We had a great 4 days here. The accommodation had everything we needed and our room was 100 metres from the beach. The only negative was that the lounge chairs (imitation leather) were in very bad condition - the outer layer was peeling off badly - we covered the lounge with a spare blanket which did the trick so we couldn’t see it. Despite the lounge, we would go there again.

For a property of this size in a tourist type area to not have Sky TV is not good enough. Will stop me & my group using the facility again.

Warm welcome from office staff on a very cold day. Quick checkin as bookings through Hotels.com / Expedia and nil card surcharges. Room was well appointed, great size for the two of us and warm as the afternoon sun was streaming in. Bed, lounge suite comfortable, smart TV for signing in, kitchen stocked well for a meal at home. Very happy with our total holiday.

Best motel ever!!
We had a one night family stay, but we could have stayed for much longer!! It is the Best Motel I’ve ever stayed at. It had everything: comfy bed, clean bathroom, nice kitchen, tv and dvd player and free parking. There was also a heated swimming pool as well as a children’s playground and tennis court!! It was a2 minute walk to the beach and 5mins by car to the town centre or a supermarket. We can’t wait to go back!!!

Average Motel in Scenic Area
Please do not be fooled by the title of the place as it is in fact a motel. Everything is quite average of a hotel, despite the fact that after I left, I was covered in bites from head to toe. I went to reception and they tried to blame it in the fact that I probably walked on the sand. Which I in fact, had not. Next they tried to blame it on allergies. All to save themselves a pretty penny. Do yourself a favour and book somewhere else.

Property is well located to town where multiple venues for eating and drinking are available. The additional twin bed was quite uncomfortable. It is an older hotel that does need updating

Great location and comfortable room
The room was everything we needed, easy walking distance to town and waterfront. The lost spring is through a gate at the back of the hotel, super handy after a few cocktails in the pool. Really enjoyed our stay
