Hotel is out of town a few kms. It was very clean but is very outdated. The couch needs updating. Towels were big and fluffy.

Property was clean and tidy with excellent layout for self contained group, location was convenient but the area was not scenic compared to some look. Good guest dining barbecue area.

Very nice clean and tidy well kept units, very happy to stay there again. The only issue we had in both units was the showers, poor hot water delivery, running hot and cold.

Pleasant Motel
I was very happy to aty at this place which is very convenient and complete.The manager Julie was very obliging when Wotif STUFFED UP our booking and did not tell her we had 4 rooms instead of three. She accommodated all of us with little fuss. The problem is that I STILL have not received a refund from Wotif after talking to them over the phone on our arrival for at least 20 Minutes and receiving all the platitudes anyone could bestow on you!! I doubt I will ever use them again for my bookings!! They have a beer garden fully stocked with drinks and food for guests to avail themselves on free of charge.

too expensive
for the money we paid could of had a 5 star motel in any city .The water pressure was so bad couldn't shower one day, and there were limited facilities in our room ,to prepare food etc ,generous with the tea ,coffee breakfast things.good bbq area with use of all facilities ,and were allowed to use the hotels kitchen for one night.There was a laundry that we were unaware of so spent $10 at the local laundromat instead. We were only ones there,overall if it was cheaper it would have been fairer for what we had,having said that it was warm, central,and the staff were like all King Islanders very friendly, have stayed in far worse.

Family stay
The deluxe apartment booked was excellent to cater for 3 generations of the family to stay under the one roof with adequate bedrooms to accomodate. The family room was was perfect for everyone to relax with morning sun streaming in. We will certainly stay there again. This is situated just out of Currie which was central for our needs for sightseeing around the island.

A delightfully pleasant and comfortable short weekend stay at Island Breeze Motel. The staff were exceptionally accommodating and the A-frame accommodation satisfied all our essential needs - with a kitchen, lounge area, dining area, a good shower and washing facilities and spacious bedrooms.

Island Breeze Review
We were disappointed as the room/accommodation was not as per the Expedia photos. The photo shows a two storey lodge but instead we were in an apartment near the reception. Whilst the apartment was clean and comfortable, it was not the ambience we expected. Overall though, the staff were wonderful especially when one found out I was gluten intolerant, I had a loaf of GF bread left for me for breakfast. Very thoughtful.

Thank you for for taking the time to leave a review, and we are glad you enjoyed your visit. Thank you also for raising the issues below. Unfortunately the local water is hard, and although we are are used to it, we are looking forward to the new water supply that is under construction now. It can be a bit cool in winter, and we scatter rugs around as well as providing split system air conditioning in the apartments. I hope we see you again sometime soon.

beautiful place to stay
Anna the lady who owns the chalets was exceptional. Spent a lot of time telling us where to go on King Island. The chalet was very comfortable and sleeps six. The view was amazing from the upstairs. On arrival my daughter had upgraded us and also Anna had beautiful flowers local hand made chocolates and a bottle of Janz Champagne which my daughter had asked Anna to have there. Ready for our arrival. We had just spent 13 days in Tasmania so my daughter wanted local champagne chocolates and flowers. Anna was really helpful and the chalets were really lovely. Had a fabulous time on King Island. Thank you Anna for your beautiful hospitality Jan K

Located just out of town (not that "town" is particularly big). I stayed in the motel, not the iconic A-frames. Cops plenty of wind form the ocean winds - it is called Island Breeze! - which whistled around the building all night. Very helpful on check-in.

Just right!
The Island Breeze motel provided exactly what was needed. Very friendly and helpful staff, a comfortable room with everything you'd expect, healthy breakfast laid on. Conveniently located, with the entrance on the main road, but the buildings set back so that it was absolutely silent at night. To top it off, my room had a wonderful view across rolling green fields to the Currie lighthouse and the ocean.

Modern, airy, and quiet accommodation
I stayed at the Island Breeze motel recently for 3 nights and thoroughly recommend it. I felt at home right away with easy parking directly behind my unit, and a large airy room that has a long view over to the Currie lighthouse and ocean. My room was a double with a large living area, modern TV and comfortable contemporary decore throughout including a large bathroom. A continental breakfast is provided each day and the motel is only a couple of minutes from the centre of Currie. I noted a covered BBQ area for patrons although I didn't need need it.
