Bucklands Beach Waterfront Motel
3.0 star property
Bucklands Beach
8.2 out of 10, Very good, (403 reviews)
"There is too much squashed into the room. The kitchenette idea does not provide for your toaster or kettle to sit out. Drying your dishes has no place. Instructions on out of office arrivals are posted on the door - however they are not correct. You use the ring door bell at the side. It was adequate for our 2 night stay in a super location and the bed was comfy. Maybe just needs a reconfigured room."
