Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A comfortable well located motel. From the time we checked in Sean went out of his way to ensure our stay was enjoyable. We were in one of the back studio units and all though the motel is situated on a very busy main road traffic , noise was never a problem.The unit was spotlessly clean and has recently been refurbished and redecorated with a new spa bath in the bathroom. This motel is close to the beach with a small superette, fast food outlets and restaurants all within walking distance. I would happily stay here again.

Fantastic place to stay and relax. Owners are easy going, willing to make your stay as comfortable and peaceful as they can. Nothing at all is an issue for them, even changing items in your unit around to your needs. Cleaning staff are amazing and will check if you need anything on their rounds, very respectful and always leave the unit spotless, clean and tidy after a service. Bed and pillows sooo compatible. Very spacious bathroom, lounge and kitchen (has everything you need). I liked how each unit has there own private patio with ash trays for smokers (which is hard to find with motels these days). Walking distance to Restaurants, Takeaways and Garage for quick supplies. Very close to the Airport also. Loved my long stay at Tutor Lodge and didn't want to leave 🌈

This motel made our stay so pleasant, it was of a high standard, we only stayed for one night as we were touring but would have loved to have stayed longer. The rooms were very clean and had all the extra little touches, a lot of thought had gone into the planning and comfort for guests. It was in an amazing location, being minutes away from the beach and shops and restaurants. Highly recommend.

What a great place. On arrival, Sean welcomed us warmly and showed us the ropes. From then on, we enjoyed our 4-night stay immensely, in a spacious and well-equipped room with everything we needed. The bed was comfy, the shower nice and hot and everything worked fine, except for the fridge which froze everything except the wine ! Parking is allocated behind the buildings and cannot be seen from the road . Overall, it's wonderful and certainly a motel worth returning to.

Very friendly hosts, the clean and warm room met our needs with a separate kitchen and separate bathroom. The main room was spacious and included a dining area and two soft chairs for lounging. Would certainly stay there again.

Spacious, comfortable and all equipment needed was provided. Short walk to a glorious beach and shops, restaurants and take always nearby. The owner was extremely helpful and is eager to provide top quality. There are different rooms to suit all groups and also a three bedroom house which is very spacious and homely.(photo of house attached.)Wished we could have stayed longer than one night.
