Lovely, simple, clean rooms with a gorgeous outlook to the pools. Our four year old would have stayed in the awesome pool area our entire trip if allowed! Easy walk across the road to beautiful pathways on the waterfront, and to a family friendly bar/pizza place. Very quick drive to the centre of town.

Spacious, comfortable very well appointed unit. Very comfortable bed. Swimming pool looked very inviting. Will bring my togs next time. Free for all parking was a downer as we had to stumble in the dark from the roadside to our unit. Not good for an elderly couple.
