5.0

Location was the 1 thing we liked about it.

Bed was too firm for our liking, the seats in the dining/lounge were lacking in padding and were uncomfortable. One side of the couch when you sat on it leaned into the middle. No fan in the bathroom meant that it steamed up too easily. This unit needed to be updated, we felt that the unit was probably the oldest of the lot on this property.

Beautiful setting within native bush/planting away from the Main Street, but still in walking distance to the village and pools. Spacious cottage, warm and cosy. Very friendly staff.

Have booked by chance, enjoyed the stay, would definitely stay again.

9.0

It is a Motel, but provides much more privacy and comfort than usual motels do. The location is very convenient - it is a short walking distance to the pools and, at the same time, out of the busy area giving impression of park/forest setting.
