Booked my accommodation very last minute and it was a pleasant surprise. Very friendly as well as professional staff and the manager, Colin, is most helpful. The rooms have lots of amenities, and the views from the room, pool and breakfast area are beautiful.

Stayed for a single night but will return for sure. Kate and Blessed’s hospitality is five stars and the location is fantastic for whale watching. The view from the dining room looks right out into the bay. Highly recommended.

Thanks to Kate, Blessed and their team for making our honeymoon so special. From the moment we arrived, the warm welcome made us feel right at home. The room was made so special that my new wife shared a tear. We wish Kate and Blessed every success.

We went here for our fifth anniversary. Carol and her team were amazing, and we could even see the whales from our room. This was an amazing experience. We would recommend it for getaways and holidays — and please stay for more than one night.
