The best sleep I had that week. The view from our room was incredible. Everything we could want was there for us. Only problem was the shower, the water pressure wasn't very strong. I would love to have a week staying at Whispering Sands.

Good room and location, interesting room layout, kitchen pretty squeezy, but everything you need and more, we self-catered dinner 3 nights, all good. BBQ also on offer, but a bit cold for that in mid-June. Nice big lounge area (we were only 2) and lovely view out the window (we were upstairs). Bed comfy. Hadn't seen a Topliss shower mixer (or a shower curtain) for a while...but again, all good, nice and clean etc. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic location right on the waterfront. Amazing walk meters away from the front door. Lovely units, clean and tody. Great amenities. Lovely staff. Thanks for our stay! Cafes close in both directions.
