Overall okay and clean on our arriving/first reception was fantastic, she could'nt help enough. Our exist/leaving reception wasn't perlite at all whilst thinking people are silly with how the world works in receiving our own bond money back as an eftpos transaction in the 21st century, really, 5 days for a 24hr transaction.

We had the 2 bedroom apartment as it was the only way we could upgrade to have a queen bed. The amenities were satisfactory but it has no air-conditioning in the bedrooms - only in the lounge room. The blankets were heavy. Strangely, of the many accommodation we have stayed in for this holiday, this motel was the only one that has small TV with tinny sound quality. The apartment was situated close to the road and was noisy from 6am onwards.

Peaceful setting with beautiful views. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff were excellent. Very friendly and efficient. Overall good value for money. My only criticism would be the lack of blinds on the upper windows as the outside light came in this made it difficult to get to sleep. Also thicker, fluffier towels would be good.

Beautiful outlook with lovely grounds. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are very basic, but as described. There was hair on the sheets and pillow which the staff dismissed as their cleaning staff shedding hair while servicing the room.
