Loved our stay here. Jane was such a pleasure at check-in and provided many great recommendations for restaurants in the area. The room itself was well taken care of and very clean. It was wonderful to have a kitchenette at this location. The pool area was a nice little oasis which we really enjoyed! Loved our stay at this boutique hotel in Merimbula, would definitely return!

Spacious room. Comfortable bed. Close to everything. Lovely receptionist. My only complaint is that there were no bedside drawers. The tiny shelves need to be replaced with storage.
