Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Definitely a range of reviews here and many seem to be reviewing apartments before they were taken over by the new owners or are other for other apartments in the complex. Apartment 12 managed by Jay and Rod is excellent - I believe they gave a second one in the same complex too. Very comfortable, all conveniences thought of and lots of sustainable consideration.great location and if you look carefully you can sometimes spot the koalas in the surrounding bushland. My daughter loved all the special seaside decorative touches. Best value we’ve found in the Bay!”
