Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    It’s close to everything and the pub meals are very family friendly. The motel section was also a little quieter away from the pub noise.

    I stayed here in late 2023 and this was a return visit. An older style motel accommodation. Very central location. Close to all the shops and lots of good cafes etc. which is a bonus. Older accommodation but has everything needed for a comfortable stay. Shower good. All facilities for preparing meals if needed. Room very clean and beds very comfortable. Noise factors not too bad given its very central location. Easy walk to the waterfront and beach and transport if needed.

    I was only here for one night, but i wish i could have stayed longer! The facilities within the park were fantastic and the room itself was superb. Very comfortable and clean and felt very safe. There was a food trailer in the evening to purchase really good street food, and a coffee trailer in the morning serving really good coffee and healthy breakfast bowls. There was also great laundry facilities and a childrens play area, as well as a bird feeding station!

    Location, location, location. Rooms have an ocean view. They are in front of a kids playground, right in the middle of all the stores and restaurants. The room was very spacious, lots of space for a family of 4. They were very accommodating to a late arrival. Free parking space provided. We did not use it but our room even had a washing machine which would have been so helpful if we were further in our journey. Do not be deterred by the front appearance or view from parking garage, it's amazing.
