sally, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

An older style cabin but very comfortable and in a great position, near the beach. Easy to walk to the river walk, Pancake Rocks and the Hotel.
Lorraine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The cabin was brilliant. Spacious, clean. Location was 20 second walk to the shore, which had some picnic tables to enjoy the sunset. Highly recommend. Only note... check-in is at a pub/restaurant down the street.
Keith, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great motel. Parking was a little tight but space is limited in this area. Very nice walk along the beach which is literally right out back
Bradford, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location. Very spacious living area. Nice kitchen.
Antonia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was nice and spacious, and the location just steps from the waterfront was nice. Note that the beach begins a few hundred meters further down, at the motel it is just a sea wall.
Janik, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely room with small kitchen (which we did not use). Great location. Small bed for 2 persons, but there was a small single that my wife used. Shower was okay. Short walk to a nice restaurant and bar with a great vibe. A little confusing with address, because you have to check-in at the above mentioned restaurant.
Nicholas, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location by the beach and near Pancake Rocks. Payment and key collection at nearby tarvan. Which wasn't mentioned in the booking.

6/10 Good

Great location

Great location, close to pancake rocks and the beach. The building is dated but clean and functional.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location by the beach. Roomy and clean.
Garth, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall it’s good and location is the draw card. Could have been a bit cleaner in side, dusting etc. Otherwise great. Note a cabin we had at the only pub in town before this accommodation was woeful, dirty, lights not working terrible bed and useless shower so beware, and we paid close to the same price! The pub handle the key collection and booking for the motel.
