Romantic getaway
Brilliant! Walking through the back door you could be excused for thinking what have we done. Then you walk inside and Wow! Huge open plan setting, glass bi-fold doors opening onto a front deck, all about 50 metres from the water. Amazing facilities, awesome info regarding check-in. PS. If you do stay here, be sure to walk up the road to the Penguin Beer Co.

The photos of the property that was shown, was the front apartments which was looking over the beach, not the one that we had which was misleading. It was the one at the back. We had a train going past early hours of the morning tooting his horn. One thing I liked was how big the appartment was, modern n off street parking.

Thank you for taking the time to review our apartment ... unfortunately one my 4 seaview/oceanview apartments weren't available when you booked to stay. Moreover, the photos on the website do include many photos of the ParkView Apartment however you have maybe not noticed them. The hint is in the name "ParkView Apartment" but we do apologise for the confusion and glad you enjoyed your stay with us.

Really enjoyed this apartment. It is perfect for families or friends travelling. It was very, very clean. And it was fully furnished as a travel apartment. Full kitchen equipment, in-apartment laundry and all the necessary equipment and furnishing. A magnificent view of the ocean right outside the outside balcony. If you are in the area, this is the place to stay!

Spectacular views from an outstanding apartment. Much bigger than I expected, spotlessly clean, high spec, well maintained, comfortable beds, comfortable couches. Minor drawback was not so private on balcony, but the views and proximity to town amenities more than made up for that. Plus carpet on the balcony, rather than tiles, was great plus for comfort and noise reduction.

Thank you for an awesome review Tania and guests often comment that the apartments are much larger than they pictured ... the balcony is quite private, despite being mainly glass enclosure, however folks from the ground are unable to look and see too far in because of the elevation off the ground of the SeaView Apartments. Glad you had a wonderful stay with and please visit us again.
