Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Travelled with our dog, the room was clean, well set up for our needs and the location is unbeatable and so very well maintained. There were 3 of us in the group and all was perfect! I would give this place a 6/5 if I could!

Disliked: Cleanliness
On entry to room 16, it seems the cleaner is a fan of bleach bleach bleach. Located the broken fan in cupboard and placed near fridge over the dropped coffee granules from prevous guest to try and air the room. Main bed was lumpy. On a positive note, we really enjoyed dinner cooked by the 2 ladies at the restaurant
lovely settling, easy to find, plenty of outdoor space and nice veranda, comfortable bed. Few details that made it less than 4 stars: Not enough hot water for three people to have a shower in the evening. Only two towels provided for three people. Bathroom sink doubled as washing up sink, no dish clothes/tea towels provided, washing up bowel didn't fit into the sink, not really enough space for simple food preparation. I think with a little attention to detail to could be very good.
There were large cobwebs in the room above the bed, the little kitchen fridge was old and loud at night, the shower was old and took a long time to warm up, the tv remote didn’t work, the kitchen window didn’t have blinds/curtains so the morning light comes straight through to the bed, there were rats running through the roof, the spa wasn’t working.
