Homey and comfortable
We loved everything, starting with such a warm welcome from Myrna. Our unit had everything we needed, and being able to use bikes, and any piece of beach equipment you can think of (including wagons for transport), made it feel like we were staying with friends.

Stay here!
One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. The location was really convenient to four mile beach, the women who worked there were very friendly and the place we had was very spacious. They had all sorts of things to make your beach day more enjoyable, including chairs, sand toys, balls, ice chests, boogie boards, etc. They also had some exercise equipment which you could take to your room and use. I would definitely stay there again.

One of the nicest places we have ever stayed. On the main drag of a cute little town right next to 4 mile beach. Perfect location. Everything worked in our suite with a fabulous kitchen that had everything you need. Plenty of room. Highly recommend the suite if you can get it. They have bikes, kayaks, floats, books, DVDs - all for free! Easily the best part of our trip to Australia.
