We stayed for three nights in an ocean view room. Room has a nice view and is of a good size, bed was comfortable. Denham was very quiet. The resort is of reasonable standard but showing the impact of being close to the sea and a needs a good refurbishment, staff we met were pleasant and helpful. We travelled out to Monkey Mia, about a 25 minute easy drivre, to see the doplhins, the facilities there are amazing.

Location is great and staff were lovely. But the hotel is very dated. The outside of the fridge was very dirty - I didn’t complain though as the inside was clean so I suppose that’s what matters. It felt like I paid a lot for something basic - but there aren’t too many accommodation options.

I stayed here for 4 nights in total, unfortunately it was extremely disappointing. I had the “Please make up my room” sign on constantly and it was never done. Unless you call pulling up the bed sheets once. Towels were never changed, no milk replacement, no rubbish remove and no toilet paper, so I ended up using tissues.

Hotel staff was accommodating and friendly. The location is great, right across the beach. Make sure to call ahead for dinner at The Old Pearler. Best food in town, supposedly, but small, so they don't take walk-ins.
