Sun, surf and sunsets – you’ve made it to Scarborough. This waterfront playground is one of Perth’s most popular beachside ’burbs.

Forget hustling for a patch of sandy real estate: Scarborough has space in spades. Swim or surf Scarborough’s impossibly blue waters or join the locals for a round of beach volleyball. Pine-peppered foreshores and picnic shelters make Scarborough a first choice for barbeques on balmy days.

The hotel was extremely outdated and run-down. While they appeared to be going for a retro 50's feel, it was just old and dated.
