Fabulous view of the water but the properties interior is very tired & needs a full upgrade. When I arrived the office was locked & it took a while to find someone to check me in. The cleaner greeted me with a lovely smile but the female Manager offered no smile or welcome & seemed less than impressed I needed help. It could be a cultural thing but she didn’t even show me to the door - very rude. She said I was to park in No.7 carpark & she was parked there! - again no apology. I asked if there was an additional carpark as there were only 2-3,cars in the carpark - again she was most unhelpful. Hours later she banged on the door & said we could also use No8 carpark - again no smile. When I left at 5am there were plenty of extra carparks available so what was the problem? This person should not be in this role as she will drive guests away & you’d certainly never go back.I was in Unit 7 & with no soundproofing it was like a herd of elephants had moved in upstairs - the guests must have had young children. My Family from England stayed here approx 20years ago when it was owned by Barry Curtis & it was fabulous. On the plus side the male owner was very helpful on the phone & offered a 1pm check-in. Thank you.

Beautiful views. Dislike: neighboring unit's aircon unit vents hot air onto patio.

Clean and neat, but tired. Needs repainting and replacement of some thing such as windows that do not close.

Great location on the beach front. I was in a small, basic unit that had everything needed for a short stay. Clean and quiet.

Great Stay with views over the water. Staff very friendly and helpful. The only issue we had was you could hear the people above us, but apart from that we had a great stay for our event. Thanks
