Property was beautifully clean.
Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable.
Shower was excellent and had great water pressure which is often a fail in a lot of motels.
Loved our stay.

View was nice, located on a hill. Couldn’t see the ocean from the ground floor. Parked in front of our unit. Merimbula is a beautiful spot, with lots of walks and beaches. Staff were happy to help.

Unreal shower
Brilliant stay at this hotel. Bed was clean and comfortable. The shower was incredible with the water pressure! Basic amenities but comfortable. Lovely views of the sea from the room. Would definitely stay here again.

Limited ocean views
We saw a tiny peak of the ocean through the stairs when we were outside our room. Bit disappointing when the motel is called Ocean Views. Room was clean & tidy. Check in was via text, no personal contact with venue.

Everything was absolutely fine. No problems, no complaints. The wifi was very good. Lots of hot water. The lighting was also good, not always a strong point with motels. I would certainly stay there again.
