After driving for 8 hours we eventually got to our hotel T 830 pm . The room was beautiful and spacious but no towels . When I called the onsite manager she personally delivered and we were very grateful for her prompt assistance and cannot fault the staff and service . It was relaxing and serene listening to the waves all night and I was super excited when I woke on the morning and saw the beautiful view.

We recently stayed at Classic Twin room for one night. The motel was still under renovation, so wifi was not available at the time of our stay which was not a problem to us. The newly renovated room was very spacious and cosy and we loved it. The only issue we encountered was we felt the bed and pillows were not in good condition. Loretta Lau

The room was excellent, service was accomadating and pleasant. realise there is some things that need to fix but all is in hand as I understand ( wifi and restaurant) I would have liked a bitmore water pressure for the show ( Room 10) all the complaints are minor and a easy fix. Location is superb. will go there again in 5 months
