Very friendly greeting on arrival. Unit was well maintained and had everything you might require, including washing machine, dryer and dishwasher. Great shower, lovely view from the upstairs balcony. Tin Can Bay itself is delightful. I would definitely go again.

The apartment had everything we needed -except for an oven - and well laid out for an easy stay. Manager on site and friendly. The position is great to enjoy the coastal walk and swim in the sheltered bay. Great to have the Snack Shack so close.
