The Managers were just great; the room good for the cost; ladies need a long mirror; car park lacks lighting, making movement in the dark a bit tricky, especially for older folk.

Being named Jacaranda, it reflects the preponderance of Jacaranda trees throughout the area, and reminds us they are under valued.

We think the Jacaranda Trees are beautiful too. Nature at its best. Pity they weren't in flower all year round.

Aircon wasnt really working uncomfortable sleep for all inckuding kids
Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020
Response from Owner on 9 Jan 2020
Anonymous In response to your comments re aircon - when you left your room and left the aircon switched on - my husband noted that the aircon mode was on HEAT. We switch the aircons on mid afternoon for all our incoming guests to ensure the rooms are cool - you have obviously accidentally changed the mode from cool to heat when you trying to amend the settings. It is a good idea to report a problem if there is one to reception so that it can be rectified or you can be moved to another room if necessary.
