Great location by the beach we stayed in a family room and it was well set up and much larger than we anticipated. Loved the common areas and inclusion of plates/cutlery etc had a great picnic dinner at the tables outside just wish there were some bins or a bigger bin in the room for the rubbish.

Nice and convenient - right across the road from a lovely beach that was perfect for kids. Crystal clear water and loads of little sea critters to spot in the shallows! Reception was lovely and very helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable.

We stayed here after a wedding. It was just an overnight stay for us, so we didn't get to explore to much but it would be perfect for a longer getaway to explore the Peninsula! Great little renovated motel!
