They did not return our $100 deposit and the place was clean - linen was ready to be collected , rubbish was put in the bins, floors were sweeped, beds were made, counter tops were wiped down. Waited till 08:36 to hand back keys, no one was at reception as sign said they would be there at 08:30. Over all nice place bad staff.

Cute Villa with a bit of a 50's beach vibe
The gardens around the villas are really lovely. We stayed in Villa 9 and it was really comfortable and perfect for our 2 night stay. The location of the Villa was quiet with it's own entry and we didn't need to use the fan or AC as it was cool enough inside. We were well looked after and would be more than happy to stay there again :)

Stayed there a few years ago. The property has deteriorated in this time. Poorly thought out layout and more detailed maintenance needed.

Hi Michael, Sorry to hear you feel this way. If you do come again please ask for one of the recently renovated villas. We do try to get them done throughout the year, however getting trades has become a big problem for us. The layout hasn't changed from a few years ago.

Loved staying here on our way through to Brisbane. Really friendly staff - Susan was particularly helpful with our late check in. Fantastic location a block back from the Esplanade, plenty of cafes and restaurants near by. Room was really peaceful and felt private even though it is so central to the main strip. Look forward to staying here on our return trip!!

No room available, did not have my booking in their system, even though already paid. Put me in the residence room for the first night. Had room for second night. Old & needs a fresher up. Shower was useless more water from the kitchen sink.

Wonderful stay
Lee n Brandon were very nice host n full of knowledge bout the area. Lee upgraded us to two bedroom villa. That was very kind. The parking was right behind our villa which is very convenience. Location wise is excellent too. Right next to the main area. 2 mins walking to beach front.

Nice little villas ... loved the bright colours. Only thing I could suggest is maybe looking at updating the single bed mattresses. The one I slept on was awful.

Great base for Mon Repo and the Bundaberg region.
Just one street from the beach yet out of the rat race. The villa was very comfortable and well appointed. I was here for work on this occasion but intend to return with the family.

We stayed overnight and I had the best sleep! I felt like it was my own home away from home. Would highly recommend this hotel to all my beautiful friends, because it was cosy, comfortable and there was a sense of ambience and calm, making our stay very restful. The swimming pool was awesome and this hotel provided everything my family needed. Will definitely be rebooking with them again, could not fault anything. Most enjoyable time and close to all the shops, with a beautiful restaurant that the food was to die for!
