An excellent motel/apartment that was very clean and well cared for. We were upgraded to a two bedroom unit, one with a queen the other with a king bed. Large bathroom, including a very large shower with good pressure. Good size lounge area with 2 x 2 seat couches, a large (6 person) table and smart TV. Unit had an effective airconditioning unit, which we gratefully used on a couple of days. A two person seat outside the unit was excellent to sit and enjoy the evening sun. At the side of the unit was a BBQ area with two appliances and a large seating area. We used the BBQ for cooking. Owners were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and day-trip options. Only a short walk to the beach and a very good cafe. We stayed for nine nights and it flew-by. Highly recommended!!
