Unfortunately if it wasn’t for our gps we would never have found the place ( not that easy for us to find )
Great family friendly spot to stay and in the summer months it would be fantastic. The 2bedroom Villa had everything we needed. The only negative is the highway and how close but only for the noise at night but other than that will stay again and maybe ask for a Villa not as close to the road maybe. Thank you
Great accommodation for a weekend away. We had a beautiful river view from our room. Highly recommended and would happily come back. Thank you!

Overall okay and clean on our arriving/first reception was fantastic, she could'nt help enough. Our exist/leaving reception wasn't perlite at all whilst thinking people are silly with how the world works in receiving our own bond money back as an eftpos transaction in the 21st century, really, 5 days for a 24hr transaction.
Good location and views of the bay. The staff were very accommodating to our needs.

Very good considering the age of the venue. The staff at reception were very good ,as were the staff in the restaurant. Our meal was better than a lot of more expensive restaurants in Hobart.
We had the 2 bedroom apartment as it was the only way we could upgrade to have a queen bed. The amenities were satisfactory but it has no air-conditioning in the bedrooms - only in the lounge room. The blankets were heavy. Strangely, of the many accommodation we have stayed in for this holiday, this motel was the only one that has small TV with tinny sound quality. The apartment was situated close to the road and was noisy from 6am onwards.

nice place, staff was super helpful regarding late check ins
Peaceful setting with beautiful views. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff were excellent. Very friendly and efficient. Overall good value for money. My only criticism would be the lack of blinds on the upper windows as the outside light came in this made it difficult to get to sleep. Also thicker, fluffier towels would be good.

Beautiful outlook with lovely grounds. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are very basic, but as described. There was hair on the sheets and pillow which the staff dismissed as their cleaning staff shedding hair while servicing the room.
