Great location to the airport and the beach. The breakfast was welcome after eating junk for days it was nice to have soem ceral and fruit. Love that beach towels were also provided.
We loved our stay and will stay here again.
Room was clean and tidy. No staff it is a self check in/check out. The welcome basket is excellent with some brekky stuff as well as other drinks and treats. Close to the beach and only a 10 minute walk to the airport.
A great motel close to the airport. There's plenty of street parking and also a short walk to the beach. I love the retro feel of the place. Would definitely stay again.
Excellent option in Coolangata. Clean and awesome staff. Located 1.5kms away (approximate) walking diatance to great cafes, restaurants and ahopping centre, including Woolworths. The beach is one mimute walk from the hotel.
Definitely re ommended for short and long stays. We will come back in December.
Amazing little retro chic motel, stylish and modern furnishings, a lot of love has gone I to this place.
Amazing included breakfast as well!
A pleasure to stay at La Costa!
