Great hotel, especially for exploring Pancake rocks and coast. However, be aware there's not much in the way dining options in the area. And the hotel restaurant is not great when it comes to vegetarian options.

Lovely hotel with stunning sea view’s. Our room had balcony with stunning views over the beach enabling us to watch our first sunset in the southern hemisphere. The restaurant was nice although the menus was a little limited and prices a little on the high side. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend the accommodation and would stay there again.
