Water was still warm in April ##### M Stayed 1 night in Apr 2021 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 7 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the location, the owners, the shower and the comfy beds!!! Have previously visited this place for a wedding and came back willingly. My only real downfall is that the wifi (which I paid for) dropped in and out quite frequently. Everything else was great ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 3 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location to beach but note, no seaview from apartment 2\. Leaking near window when it rains hard. Water tasted weird even after boiling. Water didn’t work on 2/4 of the days we were there. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 22 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved how close it was to the beach.

What a spot!! Right next to the beach and ramp. Beautiful white sands and safe family friendly swimming. Some of the best fishing spots in the country on your doorstep. Most hospitable motel hosts ever. Cannot rate them highly enough. One of our best holidays ever and look we forward to a return sometime soon!! ##### Jim Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Soohyun 30 Oct 2025 ##### Soohyun Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen 1 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Barbara 14 Nov 2023 ##### Barbara Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Deane 5 Apr 2023 Liked: Communication Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities ##### Deane Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ---
