"The stay was right on the bay, and the host was incredibly friendly and always checking in with guests to ensure they had everything they needed to feel right at home. She was very bubbly and funny! The only issue we had was that the shower was freezing after only a few minutes, and no matter whether I turned it off for a while it didn’t get warm again. There were also a lot of rules written around the building stating charges if guests didn’t abide, so I did feel a little on edge about possibly being charged for accidentally doing anything. Some felt unnecessary and as though I was at school, but I understand that there have likely been events in the past to feel the need to enforce those things. This is a really beautiful stay in the Catlins, and we saw sea lions on the beach!"

"The room is spacious and the continental breakfast is great. However, there are five other rooms on the property, and foot traffic in the corridor can be quite loud at times. The bathroom is not attached and is a bit of a hike from the room."

"Excellent room with lovely sea view. Good amenities. Great communication from staff. Local restaurant (Sandy's) was also very good."

"Wonderful, clean and spacious quarters with up to date bathroom facilities and lighting. Cordial and welcoming hospitality from the staff. Ocean view from the center area and a short walk to the beach. "

"Comfortable chairs with a view! Modern and clean. "
