Lovely place to stay. Huge rooms, huge living area and very good kitchen set up. The balcony was really big too.
Beds were comfortable and good amenities.
Parking was easy and check in was very easy too.
So close to the beach, jetty and park for the kids. Just a really good place to stay.

What could be improved: Only thing that was a slight problem, the fridge seal wasn’t quite sealing properly and the fridge also was quite smelly (I’m guessing it was old fish smell). It would be good for the fridge to have a good clean and maybe have the seals replaced.

BUT! Our 5 days were lovely, and we will rebook.
Our unit was lovely. The setting of the complex is beautiful. Straight across from the waterfront. Walking distance to shops, clubs, parks, cafes galore. Very quiet and relaxing.

What could be improved: The only thing I didn't like were the steps. I have health issues and the stairs were difficult.
Otherwise I couldn't fault it.
