Nice place to stay

A little dated, but nice place to stay. Right across from the esplanade. Short drive or a 20 minute walk into the heart of the city. Would stay again.

We stayed here for 9 nights. Great little apartment, kitchen, laundry, drier, ocean views, heated pool, nice grounds, friendly staff, easy walk into town (we like to walk), nice deck for people watching (looking straight at the esplanade), a great place to go and escape the southern cold! We will definitely stay here again!

James, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had 3 self contained apartments with views across the Esplanade and beyond. The rooms were very comfortable and met all our needs. The property manager Anthony was excellent, providing any assistance we needed. The pool was delightful and the surrounding gardens give privacy and a tropical setting.
Mary, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely view over the park and waterfront, well appointed but needs some minor refurbs.
Jenny, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Communication prior to our stay. Clear instructions on how to enter premises and check in. Two bedroom apartment was spacious for our family of 5, including 3 teenagers. Cooking facilities were in good working order and the full size fridge with freezer was great. Laundry in apartment was very handy for washing and drying towels and was stocked with laundry detergent. One more roll of toilet paper would have been great 😃
