Host was amazing, highly reccomend

This is a true hostel. The room we stayed in was small, no microwave or tv. There were some ants but nothing that wasn't remedied by taking the garbage out of the room. It was fine for the 2 nights we stayed but wouldn't have wanted to stay longer.

The property was great and staff was very welcoming when we checked in early. It was a communal spirit on site.

We stayed in the ensuite hut. It was very clean and spacious, you could use the combined kitchen and BBQ area if you liked but our room had it's own mini fridge, and plates and cutlery. It's all set in a lovely garden. A quiet place to stay.

This property far exceeded our expectations. We expected a room with a bathroom and nothing else..... for the price we paid we were happy with that. The beds were comfy. The owner was friendly and chatty. The rooms were well stocked with jug, toaster fridge. There was a fan for the hot nights. It was close to town. The gardens made it seem like we were on a tropical island get away. It isnt a fancy hotel but we were pleasantly surprised with this property.

Motel like accomodation out the back, privately set amongst beautiful scenic flora and trees. The house is the backpacker part, the motel like self contained units were separate behind the house. Love it and would stay again

The unit was private, clean and comfortable. It maybe needed a heater because of the unusual weather. (The hailstorm) The little outside table and chairs on the verandah were lovely in the morning sunshine and the attractive surroundings.

Bbq and pizza oven were great for cooking our own meals. Separate cabin was quiet and comfortable. No screens on the windows means you’ll get a lot of bugs when you open them to cool down the room
