Our stay at Spindrift was good. It was close to the venues we attended. The pool was clean and handy for the kids to have fun. The furniture was a bit old, especially the bunk bed was squeaking in the quiet of the night. Also the kitchen utensils were not that clean. Overall, I think it was ok. We hardly stayed in so didn't feel it so much.

Very comfortable and in a great location

Fantastic location with direct beach access and only 3 doors down from Nobbys Beach Surf Club. Very friendly on site welcome from the staff. The property shows signs of wear in places but the overall condition is still great. Very very comfortable room with beautiful views from the balcony. Everything you need to have a great stay with a fully equipped kitchen and a laundry. I would definitely stay here again!
