"Great owners and Rachel the cook was very nice abd helpful. As a retired chef, I can say this was a cool experience to relax and not cook while enjoying my stay here. Thanks to the owners! The receptionist could be a little bit sour acting, but the rest of the staff was WONDERFUL!"

Beware of the cost of any boat related trips.There is a $16 per head charge if you go afloat in the Marine Park. There is also a lot of plastic pollution immediately in front of the hotels beach caused by the hundreds of decaying plastic sacks.
