Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We noticed a lot of mould on the curtains and an awful amount of condensation on the windows in the morning. Indicating not great ventilation. The spa was also cold even when the key was given to us to use the spa when we requested it.

Stunning location but rooms not as clean as hoped
Very nice surroundings and loved the look of the restaurant although sadly we missed dinner due to delayed InterIslander ferry. Breakfast was not available unless you pre-book the chef, I guess that’s a winter thing. Room was okay but a bit dirty around the edges, back of sofa cushions etc. Friendly staff. Location is really wonderful.
The Motel rooms were very full. This made parking difficult because there are no lines in the lot. Other than that… the room was super! It was a studio with a queen and a single bed. Kitchen had kettle and toaster with fridge and microwave. TV had basic channels but we were ok with that.
We thought the room was modern and clean. the bed was cosy. For us to relax after a big day traveling, it was perfect. The property offers dining as well.

Liked: Staff & service
Booked a pet friendly studio through Wotif (There we other studios available but they clearly stated not pet friendly), so you can imagine our surprise to being told that there was an extra $20 charge for our dog!
Food from restaurant was very nice and the bed was super comfortable. However the unit was very dated, not very clean, the curtains were falling off the rails, amongst other things.
