We stayed in the king deluxe suites in rooms 24 and 25, which were upstairs. The rooms carpet and bathroom and cabinetry haven't been rennovated like the other rooms. The air cons, TV, appliances and bed were relatively new. Rooms were roomy with a 3 seater sofa, but the sofa was worn. The air cons were really strong which was great because upstairs can get really hot. The housekeeping did an acceptable job. The pool has recently been rennovated and it was a good size and depth and was clean. The BBQ area had 2 gas BBQs and two huge tables and plenty of seating. We cooked dinner on the BBQ every night we were there. The kids playground had plenty of options for my toddler and she loved it. I didn't interact with the staff much so I'm I can't really review them. The rooms carpets and bathrooms just need to be rennovated. Otherwise our stay was comfortable and the motel is a block away from the beach and the shops.

This property was fantastic. The room looked like it had just been tastefully renovated, and the grounds were immaculate. Other features, like plant-spaced car parking, a very nice outdoor pool, and available BBQs rounded out our list of top additional features. We had a fantastic two nights at this wonderful property.

We had an excellent two-day stay in a large, comfortable, and well appointed king suite. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and the location was very close to the beach, shops, and restaurants in Cowes as well as a great base for exploring Phillip Island.

The property was very clean and in a good location . I fell over the suit case stand during the night . I folded it up and moved my case over to the corner so I would not fall over it . Next day we went out sight seeing and when we came back my suit case had been moved back onto the suit case stand. I have never had my things moved around at any hotel I have stayed in before. There is also no sign to leave on the door saying do not disturb.
