A very well located property. Quite dated though. Needed a broom in the room as sand was easily transferred into the rooms and no way of sweeping it up.

This property was really great and matched the pictures in online advertising. Very clean and fresh, very comfortable beds and had everything we needed. Very central for food and shopping and directly across the road to the beach. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

We had a brief one-night stay on our way up the coast. Excellent location in town. Nice to fix morning coffee and walk across the street to stroll the wonderful beach. Front staff mate was excellent (Davie?). Very quiet location and convenient to everything we needed!
