    • Perfect little get away, right by the beach which was literally a 1 minute walk. Was very quite and relaxing and the staff were very helpful.
    • Good location, great spot. Easy access to my race
    • Excellent location close to the beach.

    Cons -

    • We seemed to run out of hot water for the shower, which was a shame. Other than that everything was perfect.
    • No wifi ☹️
    • Not much space for long legs, when sitting on the toilet and impossible to reach the toilet paper!

    We stayed in a one bedroom apartment. Recently renovated. Great location literally on the beach. No air-conditioning is the only problem.

    8TraceyPosted on: 1-15-2025

    So close to the beach

    Smelt a bit musky, no aircon

    9SusanPosted on: 10-29-2024

    It is in a great spot with beautiful water view's & the bed was really comfortable

    We liked the way it was set out with a separate lounge room. Although it was old it was value for money.

    Close to town and water, comfortable bed, tidy.

    Bedroom window wouldn't shut properly, toilet ran quietly all the time. Couldn't lock the door screen, all a bit tired. Just fans, no aircon, 50 litre hot water system.

    9StephaniePosted on: 5-9-2024

    Lovely room, with ocean view. Not modern but cleverly designed for privacy and everything else. Quiet part of town. Staff were so welcoming and flexible to our wishes.definitely recommend.

    Great value - nothing to report- it is not flash but was great place

    The location was excellent

    The screen door didn’t lock so I couldn’t get a breeze through at night so it was very hot . The pedestal fan was filthy and I had to clean it before I could use it. There was no spare toilet rolls which is unheard of.

    9KyliePosted on: 2-8-2024

    Location was exceptional. Lovely and clean with great amenities.

    We hope that air con may be installed in the future but appreciated the fans provided.

    10SoniaPosted on: 1-7-2024

    Excellent location. Exceptional view. Everything was new inside the apartment.

    Air-conditioner unit in balcony was a bit uncomfortable as it blows hot air directly on to you. Had to switch off to sit on balcony.

    9ElizabethPosted on: 1-6-2024

    The comfy room and view of the water from our verandah

    No aircon !!!! Not enough lighting - when you closeThe curtain at night the room is dull and dark.

    6GeorgiaPosted on: 12-11-2023

    Great location, safe neighbourhood

    On arrival, we were under the impression we booked the unit and not the motel. I found it quite unclear in the booking. The unit was also very hot with only fans in the unit. I feel as though an air conditioner is a must.

    9LorrainePosted on: 10-23-2023

    Everything was fantastic, the location, the view, the shower and general size of the room.

    The bed was very uncomfortable and both my partner and I were sore enough to need painkillers in the morning to get us going.

    9MeganPosted on: 10-14-2023

    Lovely place near the water.13minute walk on path by water around to Nelson BayVeiw was great.

    Kicked toe on bottom of dine table chairs

    Nothing It’s old - smells bad No people to do housekeeping

    Beds , toilets. Jes - she is very rude. She just came straight into our room without knocking the door

    9JaclynPosted on: 8-2-2023

    The location, room and privacy were really good

    No information about what to do in the area and where to leave the keys on departure

    9IdaPosted on: 5-15-2023

    The location and outlook is superb. Quiet and close to the village and beautiful beach. Staff were very helpful and professional.

    The space around the bed was a little tight....

    9RogerPosted on: 4-11-2023

    Not having a full length mirror.
