Huge apartment (we had the 3 bedroom) and run by a lovely couple who were very friendly. Really clean and great amenities. Very close to the beach and the lookout as well as the shops and restaurants.

Great location by the beach. Dissapointing our view was ruined by scaffolding at the balcony and having the painter on our balcony while we were having lunch. Was also disappointed there wasn't a BBQ which was advertised to be there when we booked.

Great location but an older apartment complex. We had several rooms booked in our group and 2 of them were great. Unfortunately the other one had a musky damp smell - this room Definitely needs an update

Well managed apartments in great location.
Stayed here for 10 nights, very good location close to town and beach. The apartments were well managed by Lynette and Andrew who were very helpful and endeavour to please all guests young and old for an enjoyable stay, which must be very difficult. Very spacious apartments we stayed at number 6, the only fault being vented doors to bedrooms and bathroom which are fitted to support the function of the air conditioning. The provision of the vented doors allows all noise to be heard throughout the apartment. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location! Steps away from 4-mile beach and close enough to main street to easily walk to any store/restaurant but not so close to be bothered by other tourist. Property managers are awesome! Very nice and friendly. Had lots of information about local attractions. Would definitely stay here again.
