretty good. No complaints. I’m good at having a go at rooms if not to standard - but this was good.

Robyn Australia

The rooms were tidy, clean and nicely presented. It was a great location and easy walk to the beach and main street. The reception staff were exceptional and kind.

Darren Australia

great hotel, modern facilities, clean, comfortable bed, walking distance to main township

Katrina Australia

We loved the relaxed quiet atmosphere. As a teacher, I relished the peace and lack of children. Other guests friendly but not intrusive. The place is spotlessly clean and well maintained. The staff are so friendly, without being intrusive and very obliging when asked questions and advice on the local area.

Inya United Kingdom

The staff helpful and friendly, peaceful oasis with swim out pool, close to everything, shower was great

Rhonda Australia

Great location, walking distance to shops & restaurants. Very comfortable rooms.

Melissa Australia

Everything!! Fantastic place to stay. Easy walk to restaurants and shops. Room was spacious and spotlessly clean and had everything you need. Refreshing pool which was even better with no kids yelling and splashing. Liz on the front desk was extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble, even disposing of empty seafood platters for us. People like Liz with a sense of humour really added to our stay. Will be back for sure.
