Generally great for what we required during our stay - Thank you
We forgot our hand /shower soap so would have like to be able to get some at reception

It was agood location, close to all shops and walking distance to local parks, beach & shops. It’s a small area where they have caravan park as well, it really is a sleep overnight kind of a place, if there were the more upgraded rooms like that of the picture, available with its own bathroom and toilet, I think my bougee gurls, might have loved it better, it was an experience they needed to have hhhhh everything was all booked out, we had to opt for the next best thing on the list, we had a big family we had to book four rooms and each adult had to bunk with a teen, 😁🤦🏽♀️ so, it is what it is, cabin room only, quite small only enough for your bed & the clothes for overnight, shared kitchen we hogged the dining area, for about an hour, it was too cold that night and we really had no space in our rooms for our whole family to play cards, the other shared function/bar/ restaurant area was closed off after6pm , shared bathroom /toilets (separate male/female ofc) and we had pheasants,peacocks, roosters & chickens, roaming around the place so bird poop here and there, again it was ok, you could handle if your lil one’s love it, not my teens ofc. It was ok for a sleepover before heading off again.
All explained above.

the room was big & somehow cozy. and outdoors had heaps of plants & birds. so it was nice to feel close to nature. the place was also huge & not suffocating. pleasant neighbourhood/not noisy,
somehow close to airport, bus stop & local beach.
staff were not that friendly/accommodating & often their office was usually close. they also don’t smile.
and there’s no Wifi in the room. TV reception was not great especially when it’s raining/cloudy.
also, it was a bit far from the actual town centre.
kitchen didn’t have much good ventilation & door was difficult to open. fridge in the kitchen’s also not well-maintained.

Just liked the the atmosphere & tropical surrounds.
The rooms were clean & tidy. The verandas was a great place to sit & enjoy what nature offers.
Greeting the peacocks was very good
Pricing was very good & more than competitive.
No complaints really.
Nothing really to complain about.

Clean and tidy. TV was small, but the fridge was a decent size. Clean toilet and shower etc. Will stay again if we can get the same or cheaper price? Not far from everything either. Short walk to the marina for the boats to go sightseeing etc. A couple of great places to eat there too. Boat club and movies.

The room was nicely decorated yet simple enough to feel homely, the aircon worked well, and the facilities were quite nice. The seclusion was the best part with lovely wildlife friends to see and sit with
There was a little visitor (cockroach) in our room, we weren’t too worried but it did scare my partner.

I Iiked that it had a homey feel about it
when arriving the property first thing I noticed was the benches where covered in dust , the cleaning beams and Also the sheets smelt dusty . Iam highly allergic to dust through out the nights of my stays I was sneezing uncontrollably. when I woke up I had to immediately get dressed and leave because my allergies where that bad inside . As soon as I left I was fine . was really really upset about that

my highlight was sitting outside with the peacocks,they are so stunning

it had 2 beds
Staff shortages, no one at reception, bar and bistro was closed. After checkout time we were advised cannot use any facilities on site after 10am as you need a key to access the kitchen, lounge and even toilets! we didn't even bother to try and see the rest of the things on site after that! The key to the room is the same key that accesses the facilities which means
all the room keys are the same? Was no one at reception both days we were there to explain anything so no ideas! Also be aware I saw about 5 peacocks and they will wake you up extremely early.

I've stayed before, upgraded myself to verandah room with own bathroom absolutely perfect, very comfortable. Love the atmosphere of this place, a little oasis and perfect to unwind after long drive
Wasn't anything not to like
