"Lovely stay in the Rainforest motel. Andy is a great host who made us feel very welcome.

The property is comfortable, clean and the unit we had was updated and had a great new bathroom / wet room. The whole motel complex has such a relaxed feel about it and we have no doubt recommending it as a great place to...
