Room was clean, staff were nice. The staff at breakfast were lovely and attentive. The buffet breakfast was good the view was lovely.
Some of the room amenities were not great, the shower drained was clogged and started to fill in the bottom when you were in there. The hot water also took a long time to heat up. The tv wouldn’t turn on - I think batteries in the remote were flat maybe?

There was not much to like my husband and grandson stayed her overnight and thought they would be staying in a hotel however it was actually a motel the side of the property.

The room was number 50 and it was very very grubby, the carpet had stains all over it and the bathroom was not cleaned properly there was a lot of calciumn deposits on the bottom of the walls/floor.

The toilet was running constantly and then having to fill its cystern up when empty,

Whilst you cant help who books in it seemed to attract a particular type of clientelle and obviously the walls were very thin.

The other major item was the pool my grandson and husband were looking forward to using it only to find it was NOT heated, so in all the pictures on the web are quite misleading.

It bills as a 4 star hotel and from what my husband tells me it was nowhere near that.

He did say the staff were very friendly. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Actual health concerns regarding the mould in the bathrooms. Can’t be healthy being around this kind of bacteria.
The rooms are far noisier than preferred. You’ll hear your neighbour snoring and anyone wheeling baggage in or out at all hours.
The staff at reception was top quality and the only nice thing about this accomodation.

The lady at checkin was wonderful and our room was excellent.
The issue we had is with the wi fi. The property states there is free wi fi but when trying to get onto wifi it just went round and round with no sign of any connection happening for 5 to 10 minutes. Luckily the lady said it was iffy so if no luck to ring her and she would give me a secret password which would work so that is what I did and it did work. My concern is the property advertises free wi fi but it appears for everyday people the connection is poor at best and at worst non existent. Luckily for us the lady gave us the secret password and that worked.
The other positive I want to give is free laundry facilities which my wife made good use of and the facilities were excellent.
Other than the wifi issue it was a good stay at the property.

Long black hairs in my bath tub. Wierd vibrating coming from the cupboard like a phone. Was every 10 mins in the evening then through the night it woke me three times. I thought it was the aircon unit so switched this off well before going to bed.
Looked in cupboard and its roof had big hole. Talked to staff in morning; the ‘handyman’ just screwed a board to the ceiling so once again the vibration was all night. No apology for lack of sleep. Just ‘oh I’ll sending someone up’. I did ask if the could wrap it do it diedjt vibrate in the wood. I could see in and the pipe was also dripping from the air con; next to the electrical wire.
Food was excellent.

The ocean was visible from our room which was so nice, unfortunately the window/sliding door wasn't clean, and the patio furniture was also not clean, so we didn't sit outside. I was expecting a microwave but am okay that we didn't have one. The room was nice, the bathroom was lovely and clean, and we loved how nicely our room was cleaned each day. Parking was perfect and the staff were nice, especially in the restaurant. We will definitely reccomend and come back.

Loved the view!
We reported a leak as a result of the storm on the weekend. The carpet inside the front sliding door was saturated. We were asked if we wanted to change rooms but were happy where we were. Connor at the desk said he would arrange for us to have a free breakfast on Sunday morning (which we were over the moon about). Sadly on coming home I see from my bank statement that I have been charged $64, presumably for the breakfast. The other disappointment was the spa buttons didn't work so no bubbles. Saturday the water felt warm but Sunday barely warm.

Bit dated and noisy

Rated as the best in town might be an overstatement. The building has been refurbished a few times in its life. Being built from beater blocks the noise from adjoining rooms travels easily. Out of the 6 possible neighbours it likely to have one that is inconsiderate. The room was cold despite the air conditioner being set on 24. There is a sign on the aircon not to change it. Probably a sign of the building’s age. Given the high price the room was a bit underwhelming. Old, cold and noisy.

No one on site for at least 18 hours! Guests had to help new guests check in (no, I'm not kidding). Then, next day, the staff member at front desk was rude and dismissive about the past day's site abandonment. More to tell, but running out of space here.
