Beautiful beach stay
"Really lovely to walk into the room and see the beach. Very clean and comfy. The cockatoos made themselves at home on our balcony and even tried to sneak into our room for our free hotel biscuits. It would be nicer if the bed faced the other way then we could lay in bed looking at ocean"
