Positive experience - a lovely property with amazing locale, beautiful room, nice dining choices nearby and surroundings. Maybe only criticism is it was priced steep for the value received.

Great spot for a weekend away. The winter sun warmed up the room in the morning and sitting on the deck was lovely. The staff were exceptionally good with their service and generosity. We enjoyed Sunday lunch with family and friends and wished we’d stayed another night.

I stayed from Monday to Friday. Staff are friendly and accommodating, the bungalow was awesome, location is fabulous on the lagoon water and a short walk 100m to the beach. The area is private and the restaurant onsite is great for lunch and/or dinner, and for brekkies there are a couple of great coffee shops up the road or at the southern end of the beach. Would happily stay again.

We loved staying in the bungalow at Caves Costal, it’s a lovely little bungalow with an excellent view of the water, clean tidy with an excellent pub close by for food and entertainment. A door on the toilet would be the only improvement that I think would make the place perfect. We will be back however! Thanks for a great weekend.
