From the moment we were greeted we felt welcome, the staff are lovely and very professional. This property has been renovated to a very high standard, I don’t think there are many properties that meet this standard. Modern, chilled and luxurious with a pool and surrounds that cannot be beaten. Simply beautiful and worth a visit. We will be back for sure. If you remember this old gem in its past , you must see this glow up !! Absolutely stunning. Many dining options are a short walk away. The natural bay is gorgeous and just a short walk. Drive 5 minutes to Shoal Bay also worth a visit for its crystal clear waters and white sands, dolphins and natural vistas are abundant.

Dated

Staff were friendly and obliging however the hotel is very dated and in desperate need of renovation. All parking in the open and the pool area is in need of a lot of work.

Newly reopened after a major renovation and redesign so very clean and fresh. Staff very welcoming and friendly. Room was excellent with everything brand new. Only let down was the ‘stunning’ pool was not heated, so was too cold for me to enjoy, which was a big disappointment. Would definitely return once the pool is heated.
