Amazing place
An amazing hotel. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment with a balcony overlooking the sea. Easy straight forward check in. The apartment is so spacious and has everything you need. Fabulous kitchen well stocked with everything you need. Lovely bath and walk in shower. Comfortable beds. You will need to take food with you as no shops nearby. There is a cafe we did not go into it so cannot review. Overall an amazing place would definitely go back.

Check in was contactless and communication was excellent. We were made aware to bring our own supplies and kitchen equipment was adequate but personally would have liked larger mugs. Shower head and water pressure made showering unpleasant. Unit was clean and comfortable bed with great linen. Wonderful outlook your room.

A lovely sea view, clean and inviting studio. Heaters throughout ensured we were cosy on a cold night.
Quite good cooking facilities - a hotplate and microwave, but no oven or BBQ facilities.
Prompt communication from the host.
Easy off street parking.

Stunning seaviews from the unit and you can walk across the grass down to the beach. Comfortable and enough space, good shower. Would happily stay again. Carparking a bit cramped so may need to manoeuvre a little

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment and it is absolutely gorgeous. It had everything we needed, super comfortable beds, and an incredible view of the ocean with windows overlooking Porpoise Bay with a porch as well. Breathtaking. We walked right down to the beach from our place. Walked over to see penguins. The only problem we had was that the place was so beautiful that we had less motivation to go explore the area. We still did but loved returning to the beautiful accomodations.
