This was a fantastic place to stay a short walk to the beach, Hotel and grocery store a few metres away. It was very clean and the staff were very accommodating.

Stayed In the winter season. Was a solo traveller and felt very well looked after by the extremely friendly staff. Room was clean and cosy. Great location near the bay of islands. Would definitely go back if in the area again.

The people running the... More

The kitchen is really well equipped and there is a large communal lounge stocked with books a TV, DVDs and a... More

Kitchen and lounge is nice (I thought it had a strange smell though). The reception staff were friendly and helpful and told us a few things to do in town while we stayed. Bikes can be borrowed...
