Great, peaceful stay.”
Really enjoyed our stay. Very clean rooms & very friendly staff. Very nice outdoors areas just outside our room, for sitting out in the sun. They could do with better heating during the winter months. There was only a little fan heater, but everything else was great...

Good value. Good sized room. Very friendly owner, loved that he had surfboards, boogie boards and wetsuits to borrow for free! Would have liked to stay longer than our 1 night.

Stayed in a budget villa which was ok for the price. No pool at this motel, but beach not too far away. We only slept there as we were down for a family birthday party. If you only stay to sleep then it's fine.
