Top Kensington Hotel Reviews

Only 40 metres to the beach!

10/10 Excellent

"Had a lovely stay here with my fur baby. The house was immaculately clean and well presented. The covered deck was really great and I spent most of the time I was there sitting out there. The beach is just a very short walk thru the reserve and is absolutely stunning. We had some good swims and walks. The facilities in the house were good. Lounge is very comfy and welcoming. Lots of outdoor furniture to while away the time on. Thanks very much Carrie. "
