- ALAN (8/5): Friendly vibe in good location - We visited in April 2026. Our receptionist was extremely friendly and helpful and even allowed us to check in early and had already cooled the room . Room was a good size , clean and well maintained ,air con worked a treat and plenty of hot water. The surrounding outdoor areas were clean and neat. Good swimmimg pool with afternoon sun and only a short walk to Little Beach and the RSL club The mattress in our room wasn't terrible but not super comfortable either. Not sure how old it was but might be time to consider a replacement

- Erin (6/5): Overall, friendly staff but disappointing due to cleanliness issues and the unusable spa. - Staff were great and very helpful. My spa didn’t have a plug, which I only realised at around 8pm when I wanted to have a bath. I called the after-hours service, and someone promptly brought me three plugs, which I really appreciated. The bathroom was a bit dirty and the cleaning lacked attention to detail. The spa jets were full of grime, so I wasn’t able to use the spa at all. This was the main reason we booked this place and something I was really looking forward to, so it was quite disappointing.
