We really appreciated the free upgrade to the spa suite with a gorgeous view of the harbour. It was within walking distance of the jetty and its activities as well as the coastal trail. The place was clean and quiet. Some of the fixtures were a bit worn but we understand that an upgrade is coming in 2025. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location, plenty of hospitality only walking distance away and only a couple minute's to jetty beach and breakwall. The minimum of disturbance is the country link which rolls in every couple hours. But never really noticed it to much.

I loved how simplistic this place was. If we had more time, we would have spent a longer time here. Excellent front desk staff, parking was super easy, and the condo itself was clean. Super easy to walk over to the grocery store, bakery, or pub. Enjoyed!
