Poor customer service, No hot water, breakfast was overpriced and average. Found hair in the sink and on the mattress. Booked Seaview ocean side room. On arrival told it wasn’t available so had a noisy road side room , no discount or compensation offered. Could be a great hotel but staff and management running at super poor level. Shame

Lovely staff rooms need to be sorted out.

We had a great time here. The staff were brilliant and very helpful. The condition of the rooms is not up to scratch but we were compensated for the problems we experienced. Rooms need to be fully tested before guests can stay. TV didn't work at all and the air con was on and off.

great location to surf

we really had great time at this hotel. The staff is really gentle. The hotel and its public area really nice. The location is one of the best for surfers with a reaf break point and a beach break. except for surfing, there are not a lot of activites around the hotel.
