Hotel has an amazing 180 deg view of the ocean - you can see both sunrise and sunset. The hotel was clean and well maintained. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. There’s also a beautiful garden and small pool behind the hotel. I’ll definitely be back!

The property is just located nearby the ferry terminal and tourist information center, which provides stunning views of the harbor. The room is so tidy, and the kiosk nearby really offers many dinning options. The staff there is very friendly and helpful as well.

Located within walking distance to IGA, cafes, the local pub, and a penguin encounter. We stayed in a new villa which had a small kitchen and was very roomy.

As grew up in Penneshaw and my Dad was friendly with previous German owners, I loved the old photos in hallway, the original stair bannister, the swimming pool. Thanks
