We had Room 3 which was upstairs (no lift) and had a garden view. Comfortable bed and plenty of room for luggage. Own air conditioner, small fridge and bathrobes. We had dinner in the dining room which was bistro style ie order at the desk. The hotel fronts onto the beach. It was scenic walking along the sand, viewing across the ocean towards Eden.

We stayed in an elevated, two-bedroom villa, which was very comfortable and nicely appointed. We all enjoyed a very relaxing night's sleep, and breakfast on the balcony with the sound of waves crashing was delightful. Parking was located beneath the cabin, accessible via outside stairs. There wasn't much of a view, except for the cabin in front, but the location was just a short stroll to the beach. Note that when on the beach, every so often, a wave would come in much further than the others, so be careful with young children and any belongings you place on the sand. We received a very warm welcome upon checking in. We only stayed one night, so we didn't try the on-site restaurant, choosing instead to eat in Eden. A must-do is the Eden Killer Whale museum - highly recommended.

Appreciate the Pet-friendly policy but the furniture just way too big for the small space. Out of proportion. The shower is so small that I couldn’t turn around in the shower.

This property was amazing! So tranquil and relaxing. The only complaint I have is no one was there to check us in for a late arrival. After a long drive we had to call the number posted on the door and wait for someone to drive to us and let us in. But the property made up for it! I would definitely stay again.
