don't miss this one!
Nice spacious room with beautiful view of the sea. No kitchen but there was a small microwave. The bathroom was clean and had a big bathtub. Close drive to nearby cafe. Also a restaurant downstairs which we did not go to. If you like fishing, this is the place you should NOT miss. On the wharf deck it's a brilliant place for fishing and I caught three huge ones in 30min.

Eccentric charm
Very old-fashioned motel-style property - no changes to decor for at least 30 years. Our room was huge with a balcony on two sides - views were fabulous. Bathroom was also enormous with a corner whirlpool bath. Worth booking one of these corner rooms (207 or 307) if staying more than one night. No lift to upper floors. Free guest laundry

A little gem!
This is a great little place, the lady on check in was extremely helpful and efficient. The room was perfect for us and the view was to die for!
The view from our patio, there is a path that leads right down to the white sandy beach!!!

Surprised
Great surprise, a spa and great views over the water. Spacious with the quaint feeling of the 1960's.

The views were spectacular from the room and although older the room was very clean and the property well maintained. Only issue would be the little heater struggled to warm the room.
