Awesome spot
Great location, great views and plenty of room. We walked down the track to the Pier Hotel for dinner and got the shuttle back up the hill. Plenty of walking tracks close by and short drive into town. We would book this again without hesitation.

Mid Winter Christmas break for life long friends
Loved everything about this place. 2 lounges are wonderful. Would love to come back in summer to enjoy the outdoor bbq area. Observation from the one who slept in one of the single beds. Perfect for kids but not the over 70s.😉

Good place and beautiful morning sunrise!
Location is very good, you can enjoy the beautiful sunrise and seashore. But the kitchen equipment are not perfect. The stove is not powerful enough. Overall It's a pretty good house! Love it!
