Delicious Wood-Fired Pizza

“During my stay, I was excited to try the famous wood-fired pizza. Although we prepared our own dinner the first night, I could smell the pizza from the restaurant, and it seemed like all guests were enjoying their meals, chatting, and laughing around the bar. Next time, I'll be sure to indulge in this treat!” view full review

Fun for Kids

“My kids had an absolute blast playing in the kids playground right next to the motel. They spent over an hour observing rabbits and parrots in the area. It was so peaceful and great to see them enjoying the environment. The playground equipment, including a big bouncy trampoline, was a huge hit with the children!” view full review

Spacious Family Suite

“We were thrilled with the family suite we were assigned. It had a queen bed in the front, a well-equipped kitchenette, and two sets of bunk beds at the back, which provided just the right separation for our two families. The lower-level bunk beds were even double-sized! It was perfect for our needs.” view full review

Clean and Convenient

“The bathroom in our suite was clean and spacious, providing plenty of room for all our toiletries. I appreciated the small touches, like having soap and cleaning products accessible, which made our stay more comfortable. Everything was in working order, ensuring a hassle-free experience.” view full review

We had an amazing three-night stay that exceeded our expectations. The rooms were clean, well-equipped, and the beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring we got plenty of rest. The dining experience was delightful, with generous portions and delicious food. While the Wi-Fi was spotty in our room, the overall quality of the accommodation and the friendly service made for a highly enjoyable stay. The location is lovely being close to outdoor activities, but be prepared for a short drive to reach more dining options.
