The owners were amazing. When we arrived they had made up our room with a porta cot for our infant and helped us carry up our baggage. The following day as we were planning to leave via taxi they offered us a lift to pick up our hire car from the airport! Very kind, accomodating and welcoming staff. Room was big and had everything we could need. Location was convenient to the airport and to the beach/food. Would stay again and recommend to all.

Think hard about staying
Clean. Big problem with noise easily heard from room above eg clearly heard conversations. Also there is a backpacker accomodation behind motel. Noise until 1.45 am. Not much sleep between both of those things. Also room with two beds swapped for room with one bed. Very inconvenient for my daughter and I to share a bed.
