Great place to stay

A great place to stay for a girls weekend away. Walking distance to restaurants and pools. Comfy beds. Friendly hosts. Great value for money. Would have liked Netflix but guess it wouldn't have been such good value for money then as the rate would have to increase! We plan to return in 2024.

The accommodation is quiet, very clean and well appointed. We loved having the decking, very sunny property so lovely to relax on the deck. We used the queen bed and pull-out couch, both were very comfortable. Facilities in the room were spot on, stove top, fridge, coffee/tea, toaster etc available if you wanted to do meals. The motel is very close to hanmer shopping, pools, walking tracks, bars and restaurants etc. We had a fab stay here and will definitely book again when visiting. Thank you to the proprietors. Highly recommend this accommodation.

10/10 Would definitely stay there again

5 adults/ teenagers stayed in a 2 bedroom unit. Great pull out couch for the 5th person. A 2 block walk from the hot pools Pros - Towels provided for hot pools - Quiet units - Super Friendly staff - Comfortable units with lots of prep room in the kitchen Cons - More time couldn't be spents with the General Manager (if you know you know) - Lack of plugs.( couldn't find any in the bedroom with the 2 single beds)
