Pros +
- Staff a top bloke who helped us out with diver when my Missus had a flat tyre in the car park!
- The staff upon arrival were very friendly and welcoming. They advised that booking.com was dearer than booking direct ( silly me didn't check prior ).
- We only stayed overnight while driving through, the man at the front desk was lovely. The room was a comfortable size for the 4 of us and the beds and pillows were great.
Cons -
- Not at all
- The huge amount of noise the following morning near the next room.There was argument over something. Not sure who was yelling.
- The room had a bit of a damp smell but with the window open and the fan on this was fine for one night.

It is clean and comfortable Staff are very helpful and friendly
good breakfast and fair pricing
restaurant open for dinner
comfortable, spacious, clean rooms
Basic but clean and well situated. The hosts were lovely. Beds comfy, nothing to complain about. The ceiling fan was so efficient we didn’t use the aircon.
very clean room.
run down pool area, grass needed mowing.
Pet friendly!! Large size rooms, with bathroom and kitchenette. 3 minute drive to shops, beaches, cafes.Good price for money reminding in peek season.
Everything was amazing, Keeping in mind was a pet friendly room most definitely pets have stayed there before, possibly to add an air freshener.
Comfy beds
Unfortunately there was some unpleasantness between guests because the car spots were not numbered. There was a map on the back of the door but obviously not all guests saw that. Not all the parking spots matched the room door.The family room had 4 beds but only 3 sets of plates and cutlery.
It was clean and a laundry for guests to use
The pool was run down, it wasn’t cleaned for the 9 days we were there, gardens not cared for and lawn not mowed, bbq facilities couldn’t be used
A good size room and clean
It was a bit out of the way and was disappointed as I thought I had booked 2 free breakfast but only could get one wasn't clear on website also not alot of choice ie fruit juice and coffee which we both wanted and wasn't available apparently no delivery?? Could have maybe purchased from local shop
Beds are OK..
Bathroom and shower door need fixing..and chair would be good..
Comfortable bed.
The room was in desperate need of a thorough clean. Mould in the shower, windows and screens filthy and broken, mould on curtains, smelly drains, air con old and smelt stale/mouldy. No daily housekeeping done of the room. Could hear the guests in adjoining room socialising till early hours of the mornings.Definitely not value for the cost of the room.
The room nothing like the photo. Like walking back in time not good.
Very old and run down.
Clean, comfortable and quiet
A bit far away from main part of town
Booked super last minute due to being let down by another place and these guys made it super easy to arrive, get in my room super late and check out easily the next day. Room was comfortable, clean, close to the dive centre. Thanks guys!
