The plain appearance of the Shoredrive Motel hides a recently renovated, spacious and comfortable motel, located along The Strand which is immediately on the waterfront, but at the far end away from the busiest part, meaning its quiet. Our family room comfortably fit 3 adults with a queen and two single beds. If you need to cook then perhaps look... More

My mother daughter and I stayed for two nights in a wonderful room. We had a queen bed and a single which was perfect for us. The hosts were simply lovely, very informative and we received a very warm and friendly welcome. It was close to two decently priced restaurants and within walking distance to the busier section of the... More

We stayed for one night last night. The rooms were quite tasteful and look like they have been recently renovated. Bathroom was modern and very clean. The bed was slightly hard but still comfortable. The location is right on the beach but it is quite a considerable walk up to places to eat. Rooms were a little noisy but nothing... More

We stayed one night in an old ish room, but was ok for that price. The lady at the reception was lovely, the motel is located on the Strand right near the rock pool. The stay was pleasant and relaxing, I would definitely go back there.

Do not choose this room though IF you want to sleep in as the very early morning activities will have you awake very early. The room is fabulous and a balcony to sit and watch the world go by. The room is at the top of stairs so if not able to navigate stairs not suitable to you. Air conditioner... More

Location is lovely, and it was very quiet, bed was very comfortable and linen was impeccable, however the room is tired and in need of TLC. The 'knob' for the fan switch was missing and required a great deal of twisting of the small 'stick' that stuck out to turn the fan on. The cold water tap was also just... More

We were really happy with the quality of the room and service. Unrefurbished room, but fresh and tidy and beds had new linen so the room looked good. Linen etc were good quality. They are in the process of bringing the place up and doing a good job. The location is fantastic on the Stand and a really reasonable price.... More

We booked to stay here for the V8s weekend, then after reading all of the horrible and negative comments on this site I was unsure and nervous about the place we had just agreed to stay at. I called the owners and asked for an honest and not bias opinion because we were paying a lot of money to stay... More
