8/10 Very good

Definitely worth the stay.
Comfortable and clean. Owners very friendly and helpful. Lovely location within minutes of town and tourist spots. Despite being on the main road in to town it was very quiet. Loved the birds and animals on site. Cannot comment on food as they were unable to supply meals due to covid restrictions however tea/coffee making facilities are supplied as was fresh milk. The only issue, and this is likely out of the control of the owners, was the low water pressure although it was sufficient to have a shower and the water temperature was great. Wifi was fast and reliable.

The bird life visible from the balconies was pretty special. If you have a bird phobia, stay elsewhere! Otherwise, just sit back and enjoy the free display, camera in hand.

We were given the 'penthouse', and it was spacious and comfortable. We had dozens of lorikeets eating from our arms and shoulders on the verandah. Brilliant! Thoroughly recommended.

Amazing view and quiet
Was an ideal distance from Merimbula overlooking the town. A great view of the bay and bushland which was full of wildlife. The room was very clean and neat. Janine the owner at the desk is a lovely lady and very helpful with local knowledge. Just wished I could have stayed longer.

Brautiful Views at Budget Prices
Snug little hotel on the hillside above merimbula. Very friendly service. The most memorable aspect of this stay was getting up early to watch the sun rise over merimbula to a chorus of cockatoos, magpies, rainbow lorikeets and crows. I took several photos from the balcony. All rooms have northeast facing balconies with great views. I liked the location because of the views and the fact that it was very quiet, away from the bustle of town. It was about 2 minutes drive into town. For those who want to be on the beachfront or surrounded by cafes and restuarants, this is probably not the best location for you.
