Unit was comfortable, quiet and pristine but stainless steel bin in bathroom had rusty lid which rather detracts from the overall impression. Ironing board cover thin and stained and needs replacing

Honeysuckle Executive Apartments
Had everything we needed for comfortable stay. Location is very good for walking to shops and restaurants. It was clean. It was good to have a balcony. Paid parking was handy but there were spaces in carpark nearby on Saturday and Sunday.

NOAH'S On The Beach
Comfortable room with a fantastic view of the beach. Parking underneath is good and we enjoyed eating at the restaurant both nights we were there. We had breakfast at the beach kiosk across the road and watched the surfers while we had our coffee, bliss! We will be back.
