    Having to leave so soon

    The very close proximity to a number of beautiful beaches & bays & restaurants, the spacious surrounds, the beautiful landscaped lawns (all with a view to die for) loved the accommodations, tasteful furnishings, comfortable and inviting.

    The restaurant access was hard to find in the dark, not a lot of lighting on the street. The cafe wasn’t opened for dinner however we didn’t know till I wanted to go for dinner to find it was closed.

    The view was picturesque, it was a brilliant location. Convenient to local groceries store and shopping centre.

    There was nothing to dislike

    Prior to arrival, I received updates and confirmation of my booking. They offered to help in any way should I need it, and were very welcoming when I arrived. The room was perfect, and the view was amazing.

    Perfect location for a weekend away. Great size room and comfortable bed. Kitchen and fridge, so you could eat in the property.

    It would have been nice to have towels and linen changed at least once in the week. Ran out of toilet paper because the room wasn't serviced & had to get some from the other room we had for family. Their room was serviced while we were there, so not sure why ours was missed.

    The location is incredible with multiple beaches right on the doorstep. Loved the kitchenette facilities. Loved additional facilities like the communal BBQ, pool & laundry. Room size was fantastic. Beds were reasonably comfortable (I have back problems, so I'm picky about bed comfort). Easy parking right at the room door.

    The stairs to the first floor might not be suitable for some people but otherwise its a very nice property.

    A spacious room with a balcony view across the water was really appreciated. A great location near the beach.

    On the first night, we were greeted by grumpy old woman who just said grab thd key and go to the room. Very different attitude from a different staff at the end of our stay. The other staff were friendly. Just a very old woman with a bandaid was not very welcoming

    Would be even better if there was a concessionary renting kayaks or SUPs on the property or nearby.

    Fantastic location between 2 beautiful beaches, windy and sheltered side. Wonderful sunset views. George the pheasant and several cassowaries add color. Comfy rooms, beds bathrooms and verandas. Helpful staff, Very nicely kept gardens.
