We appreciated the easy check in and the room had was lovely. It felt like it had been recently renovated so everything was clean and modern. Comfy big bed, free parking and walkable to town. As far as motels go this was a pretty good one.

2nd time staying here and, once again, had a fabulous stay. Conveniently located very close to the town centre and directly across the road from the beach. Such a stunning location. Very clean, large rooms with all the amenities you need. Would highly recommend.

Stayed in unit 10 which was very clean, well equipped and large with separate bedroom at the front right opposite the beach. Ideally located in a quieter part of the Esplanade but only one minute to walk to a good restaurant (Hiku) and an excellent breakfast at Dolphin Encounter cafe.
