Liked: Amenities
our room was nice and roomy. excellent bed and the room was well appointed with mini kitchen, charging pads for phones and huge TV. The view of the ocean was wonderful. It is in a remote area so we had long drives to go see activities. Food at the hotel was limited and the breakfast was expensive for what was available and was not great!.They encourage not getting the room serviced but did not say what to do with the rubbish that built up over 4 days.

Our room had a view to the water and the balcony was appreciated. The bed was comfortable and the room was well set up. Such a shame it was so badly insulated for noise and buses and trucks using the gravel driveway woke us up every morning. The restaurant food was thoroughly mediocre. Oven fries served with a $40 main course!

Beautiful area. Great view of bay. Most staff outstanding. Only exception - male staff person at desk Friday evening was checking us out early as we were leaving before desk opened Sat AM. Tour leader for large group arrived, and rather than finish checking us out, he had the nerve to ask us to come back later after he finished with group. Fortunately, the visiting tour guide had some manners and sensibility and told him to finish with us first.

Das Superior Zimmer mit Buchtblick hat sich absolut gelohnt. Gegenüber vom Balkon aus, konnten wir einen Koala den Baum hochklettern sehen. Delfine sind in der Ferne, am frühen Morgen vorbeigezogen. Ein leckerer Rotwein, Chips, Kekse und Wasser als Willkommensgeschenk. Bequemes großes Bett und schönes großes Zimmer mit Kühlschrank, Wasserkocher. Es gibt auch einen Nachttresor für späte Anreisen. Eine richtig tolle Gegend um alles zu erkunden.
