Good value for money. Right near the Beach. Everything you need , Fridge with ice, Microwave etc.

The homely feel to the complex was fantastic. We utilized the outdoor kitchen and BBQ, which enabled us to socialize with other guests & discuss what we had done & where we had been. The two sisters managing the motel could not have done any more for us and ensured everyone felt welcome!

Ross Australia

It’s so close to the beach, you literally just have to walk across the street and you’re at the beach. It was very clean and the staff was very friendly. It’s a great location as it is at the Esplanade’s with all the different restaurants.
