The motel is lovely, our room was clean and comfortable.. Parking at the room, walk to shops and meals. The owner pointed us in the right direction for a safe swim with children and the club for dinner was great. We would recommend this lovely motel.

This was the perfect dog friendly accommodation we needed for an overnight stay while on a road trip. Check in and check out was easy, staff were great. Our room was a good size, spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. We will definitely be back on our next road trip!
