You need a car when you stay at this property. The wife and husband owners are so nice and helpful to show the kitchen. There is a professional kitchen all equipped that guests can use until 10pm. The view from my room was seaside and wonderful

The owner lady and her are delightful. The room is facing the sea which is creating dramatic atmosphere. Just the stairs are a bit hard to carry luggage’s, but the owner’s son gave us big help to carry the cases for us. Overall fantastic experience to stay in Shari.

My partner and I planned on camping and the campsites had closed for the season, so we went looking for options. This hotel was great! We ended up staying an additional night here, and plan to incorporate it into trips to the area in the future. The family that ran the hotel were wonderful and patient with the language barrier at times. We hope to stay again!

An oasis
A truly awesome oasis on the edge of town, with superb views over the bay, and lovely owners who go out of their way to help you. The other guests were also friendly, and the set-up of the open kitchen where you can prepare your own meals is a bonus. Actually the best bonus was the free coffee available 24/7. That was a blessing to the two drowned rats who made it to the hotel in a torrential downpour… You would be hard-pressed to find better accommodation on the peninsula, and far less likely to meet nicer people. 5 big stars.

Much better than I expected. Rooms were clean and seemed renovated. Beautiful view from rooms. Room like a hotel, facilities and convenience of hostel with a large common kitchen and dining area. Staff were helpful. Not quite in town (a few minutes drive), but this made for a beautiful sea view.

Staff did not bother to share about the more convenient way to move luggage to room during checking in. Generally not helpful.

Very nice
房間乾淨、海景很漂亮、有免費熱咖啡可以喝。 地點離商店有點遠,不過來這裡的住客都是開車,所以不成問題。 比較不解的是發生三次詭異的現象,吃完晚餐回到房間後,蓮蓬頭自己打開噴水,而且還是開到最大的那種,因為不是小小的水流,所以也不是沒關好的緣故,因為每次離開房間回來後就又開始噴水,最後決定邊錄影邊鎖門,回來再開錄影,但這樣做卻又一切正常了,後來開車也累了,所以也沒有再在意了。 (老闆的想法覺得是門關太大了或根本沒關好🤔)
