The place is really good, good location and facility.
Nice spa bath and shower.
Staff friendly.
They lost Foxtrot Unicorn bar as an amenity, but it's down the road, it's a great bar though, highly recommend.
Pretty frustrating with the parking though, they really should own up and say they don't have parking, at least then you can plan ahead rather then the ”oh yes first come best dressed” and when we turn up to park it was a 5 minute conversation on a terrible intercom, when all they needed to say is ”there is no parking available”
The good: Nice design. Relatively new. Location is great, and the view from the room was very nice, overlooking the water. The bad: Whilst we appreciated the ”welcome” we received in the room, whereby ALL the blinds were raised automatically when entering the room, this feature could not be turned off, and so when I returned to the room at night after my family had gone to sleep, all the blinds raised, disturbing everyone. I requested this feature be removed, but the only option was to disable the blinds completely. On the subject of blinds, the material used did not provide privacy from the street, so blockout blinds needed to be lowered as well. The controls to the blinds were sketchy... sometimes raising or sometimes lowering regardless of which button was pressed. It was an effort to get them to close! The key to the room did not work on the second day, and I had to stand in line for 20 mins, after which I was issued with a new key, which did not operate the lift, and so I had to return again to get this fixed. We ordered dinner in the room as the restaurant was closed. The quinoa was basically a very small sprinkle of quinoa... hardly a meal, or even a snack. The seafood pasta was served with 4 tiny prawns and 4 small scallops only. No crab or fish, as advertised. It was also extremely small, and drowned in butter. The lamb shank was okay, but nothing to write home about. The room was dusty in places. The paint was bubbling on the ceiling in places. The breakfast buffet was reasonable, however there was a swarm of small flies near the fruit. The coffee was awful, though my daughter raved about the chai latte. For a hotel of this (supposed) standard, and price, the breakfast was sub-par. There was also a guest pacing around whilst using his phone, hardly appropriate, and went unnoticed by the staff. All in all, I couldn't recommend this hotel to anyone for the price, around $800 per night. They also wanted an additional $125 per night for a rollaway, however we took our own blow up mattress and sleeping bag for our daughter instead.
Location was a tad far, although it is to be expected since you are staying near the coast. Room was perfect and had everything you need for a stay. Stayed a total of 3 night here and it was perfect.
Beautiful motel & location. Spacious rooms that are very clean & the check in staff are fantastic. It’s close to the beach & shopping centres & there are multiple restaurants below the motel. We are staying mid week so it may be noisier on weekends but at the moment it’s very quiet & pleasant, we will definitely come back here.
