We were very much looking forward to our stay here and treated ourselves to a waterfront room thinking it would be really special. I have to say we were left with very mixed feelings about this hotel and I will provide I hope an unbiased fair review. The staff were without exception very friendly and welcoming. Our room on first impression was a lovely room recently refurbished and spacious. Unfortunately it smelt very badly of damp and upon inspection we noticed the carpet by the bed was soaking wet and the aircon was dripping. We reported it and someone came to fix it but they didn’t fix it! We reported it again and were told we could be moved but not until we returned from a night out for dinner. The hassle of moving everything late at night just for 2 nights didn’t seem worth it so we stayed where we were. Nobody returned to fix it and we were offered no compensation whatsoever.
The hot tub by the pool was broken and didn’t work. Neither did the card machine whilst trying to pay for a coffee.
The hotel itself is in a great location and on first impression it looks lovely - but it’s the attention to detail in maintenance that will leave customers disappointed with their experience of staying here.

The upgrade superior room was old, the air conditioner didn’t work, the bathroom was less than a three star bathroom, the parking is boom gated, no advance warning you’d pay for parking, visitors immediately $25, quests $15. Many years ago it was great, value for money, today will be my last there!

Check-in was easy and smooth.
Both bar service and restaurant service was sadly lacking.
Thought it was mercenary to charge guests for parking in the open.

Lovely hotel with excellent staff. We had a health issue while staying and the staff could not have been better - organised a doctors appointment and were extremely attentive.

The pool area at this property was nice.
The king bed was two twins pushed together which is fine however this either didn’t have a mattress topper or needs a new one as all bumps were felt in the middle of the bed making it uncomfortable

The property is misleading when it says there’s parking available you must pay $15 per day to another company to park in front of the hotel

We booked 2 rooms. In 1 room the shower leaked badly and had low pressure. In the other room the hot water lasted about 30 seconds, then went cold.

Paid $450 a night for a water view in which the balcony I couldn’t use due to the ridiculously loud air conditioning unit underneath it. Made it unbearable to be outside.
