Lovely location right on the water. Staff were great, I had a late check in and they communicated with me for late check in options. Restaurant next door, Tinta had great breakfast.

Beautiful view, lovely staff
Beautiful view and outlook from our lake side room. The room was a bit dated, needs a refresh. Comfy bed and great aircon. Overall a good place to stay, close by to shops (10min walk or 2min drive). Staff were so lovely, checked in with us multiple times. Would stay again :)

8/10 Very good

The location and layout of the 2 bedroom accommodation is very convenient and there is an excellent restaurant adjoining the motel. The fittings and beds in the room were very dated and at a minimum the mattresses could be replaced to provide a more pleasant rest.
