Check in was brilliant - opposite ferry and next to IGA so we got groceries and then they delivered us to apartment. Apartment as per photos in fact I think it was a bit better than photos - older place but all we needed. Sitting out front watching world go by - right on road but not overly busy and beach just over the road. 850 metres to pub and or bus stop just opposite. We had lovely 4 nights there.
