Great location. Nice big room.Very clean and well appointed
Very nice large room. Plenty of space with a good view from front of room. Comfortable beds (I like a softer bed) New fridge, new stove, good crockery, cutlery etc. Coffee machine worked well. Large bathroom with good shower etc.Christine and Jaquie were excellent. Very friendly and most obliging. Nothing was a problem.
The TV let the room down. Too small and located too far away from beds. Very tinny sound. A bigger TV on the wall would have made it 100%! Otherwise all good.
The studio was great comfy bed, clean and spacious. Lovely views.
The restaurant though I know it wasn't connected to the hotel . Also the washing machine needs a good clean on the rubber seal.
Thank you for a wonderful time in Adelaide, watching the sunset in the evening with a glass of wineI highly recommend these apartments.
The blanket smells
Great location if wanting to explore down south. Safe and convenient and offers all the basic amenities.
Door in room 14 was very hard to lock.
Lovely property right opposite the coast. Apartment was exceptionally clean and had everything needed to self cater but there was a restaurant on site ( under different management) that did lovely food and/or takeaway if required. Jacqui and her staff were very accommodating even looking after my purchases of honey whilst I went to KI where it is prohibited to take it in.
Nice room in an exceptional location. Plenty of room and room was well equipped.
Location to the beach was a 2 minute walk. Staff very friendly and so helpful. Thankyou Jacqui. The apartment was clean and beautifully decked out. Couldn't fault anything.
Very clean, spacious room. Friendly office staff.

The coastal motel was beautifully clean, great bed and facilities.
The sunrise and sunset were amazing and the beach is wide and so inviting.
The view and location are fantastic The place is really spacious Noarlunga jetty is an incredible place to snorkel
Very cleanWell maintainedLively ocean view
Great location, clean, well equipped, quiet, sunset views, very friendly and hospitable staff
The only downside was the construction zone on the beachfront being across our view
Location, location. Where the river meets the sea. Beautiful. Large comfortable with great cooking facilities.
Staff were helpful and very friendly. They contacted us to offer complimentary early check-in which made our trip much better as we were able to settle in straight away and not have to wait around for 3 hours prior to check-in. On-site restaurant was fantastic.
Having to go downstairs to the car park to smoke was the only inconvenience. Would have preferred to be able to smoke on the outdoor balcony.
Tidy apartment. Great location.
Wasn’t in walking distance of the main shops but a short drive.
Upstairs room was a good size and nice to have a view of the sea. Multiple beds in room was a bonus. Nice restaurant downstairs (separate to motel) had lovely meals. Well located to the beach and board walk, so nice location for morning walks along the cliff tops.Check in was done remotely, but worked smoothly.
Air conditioner was old and a bit noisy in the night, but did the job cooling the room.
