The hotel is beautiful with very friendly and helpful staff. John from concierge and Rosie at the front desk made our stay even more memorable. The beach and pool are stunning, the breakfast had a good variety and good food and the hotel offers a free shuttle into Newtown in the evenings which was perfect for dinner. We would definitely come back to stay.

Dirt parking for guests. Swimming pool groutlines are missing, glass shower door does NOT open all the way. Thanks to the staff who upgraded our deluxe room to a junior suite, but I’m glad it was free because i dont think it’s worth the advertised price of the room.
