Guest Reviews
- Vanessa (8/5): -
- Allan (8/5): Really enjoyed our stay. We will be back. - Close to town. Food in restaurant was really good.
- Victoria (8/5): Would stay again - Location and facilities around the Inn That our staff were asked to pay a $200 deposit on arrival and that the money was actually debited from their account and at no stage during communication with the Inn, was a deposit ever discussed.
- Jamie Marie (10/5): Very comfortable stay and loved how centralised it is for location. A walking distance from the beach, cafes, restaurant - It’s super centralised so a great walking distance from everything.
- Shannon (8/5): Good place for a quick overnight stay. - Rooms were clean and staff helpful They do not let you know prior to your stay that they require a $200 deposit per room and that you only get wifi if you book directly with them.
- Jennifer (7/5): -
- Joan (9/5): - Everything you want and more, close to everything.
- janey (10/5): Very nice place and great staff and food was excellent 👌 - Staff were very friendly and helpful 😀

- Dylan (10/5): Amazing stay! The romantic setup was perfect and really made our trip special. Everything was clean, comfortable, and ex - We had such an amazing stay here and couldn’t recommend it more highly. The team went above and beyond to organise a romantic setup for us, and it honestly exceeded all expectations. Every detail was perfect and it made our stay feel really special.
The place itself was beautiful, clean, and super comfortable, and the extra effort they put in truly didn’t go unnoticed. It made a big difference to our experience and we really appreciated it.
We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with exceptional service.
- Bradley John (10/5): -
- Erin (7/5): Pleasant but there were a couple of frustrating aspects to the kichenette - Location & fact 2 areas (upstairs & downstairs) so I could have privacy from my son.
We enjoyed being able to way on the balcony The kitchen needs better facilities.
The detergent was of poor quality & I couldn’t adequately clean the pan so went & bought my own.
There needs to be a drying rack. I washed dishes & it was impossible to dry them easily.
There needs to be a baking dish. While there was an oven it was unusable without a baking dish. The one piece of foil was only useful for 1 day but we stayed 4 nights.

- Andre (9/5): Good value for money and a perfectly central base from which to explore the South West. - Excellent location. Close enough to the jetty. Close to the Kmart shopping centre - Origins Markets was a great find.
The unit is compact yet sufficient space and facilities. The pool facing balcony was a nice little bonus. The bed was very comfortable and felt like luxury. Kitchenette is small but sufficient. Honestly. Nothing there to not like.

- Julia (8/5): - Schönes großes Apartment über zwei Stockwerke mit Küche, Waschmaschine, Balkon.
Wir hatten zuerst ein Apartment direkt am Parkplatz, konnten aber freundlicherweise noch in ein Apartment am Pool wechseln. Empfehle unbedingt, ein Apartment am Pool zu buchen! Apartments am Parkplatz sind sehr hellhörig, es ist sehr laut. Die Leute laufen teilweise direkt vor den Fenstern vorbei und ständig fahren Autos hin und her. Auf dem Balkon wollten wir da auch nicht sitzen. Dafür ist der Preis recht hoch.
Zu wenig Platz, um Wäsche aufzuhängen.
Badezimmer sehr klein.

- Diane (8/5): -
- Alison (9/5): Highly recommended. - Convenient to the town site and jetty All good except the bathroom fan in Unit 11 did not work.
- LIZ (9/5): Comfortable Accommodation - This townhouse accommodation was above what we expected. The kitchen had all cooking appliances, crockery and cutlery that one needs if you were cooking, which we were. The laundry had both washing machine and dryer, drying racks for drying clothes outside on the balcony. Upstairs bedroom was large with a comfortable bed and a balcony one can sit and enjoy a morning cuppa or a sundowner drink. Bathroom was small, however, had everything we needed, and the shower was roomy. Location is excellent with a short walk to the main shopping area for supplies, or a 20 minute walk to the foreshore.
- Rita (8/5): - Close to Busselton centre, parking outside apartments
- edwin (8/5): It’s functional - It’s an upstairs/downstairs arrangement, kitchen and settee down with bed, bathroom and balcony up top. So no noise from above/below from others Floorboards creaky. One black teabag. Spiders and webs on ceiling and behind curtains. Bathroom tiny.
- Kirsty (10/5): We had a fantastic time, easy check in, great rooms, good facilities and brilliant location and very friendly staff - The location, the quality of the rooms, the swimming pool and the Bistro N/A
- Melissa (10/5): Great self contained apartment with walking distance to the heart of Busselton - Location and pool Nil
- Jason (10/5): -
- Marina (8/5): Overall, our stay was comfortable, and the location ended up being very convenient. - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Nightcap Ship Inn. The accommodation was comfortable, exactly as described, and very centrally located. It was within walking distance to the city center and just a 20-minute walk to the foreshore and Busselton Jetty. We also appreciated the daily service, with a cleaning lady regularly changing out towels and taking out the rubbish. We initially noticed that the shower needed a clean due to some moldy grout. We were also a bit concerned about the location, especially with Dan Murphy's shop being right in the middle of the inn, which is quite busy.
However, after the first night, we realized it wasn’t an issue at all. We always found a parking spot easily and never experienced any noise coming from the shop.
- Jamie (10/5): - Comfortable bed and the location was central Nothing
- Phillip (4/5): - The room was right on the road
To much traffic to much noise
- Sean (10/5): - Lots of room
- Narelle (10/5): -
- Babak (8/5): - With this price, breakfast could be included. No gym The second floor was noisy and needed to be checked.
- Rodney (10/5): Great Location - Great location very central to shopping and restaurants.
- Darren (8/5): -
- Janine (9/5): - Location, heating and comfort. Loved having a kitchenette too The number of stairs and how narrow they were in places. Getting cases up the stairs was extremely challenging. We are 70+ so very difficult
- April (10/5): - Great location
- Themelina (10/5): - A great place to stay. Very convenient. Staff were absolutely LOVELY. Complimentary drink was lovely!
Will definitely stay here again.
Thank you!
- Harish (10/5): -
- Elizabeth (8/5): Very nice apartment in good location. - Lovely swimming pool. Good facilities with a bar and restaurant. In very good location. Comfortable bed with a nice balcony. Cleaners a bit noisy early morning. Lots of flies everywhere but particularly on the beach.
- munro (4/5): - Location Only one hotplate worked in the room. Bathroom was very small.
- Fernanda (9/5): - Check in lady very rude
- Marie (6/5): - Central location. Easy parking
Rooms clean and welĺ appointed
Kitchenware and linens good quality
King size bed very comfortable
Although centrally located it wasn't noisy Triple room booked but only two dining and balcony chairs supplied and fridge items catering for two
When we phoned to ask for extra chairs the staff on reception , Stephanie, was extremely rude and said the rooms were only furnished for two even though bkd as a triple. When I said that was ridiculous that one person is supposed to stand up at the dining table she said that they could sit on the couch ! She wasn't going to budge in her attitude until I asked to speak to the manager who she said was in a meeting. I asked for her to call me.
A few mins later she arrived with the chairs, no apology and rudely said You have got them now
She needs a course in customer relations or a new job.
The other staff were lovely and very embarrassed by her attitude
The next day our electricity was out so we were moved to a poolside unit and given a complementary dinner for our inconvenience. Sylvia, a young Spanish staff, organised everything and she was delightful and looked after us very professionally .
The new fold down couch in the poolside apt very uncomfortable with ridges. Had to put the extra pillows on the base. The staff was made aware of it.
The ones they were replacing were super comfortable but rather difficult to unfold and bulky hence the replacements
Bathroom was very small
Roomy bedroom and wardrobes, super comfortable king size bed
Otherwise we were quite satisfied with our stay .
- Greg (8/5): -
- Tim (6/5): Great for the able bodied - Well located, very friendly staff, and good facilities. Didn't see any mention that there were stairs to the bedroom and bathroom.
Having bad knees, I found this a painful part of my stay. It would be impossible for someone with a disability to stay here.
- Michelle (10/5): lovely. - All were good, we enjoyed our stay greatly. Nothing, excellent break away.
- Matt (10/5): -
- Michelle (7/5): Lovely - Great location Cleaning & no fly screens. We had to use Mortein bug bombs. Lots of mozzies and ear wigs when we arrived. But overall we had a good time we love staying here as it’s walking distance to everything.
- Andrea (8/5): -
