"Book in advance you get really good deal for this place, beautiful place to stay."

Waves Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent incl the spa which was amazing, however it would be nice if there was an oven to cook own meals. The kitchen has no canopy so cooking is a mission. Best if you takeout food for the stay. Otherwise an excellent place to stay!will be back again in family suite. Highly recommended!"
