Total diamond in the rough - the niceness to price ratio is amazing. Plus it just has those extra little comforts and style points that make it a pleasant stay e.g. modern decor, nice soaps, comfy beds, your own parking space, easy key pick up and return. I've stayed here a couple times and definitely will again next time I'm in the area.

No contact with any staff just text to give room entry details. Fridge was not on and was a hot day. Curtains did not close entirely and were located too far away from window allowing passing persons to see in. No bedside lights and minimal power outlets. Will not return. Still believe it is nice to have personal contact at reception desk.

This is our third stay at the Surf Beach Motel & as always the rooms were clean, comfortable & well equipped with everything needed for an overnight stay.
The only comment I have is, for the forst time we were on the upper level & the stair case had no proper handrail. With my elderly brother who is not well & myself with bad balance this was a bit uncomfortable to navigate.

The owners greeted us with smiles and friendliness. We had some laughs together and spoke about family. They asked us about our trip and offered help with our bags as we are a little senior and needed some assistance. We stayed in the 2 bedroom penthouse and it had all necessary kitchen items and was nicely presented. Love it!!!

Good motel for an overnight stay

Good budget motel room for an overnight stay. Room size 18metre2 so a bit tight on one side of the bed. Good wifi, air conditioning/heating and shower. Access to the budget room was via and external timber staircase. Good allocated on-site parking. Motel also offers larger rooms at a higher price.

Loved it all except for the very dusty drinking glasses & the shelves on which they sat
Also it sounded like we were adjacent to a laundry as someone was using dryers til late
Otherwise the bed was very comfortable but we found it unusual that there wasn't the option of 2 pillows each
The room itself as well as bathroom were clean
Location is convenient and well situated
Loved that we didn't actually have to deal with a human for checkin & checkout
This was our second stay here & would recommend
