Peppers Bluewater Resort
"Overall staff were helpful and the room was clean and warm, but I felt communication around checkin was lacking. For instance, our room was not ready for checkin for 2 hours and we were only told later on that the air con needed maintenance."

The Godley Hotel
"Could not find much to fault. The room was spotless, well appointed, with mini fridge, table, two chairs, with an enviable view of the lake. The shower/bathtub was a plus. However it did not have a microwave nor was not able to log on the internet. Very pleased with my room."
