The property is showing its age but the room was clean and functional. Staff were friendly and it was only a quick walk into town, to the beach, or to tourist spots and hikes. Good value for the money.

Small old school drive up to room motel. It suited our needs as we really only needed a bed at night. We were out during the days and dinner times. Budget property, close to main shopping, walking distance to most amenities, beach & shops.

Quick Trip for a Wedding

Great location. Easy walk to town and beach. Our family of 4 adults stayed in the family suit for 2 nights and suited us just fine. Staff were very friendly and helpful. It rained on the day of the wedding and they even had umbrellas for us to borrow. Would definitely recommend this property.

Easy walk to town. Straight out the back gate to the beach. Spacious room with toaster and microwave. Impressed that they had security screens in the windows so you could safely have windows open at night rather than running the airconditioning.

For a motel it was a quite good hotel, but it didn’t look super clean and most of it looked already very used. For one night I guess it is ok but I wouldn’t stay longer there. Nethertheless, the reception staff was very friendly and check in was very uncomplicated.

This room was dirty. There was poo on the toilet seat. Mould in the bathroom and dust everywhere. We paid for 2 nights and only stayed for 1. We left without telling them, as we were so disappointed in this place.
