On Germain was a great stay. So many things to do with short day trips, Port MacDonnell is a nice spot if you want to take it easy and do things at your pace. John the owner was great with some local knowledge and provided a very pleasant accommodation option.

Beautiful seaside home

A beautiful seaside home to relax in and to enjoy the special Port Macdonnell coastal area from. It has everything you need with very comfortable beds and bedding and a lovely upstairs area with a fully equipped kitchen, lounge and dining area with great views.
