The properties that we stayed in were in excellent condition and well maintained. We had a slight issue with the hot water unit that was sorted out immediately by the owner/manager. The location is a little hidden gem so close to the beach and a lovely wide flat beach to walk on.
AustraliaLoved our stay at the shores everything was excellent..thanks guys couldn’t of asked for more👍
AustraliaVery large and clean apartment, well maintained, friendly staff, gorgeous beach great for famlies.
AustraliaClean, comfortable and beautifully furnished apartment. Staff went above and beyond to be accommodating. Beautiful location that opened up to Blacks Beach. Would definitely stay there again!
AustraliaQuiet, clean, the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on, it’s not far from the beach, and the managers are amazing.
AustraliaThe unit was very tidy, sanitiser was available also in the unit which is very important nowadays, Kerry explained all the great areas to visit, but it was no use to me as I was only there for 1 night.
AustraliaSpacious, everything we needed was provided and very comfortable. We loved the fact there was multiple pools and the beach was right there for lovely sunrise walks. Although a very quiet location, shops were only a short 5 minutes drive away for self catering. Wish we knew about this place when our children were young it would be perfect for a family holiday. Will definitely be back.
AustraliaEverything else was fantastic. Great family place to stay.
AustraliaRight on the beach! Spacious rooms with everything you need. Great service!
AustraliaThe villa was very clean, everything was accessible. Pool, tennis court, barbeque area and access to a beautiful beach.
