We had a really lovely stay and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The room was clean, comfortable and well maintained and the location was fantastic. The staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, which made the whole experience very easy and enjoyable. We especially loved the beach views and being so close to everything. It was a great place for a little family getaway and we’d happily stay again. Highly recommend!
Very well situated close to the beach, lighthouse and restaurants.
Very helpful staff who allowed early check-in and late check-out at no extra cost for my convenience as I was attending a conference.
Rooms clean and spacious with lovely views.
I would definitely reccommend.
The room , grounds and property were immaculate. Staff helpful and friendly. Brilliant little shop to pick up forgotten items or something needed. Fantastic cocktails and food and in house bars and restaurant. Our first stay , we can not recommend more highly.
Great location and central. Across from beach. Issues with moths they were everywhere and cockroach in our bathroom. Some of the light switches and power points didn’t work in our room. But the room looked to be recently renovated, service was great. Pool wasn’t really heated as indicated and didn’t like location of sauna inside woman’s bathroom nor that they were separate to men’s. Coukdnt have a sauna with my husband. Kids activity room was spacious and good activities. North bar menu could be expanded on a bit more too.
Room was pun not intended roomy, simple yet stylish bathroom, room was soundproof and the view was amazing. Staff were welcoming and checking in and out were efficient.
Great location close to beach and main harbour. Lots of variety with restaurants and bars on site. Cafes also close by. Staff were very helpful and service was excellent. Swimming pool and sauna were great. Parking was an additional $39 per day.
The rooms were clean and large. The reception and cleaning staff were super helpful and friendly. Breakfast had so many delicious options. Its location and access to the beach front is absolutely incredible. Thank you Novotel. We will stay with you again.
Staff were polite, friendly and very helpful.
The room was serviced every day and the view from the balcony was stunning as we could see from the Escarpment to the beach.
Lots to choose from at breakfast, continually being replenished so no shortage of anything.
We had a relaxing stay, large rooms with all the necessary amenities, in front of the beach and close to cafe's and restaurants. We had a wonderful stay
