A wonderful hotel, nice and quiet, pool is small but ideal for cooling down. Rooms are basic but spotless, staff are really friendly, an ideal place to stay, a minute walk across the road to the beach. Would definately recommend and would go back again.

8/10 Very good
Jan 24, 2020
The location is excellent with easy access to the creek and golf course and as a birdwatcher this was ideal. . The room and shower was fine and very clean . Breakfast is good with choice .
A bit on the pricey side for the facilities and I would expect a safe in the room for the price plus WI FI is only available at the reception area .
Found the cleaner and front desk staff helpful
