Comfy practical easy abide for few nights stay
Perfect for short term visit seeing family. My sister and I visited from Sydney and overall suited our needs. Few minor pain points:
1) bathroom fixtures loose and unable to hang towel/flannel for fear of breakage (towela draped everwhere)
2) one mirror higly impractical for 2 guests and only in bathroom
3) TV unworkable and ended up not using as limit of 2 'working' channels
4) No normal oven - glass oven in pantry filthy and unable to be used by us as both coeliacs and risk of gluten contamination.
Minor issues that did not impact stay for 2 women but other family members/entourage would find problematic.
Regardless of above, overall very happy with our accommodation 'find' for next time. Thank you :)

Good for short stays
The overall unit was clean and neat. Very beautiful place. We got upgraded to the dolphin suite and it was very nice having the whole top floor. Spa bath was very nice and super deep/spacious. It had a very basic kitchenette which was more than fine for our 2 night stay. Woolworths/shopping centre located less than a 5 minute drive away, super convenient!

Utilities
It was very nice, thank you. The only thing that I thought could be better is that the coffee plunger is falling apart and was frustrating trying to make coffee and that the TV in bedroom control were not working, possibly flat battery, could not switch the tv on, the rest was perfect and I will come back for sure,
Thank you for the biscuits
