it was very nice to stay. We had a really good time there. The bathtub is great and it was sweet that they write a birthday card to my friend who is on his birthday.

Zhangchao Australia

Have stayed at this property many times and again, it served my purpose very well. Due to one of my friends going missing overnight and we raised the alarm the next morning, the Hotel Receptionist on Duty - Maisy swung into action, remained calm and was of great comfort to me and my other five other friends as well. The Police did find the friend, some distance away but, all was well with them. Great effort on behalf of Maisy and the Hotel Team.

Ronda Australia

Close to the beach, small park, trails, beach restaurants... We really enjoyed the beach pool just 3 mins from hotel!
