Solid Stay Near the Beach

separate bedroomcomplete setwell maintained pool
The separate bedroom in my unit provided good privacy. The kitchen had a complete set of dishes and utensils. The pool was a nice addition and seemed well maintained, it allowed for relaxation after a day exploring. I appreciated the provision of tea bags and salt.
The bathroom lacked towel racks, slightly inconvenient.
Dining
9/10
The provided kitchen included a microwave, stovetop, and full-size refrigerator. I noticed a Woolworths supermarket is conveniently located just around the corner, this allows for easy grocery shopping. There were also tea bags for the guest.

convenient stay near the beach

convenient locationback gateearly noise
the location was very convenient. back gate access into the lost springs was available. i also enjoyed the short five-minute walk to bars and shops. the wifi worked perfectly.
our room was directly outside the cleaning supply storage. there was a lot of noise outside our room from early hours. access from room to car was not ideal either.
