Good stay but needs a revamp.
Love the location of this hotel, it’s comfortable to be in and had all the amenities you need in a hotel. What brings it down is multiple little things in the hotel that just seem dated and unclean. For starters, most walls had either a minor stain, mark, poor painting job or rough job on them somewhere (cannot supply photos as I’m writing this after the stay, apologies). The bathroom fine, but small things such as missing metal holes where the clips are supposed to be for the shower curtain and the tap pressure being way too sensitive and high pressure just make it seem slightly run down. The fly wire back door lock also didn’t work properly, which posed a safety risk. Lastly, and probably in need of the most change, is the kitchen. The stove makes random clicking noises when turned on which gave us a slight scare, the draws were very rough to pull in and out as there are no rollers for them to slide in and out smoothly of, and inside the draws were white sheets to cover up the wooden frame of where you put the kitchen stationary, and even then it seemed very dirty inside of them. It was nice to stay here, but we most likely won’t be returning here.

The location is great. The kitchen and bathroom could do with some updating. The bed was very very firm and uncomfortable.

Not too bad
Basic stay but very comfortable. We stayed as a group and we had lovely time together having a barbecue and enjoyed the pool. The accommodation had everything but no fan or air-conditioning in the bedroom. As it was not very hot it was alright. On hot days it will be uncomfortable

Service was friendly, apartment was great & good location. We did find hair in the bath filter which had a tooth brush attached when we lifted filter out, the only reason we found it was we had to lift bath filter out to fit the plug.

Nice hotel a little out of town centre
Would definitely stay here again. It's a motel so don't stay here if you're looking for 5 star and room service. We had a two bedroom self contained apartment. It was huge. Was a nice modern feel. The kitchen dining and lounge area were of a great size. The kitchen had everything needed to cook a decent meal. We could park right in front of our door making life super easy

Very very basic facilities
We were not very happy with the facilties of the place. Very dated and the living room was very tiny for a 3 bedroom appartment. The stove took forever to heat up (electric stove top) and we decided not to cook there after that experience. The owners are very friendly and nice and we only wish the facilities were better. Its about 5 minutes walk to the beach.

Good position. Facilities need some love.
Handy spot just off main strip. 3 bedroom apartment for 4 adults utilising all rooms. 2 main rooms fine. 3 rd adult ended up sleeping on the lounge as the beds, all 3 in that room, where unable to be slept on. The mattresses are foam that have long since given up the ghost. Even placing 2 mattresses together was unsuccessful. Cleanliness also needed to be addressed as the toilet had the prior persons deposits left behind despite having a nice strip of paper attached to the lid saying it had been cleaned. Crockery dirty and oven full of crumbs and grease. Walls full of dirty hand prints and cobwebs about. The place needs some love. Dissapointed.

Convenient but ordinary
The staff were friendly, the site was convenient to town but the oven would not close and the internet would not connect for us making for a less than satisfying visit.
