    Great location and good weather, but construction underway of which we were unaware dampened things a bit.

    For the price the meals were disappointing, especially the grilled fish. They supplied a second portion, which was not a lot better. We suspect that given low customer numbers it was a bit on the old side.

    Two nights Oct 2026

    Very friendly staff. The room was a good size, nice big comfy bed, warm as. Nice wall lamps once I figured out how to work them.

    The water in the shower is touchy, or otherwise I don't know how to control it properly. Also the shampoo and conditioner need to be mounted somewhere in the shower, not in the vanity drawer. ALSO, there was no soap. I had to ask for those after coming back from a long first day at my uncle's tangi. And the bathroom floor creaks badly. Also put a shelf or something in the shower. I noticed there's no phone in the unit so I had to phone reception on my mobile phone. The second night someone was parked in my immediate space and the ones all along that row of units. I wouldn't have minded but I have a disability and getting to my unit that night was a nuisance as some stairs were blocked off due to the current renovations.

    The location and view from room was beautiful. The room was clean and the bed was so comfortable. The restaurant and food was beautiful. The staff were friendly and helpful

    The wifi kept disconnecting from our room. You had to go outside to the car park to get wifi connection. There was no hot water the morning we left and we had a cold shower
