Pleasant, chilled vibe with great customer care

I stayed for just 1 night on my way back to Brisbane after a trip to one of the islands. After my one night stay at another place in the area on the way out, my expectations were low but were definitely exceeded. Fantastic views, a clean, spacious room, nice pool, good location and the friendly, helpful hosts made it a fabulous stay - it was just so easy and comfortable. I'd definitely go back, maybe with the family next time.
