Mature couple

Proprietors Allan and Perri were very friendly and helpful. Situated close to beach. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable bed but room was a bit small.

Very Friendly and Clean!

I found the owners very welcoming and friendly. They offered a drink on arrival and took the time to talk to you, offering suggestions of activities that you might find interesting. The room was quite large, light and airy. The weather was fantastic, very hot, which unfortunately caused sleeping at night to be rather uncomfortable. The availability of a fan would have been very welcome. The shower was modern and worked well. I found the bed a little hard, but then I always struggle in a strange bed. The breakfast was well cooked and there was a good choice available. The proximity to the beach was great. We were only there a few days but overall we really enjoyed our stay and would certainly go again.

Quality and professional

A 4 star hotel ,really nice people,rooms and food 1st class.I found it really hard to write those qualities as its popularity will be to my loss because i will find it hard to get a room again due to their high demand.(joking).Thank you for a nice stay.

Great hotel for a family

Stayed for 2 nights with our 2 grandaughters in the family room. Excellent welcome and such friendly owners throughout our short time at the Wentworth. Only slight problem was the heat as the family room is right at the top of the house but Allan quickly found us a fan when we asked! Such a good position for the park and beach.
