The room and building are dated. Even though I rarely use a mini bar this was non existent, however you could purchase items IF reception is open !! The room was sparse the bathroom very small. Even though it said ocean views it was more like tree view.

Hello L on Wotif, We are sad to hear that your stay was not up to your expectations. We are an above average 4 star motel at affordable prices. Our facilities in the room are standard and above average for many motels in the area. Unfortunately we cannot control the tree growth on The Strand which partially blocked your view of the ocean. The minibar service we provide at our reception, due to Covid-19 restrictions our reception desk hours are temporarily reduced. A minibar in your room is becoming very rare these days unless you are in a top class hotel, even then is limited and expensive. Beverages and snack are able to be pre-ordered prior to your stay to be placed in your room upon your arrival. Best wishes from the management team at Waters Edge The Strand
