Loved the vibe of this beautiful place.
Pros:

Absolutely loved this place. It’s beautifully tranquil and has so much character. There are several different areas to sit and relax in and some stunning art work decorating the property. We were so well looked after by Leanne who made us a delicious breakfast each morning. It was also great to be able to chat to the other guests over breakfast.

Cons:

Nothing really apart from maybe needing some more shade over the loungers by the pool.

Highly recommended
Pros:

A unique property perfect for chilling out and sightseeing around Broome. Built with the weather in mind, it has wraparound verandas providing comfort and shade with sofas and chairs, situated in gardens providing a lovely oasis. Great little swimming pool with comfy sun loungers. Breakfast was different every day and beautifully cooked, and provided an opportunity to talk to fellow guests and swap travel stories. Our bedroom had a renovated bathroom and was equipped with everything we needed and more.

Pros:

It's a relaxed welcoming - "homelike" feel... rare to find such genuine care for the guests and immaculately managed.
The communal breakfast table is a stroke of genius.. giving guests a chance to connect and exchange stories about their travel and adventures.
