              “Seaside stay”

              Located opposite the bay. Easy walk to main street which has numerous dining options. Also close to supermarket. Nice area to walk along the shoreline. Room was clean and tidy and quiet. Plenty of off street parking.

              “Away from the maddening crowds!”

              and yet just two short blocks to the action - cafes, restaurants, shops and entertainment. Clean, comfortable motel adjacent to the beach for an early morning stroll. Repeat stayer, the operators are flexible too!

              Handily located to a morning walk on the beach, a quick stroll to the main shopping centre and some great restaurants and shopping. The owner/operators are so helpful too , which is apprecaited (I arrived at 2 a.m. and all was ready for me). Recommend!
