It was a clean studio room and I liked that I could look across the road to the sea.So close to go to the beach for walking, swimming, snorkelling.Also to see the sunsets. Staff were friendly.I also found the food from the cafe was good quality on the couple of times I ordered. Liked that could get the fox footy at the bar so could watch my team back in Brisbane.
