Shoredrive Motel

8/10 Good

"Good spot. Close to beach. Could do with new mattresses was awake more than asleep"

Picnic Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"These are newly renovated units that are very modern and functional. The decor is great and the size is adequate. The free breakfast offered is so amazingly tasty and large in portion generously. The shuttle service is included which is so prompt and efficient from and to the ferry terminal. The staff are very accommodating, friendly and pleasant. We highly recommend this hotel which is 5 mins from the terminal. The location is quiet and restaurant is next door to the hotel. There are a few other restaurants very close to the hotel on the esplanade. Overall, it’s a 5 star with great amenities and service."

Angelwaters

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious well appointed 2 room apartment. Clean and fairly modern. Some nice touches with recipe books and basics such as containers of sugar, coffee, tea etc - not just those small single serves you get everywhere. Communications with the hosts were very good. Good off-street parking. Located at the northern end of North Ward and one street back from the Strand. Only a couple of eateries/coffee places close by but the numbers increase the further you go heading back towards the southern end. Very handy to the Jezzine/Kissing Point park and the Rock Pool. Street noise etc not too bad - about what you'd expect. You're not in the country after all. Lovely place to stay."
