Loved this place
Great place on the beach. The view of the beach is amazing. Nice and clean and had all the amenities needed. We really enjoyed our stay. Portable heater provided when bedroom got cold. Heating in the rest of the place made it nice and comfortable.

Fabulous view from our room. Well equipped kitchenette to cook dinner as no dining options open on a Tuesday night. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Would stay again if in the area and recommend to others.

10/10 Exceptional

A beautiful location, waking up every morning to the gorgeous Hectors Dolphins playing and feeding right out front of the room. Being able to swim with them in the habitat was an exceptional experience. The property has everything you need for a stay of any length. Just bring your own food, and insect repellent for the sandflies. The room was light and airy, clean and tidy with a lovely big bathroom. There is an upstairs room and the second night of our stay some people stayed in that room, Any walking around and moving of furniture they did could be clearly heard in our room. A bit annoying as the first night no one was there and it was lovely and quiet. New people also moved into the room beside us on the second day and they were a bit thumpy and bangy too. The couple there on first night were very quiet. Thankfully both noisy couples retired early therefore the noise stopped, perhaps owners could look into some sort of sound proofing, or even tell customers to be considerate of other guests. Other than this we loved the property and the perfect location and hope to return someday

Curio Bay/Porpoise Beach was an outstanding location. We loved the beachfront position where we could watch the dolphins playing right in the shallows. The famous petrified forest was brilliant, you can look at something 160 million years old. The Star filled dark sky was exquisite
