A peaceful pad in Tin Can Bay

A fantastic place to rest and celebrate the holidays. It looks like they’ve renovated the rooms recently and clearly kept their guests in mind. The room was spacious and comfortable and the added bonus of being pet friendly!!

We were a bit put off on arrival at 1.50 to be told our room wasn't ready until 2pm even after I had rang them and asked politly if we could have possible slightly early entry, bit rude.

Loved the peace and quiet, although some people would say not being on the 'main drag' or right in centre of town would be a problem. Newly refurbished premises were lovely, just a few more small things to do. Sraff were friendly and helpful. Will be recommending this motel to our friends.

Exceeded all expectation.

Everything about the motel was great. Only negative thing about our stay was that the town had no open restaurants or stores after 9pm on a Sunday.

Service was great. The pool was well maintained. The room was clean and well set out for 5 people. The electrics in the room seemed to have a mind of their own turning off randomly and only working when sporadically
