The unit was wonderfully positioned with water views through a wall of glass then onto the private balcony overlooking native vegetation down to the water's edge. The sunrise was spectacular through this window, and the sunset was similarly beautiful through the restaurant's windows. Our meal at Lure Wine Bar & Restaurant was really memorable, tasty, perfectly cooked, vegetables hot and delicious. Staff service was excellent, local wines complimented the meal.

Stunning location but disappointed
The location and the view from the room are stunning. Wallabies hop up onto the private outdoor deck and the beach is just in front of the suite. Dinner in the restaurant was very good. However, the service really detracts from the experience. The reception staff made it very clear that all the required information was in the room compendium. This was not the case. On our second day we discovered that barista coffee and a limited breakfast was available in the restaurant rather than just the continental breakfast provided to the room that was described in the compendium and in an email provided prior to our arrival. We stayed 3 nights and the room did not have a complete clean on any day we stayed. We had to request more shampoo from reception! The room rate for this hotel is similar to a 5 star hotel in Sydney but the service is not commensurate.
