Handy motel

There are 2 Blue Marlin motels. Nos. 4 & 13 Buffalo Beach Rd. The photo on Hotels.com page is from 13. No4 is an older place, clean & well equipped but floorboards are squeaky. Not so good in a downstairs unit. Apart from that handy to town centre &over the road from beach & walkway

We loved it. Ocean beach facing (across a road and walking path) and walking distance from restaurants. We took the ferry across to walk the cliffs and visit more beaches.
