The quality of the shower was a challenge. The water temperature was erratic and the shower head was very loose. Stayed in early October and found the heating only just warm enough. Some family type games for rainy days would be welcome.

Good, comfortable property right off the beach. Private, and easy access to road and dining options. Definitely not a motel feel (with individual cottage concept).

The room was nice and spacious, and the location just steps from the waterfront was nice. Note that the beach begins a few hundred meters further down, at the motel it is just a sea wall.

Right on the beach off highway 6 and around the bend from the Pancake Rocks and Cave attractions. Room was clean and had bed and separate sitting area. Wi-Fi for us was spotty at times. Nearest restaurant down the road about 400 m where you also check-in. We thought room was fine for a night’s stay.

The cabin was brilliant. Spacious, clean. Location was 20 second walk to the shore, which had some picnic tables to enjoy the sunset. Highly recommend. Only note... check-in is at a pub/restaurant down the street.

Lovely room with small kitchen (which we did not use). Great location. Small bed for 2 persons, but there was a small single that my wife used. Shower was okay. Short walk to a nice restaurant and bar with a great vibe. A little confusing with address, because you have to check-in at the above mentioned restaurant.

Perfect stop along the west coast

Loved this place. Perfect overnight spot traveling along the west coast and right next to the Pancake Rocks and Blowholes. Cottages were comfortable and spacious and well equipped and sunset views on the beach were unbeatable. We enjoyed the restaurant bar and David and staff were wonderful. Highly recommend.
