The grounds were beautiful, the pool was lovely, and it was right on the beach. The facilities were clean, the air conditioning worked well (which was much appreciated), the shower was great, and the food at Shipwreck was delicious

Absolutely loved having beach access right there and the view is absolutely stunning. A nice, small hotel that makes you feel you have the place to yourself at times. Located close enough to Muri Lagoon but without the noise of families and tourist activities. Except for the occasional beach walker, the beach area was used exclusively by hotel guests. Room was clean and well appointed, friendly hotel staff and a bonus having a restaurant on site.
