Pros +
- location great for beach
- Walking distance to a pub for a meal. As advised by A staff member because I asked
- Everything was great. Great location, great staff, comfortable, spacious, clean. Definitely would stay again.
Cons -
- room v dark, G floor sharing door with another apartment so didnt feel very safe when door was constantly left open. Other motels provided free washing powder etc but they charged a lot to do washing here which was dissapointing
- Road noise on Monday morning
- Nothing. If I had to complain about something it’s that the parking lot gets cramped when it’s fully booked.

Spacious room Great location Clean and tidy
The bedroom we had booked was a studio and we ended up with a 1 bedroom apartment. This wouldn’t have been an issue if there was a smart TV in the bedroom. But there was only one in lounge. Would of preferred a studio with smart TV over a 1 bedroom
Very clean with all facilities suitable for our needs Close to beach
The apartments close to main road had some traffic noise
Perfect accommodation Clean Comfortable & friendly hosts.Close to food outlets & beach Value for moneyWill certainly stay again
Excellent stay. Second time we have stayed here. Excellent location. Plenty of eating options around. Amazing water pressure in shower. Awesome friendly staff.
Absolutely loved our stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. Quiet, peaceful, lovely decor, awesome spa bath. We stayed in Unit 316 at the back of the property and was perfect for us. Couldn't fault at all
Absolutely nothing we didn't like
Great location for our conference, easy walk to breakfast and dinner. Staff at the front desk helpful. Would stay again, would recommend.
Clean, comfortable, friendly manager.
