The location of the motel is fantastic, right on the beachfront, providing stunning views and easy access to the sea. Guests can enjoy a short drive to a nearby bar and restaurant that serves delicious food. it's conveniently located opposite a spot where visitors can witness the enchanting sight of little Blue Penguins coming ashore in the evening.

The thin walls in some rooms allow for noise disruptions from neighboring guests.
