The hotel was placed perfectly on the beach, and late check-in worked smoothly. However, after a long day of driving, we got to our room, which was right across from the hotel bar, which had karaoke on full blast until 11pm - that was not part of the plan.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very convenient centralised position on the island. If it's not halfway between Horseshoe Bay (furthest populated point north) and Picnic Bay / West Point (furthest point/s south), it's very close to it! Quick drive up to Forts carpark for all the good walks and beaches, and a good middle ground. Swimming beach Alma Bay is a few steps away, as are the rock wallabies, across the road. Didn't get to snorkel due to winds (disappointing, but what can one do?) but there is apparently also excellent snorkelling across the road at Geoffrey Bay.

We loved our stay. Easy bus ride from the ferry. Check in was simple - just picked up an envelope with our name and a key. The adjacent bar/restaurant and pool are a bonus. We enjoyed it so much we decided to extend our stay for a second night. All that took was a text and the staff accommodated us. Great location and great facilities on a beautiful island.

Enjoyable stay

A great location and friendly staff. Our room was a little tired however it looks like the downstairs rooms have been renovated so upstairs will probably be done before too long.
