Lovely view
Owners were very nice and our one-bedroom suite was lovely. We enjoyed the view and the spacious feel. The complimentary laundry facilities were also much appreciated.

2nd time staying here and, once again, had a fabulous stay. Conveniently located very close to the town centre and directly across the road from the beach. Such a stunning location. Very clean, large rooms with all the amenities you need. Would highly recommend.

Lovely beachside motel
We appreciated the easy check in and the room had was lovely. It felt like it had been recently renovated so everything was clean and modern. Comfy big bed, free parking and walkable to town. As far as motels go this was a pretty good one.

Ideally situated
Stayed in unit 10 which was very clean, well equipped and large with separate bedroom at the front right opposite the beach. Ideally located in a quieter part of the Esplanade but only one minute to walk to a good restaurant (Hiku) and an excellent breakfast at Dolphin Encounter cafe.

The unit is great and the view is stunning but the lack of any service over 3 nights was disappointing. At over 300 dollars a night the least we should have received fresh towels and rubbish removed at the very least.

Very nice beachfront motel. Our room was clean. It was just across the street from the beach. There wasn't a kitchen or microwave in the room but there was a common kitchen a few doors down. The shower was very nice

Kelly’s travels
Our apartment room 9 was on the very front with views of the water. They allowed us early check in. It was walking distance to main part of town. Separate bedroom and kitchenette. Very neat and tidy
