Reported at reception in morning - positive response for further investigation. Restaurant on site - did not eat there as we were hungry and tired after traveling... More

This motel hands down the best relaxed and welcoming atmosphere I have come across in a long time. Meals are fabulous. Absolute value for money. A home away from home. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back. Cheers to the new management. Thanks heaps Lou and Chrissy for making our stay fantastic. All the best from ISTS

After a long flight our team were welcomed heartily by Chrissy and Louie. They are great fun. and their hospitality is genuine and first class. We dined in their rustic restaurant and each of us devoured our home cooked dinners (best salad in town). Facilities are comfortable and worthy of the price. We couldn't find fault anything. We certainly hope... More

We stayed 5 nights in this motel and enjoyed the time there. The owners have only recently taken over the property and already doing some great things with it. The units are clean and tidy and are being renovated as time permits. I understand the cleaning of some of the units where pretty rough under the previous management. This is... More
