Loved by Boat Harbour Motel guests
"Great room, large enough, many power points. Great furnished balcony with a great view."
"The location was perfect, right near the ocean for my morning walks! And of course near the city centre so easy to walk everywhere."
"And the main drawcard is the views and close proximity to the harbour, with the lighthouse and beach a small stroll away."
