We stayed in the shack, if you want a shiny, modern apartment dont stay here. If you want a stunning location with ourstanding views and dont mind basic accomodation this is the place for you. Comfy bed and lovely bedding, clean and tidy. We loved it and wished we had stayed longer. They even sell their own hiney at reception
Quiet and comfortable. Everything we needed was there and there was plenty of room. Clothes line was a pleasant change. Were only there overnight.

Lovely location and cottage
This is a great location! The cottage had everything we needed. There was a deck looking out to the water. The wifi was a bit spotty but the view made up for it
Great little holiday cottage with everything required for a comfortable stay. Self contained cottage with great privacy and all amenities, if a little old. We were very comfortable and loved the view of the "blowhole" from the bedroom window.
A great central place close to the shops and water. The 3-bedroom apartment was just what we needed for our large family as we toured the area for 3 days
Standalone fully equipped units. Plenty of room. Walkable distance for dinner.

Quaint little cabin, very close to the beach. We were able to experience penguins right at the lobster house - 5 minute walk. It was rustic but all freshly painted and clean. Bed was comfortable

Everything about the place was fantastic a great cabin with everything we needed. For me, pillows and bed were slightly too soft for my liking but still a good night sleep. Great location and close to everything. We'll definitely be back!

The bin in the bathroom hadn’t been emptied from previous guests.
The wall light over the bed didn’t have a cover over the globe.
Faulty power point beside the bed.
Generally rundown and in need of repairs

Thank you Karen for taking the time to leave some feedback. We will be sure to pass the information along to the staff.
We were warmly greeted and advised of the amenities. It was only overnight but I would highly recommend this for a longer stay. It’s very family friendly, kids would love it here too.

Awesome accommodation in a wonderful little town
A fantastic place to stay- clean, comfy and right near the water. The Penguin Tour leaves from just down the road, everything is within walking distance. Would definitely stay at this property again, thank you for a wonderful stay.

Wow thank you Sandra for your kind words. It is so nice to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope the remainder of your holiday was memerable.
Basic cabins, fortunately equipped with electric blankets, reverse cycle air-con, and a wall heater in the bathroom. Life-savers, this area very cold in June. Do the Penguin Tour if you are capable, rug up well, it's worth it!
