Greeted in a friendly efficient manner and made to feel like nothing was too much trouble for the owner. Not sure why we got twin beds when we were a married couple; but it did not matter as we were only overnighting en route to the Gold Coast Airport. Lovely selection of breakfast options and other nibbles in our room contributed to the loveliness of the place and so handy to local restaurants and the airport.

Lovely room very close to the airport. We checked in and out outside reception hours for a one night stay and it was so smooth and easy. Breakfast basket was a lovely touch especially when we were on the move with a toddler. Just made us feel so welcome and thoughtfully cared for. Would be looking forward to another stay.

Quirky

Lovely quirky motel. New and nice and clean. Room is compact and bathroom tiny. So probably good for a night or two but would be cramped for longer. Welcome pack and breakfast fabulous. Got morning sun but a bit gloomy in the afternoon. OK walk to/from airport- even with heavy bags…

The place was perfect for a quick get away, only stayed one night but Diane and John the owners made a big impact on our stay, very friendly and going beyond to make sure our stay was memorable. The breakfast basket was a big win for us, so thoughtful. We will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to others.
