“Warm and homely”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 April 2012

We spent 10 wonderful days here. The hosts were helpful and kind and friendly. They both ensured all our needs were meet. The unit was very clean, tidy and comfortable. Our children enjoyed the location being close to shops and a skate park. We will be back to stay sure.

The rooms are very comfortable, everything is in walking distance, including my favorite the pier, and Caroline beach, and the hosts were absolutely wonderful people. I will definately come back.

My partner booked this scummy motel through the net pics are very deceiving. The fridge stunk, the bathroom was grubby, not a secure place for children at all. Rated a 3 star, makes a good tui ad "yeah right."
