The room was very clean and had a beautiful view. The staff were all friendly and polite. There was an issue when housekeeping entered our room with the privacy sign on the door. Outside of that issue the stay was wonderful

Karaka Tree Motel
I like the spa room plenty of space, got what I asked for ie shortage of towels/bathmats. Kitchen handy location in room but needs simple cleaning overall. Average stay for the price. Could do with a small couch inside and table/chairs for outside usage to enjoy the view of lake.
