This property has fabulous views of the ocean and sea facing balconies in all rooms. It is quiet, peaceful and beautifully scenic. There are rocks and a mini beach at the foot of the small hill that the hotel rests upon and a public ocean baths about 50 metres down the road. Its a pleasant walk down to the town where there are lots of eating options. A great location and very comfortable, clean rooms. Hard to beat.

From walking into reception I felt at home. Lovely, friendly staff who were more than helpful. My room looked out over the ocean and was spacious and well appointed. I had a great couple of days stay and relaxed completely. I'm looking forward to another escape soon.

Property is in a terrific location right on the coast with a 50 metre rockpool 5 minutes walk away. Views are sensational. Probably need to drive to central Entrance for coffee and meals. There is a very good restaurant on site.

The location is terrific ....you literary look over the Ocean from your balcony ...we had an out door spa on the balcony so you could relax with a champers in hand amid the spectacular view ....highly recommend this type of room .... There is also a classy restaurant on the lower level serving high quality sea food again with the magic view ...for those who like a swim there is a 50 m sea pool just 50metres from the Motel .... Rooms were clean and tidy ...and staff very polite and helpful ....over all a 4.5 star rating ...
