Pleasant stay but needs sound proofing.
Pros:

Spacious and the location is good.

Cons:

Could hear conversations of the people staying next to us, resulting an early morning.
Also struggle to find reception.

Room with brick for furniture
Pros:

Leaving

The room was disgusting. Even the bedside table was on bricks. Bed coverings had questionable stains and the room stank.

The staff at Tannum are happy and helpful and made my stay easy and fun, THANK YOU!!
Pros:

I've rarely given a 10 out of 10, however this Tannum Sands Hotel Motel has received a 10 from me because of the staff. Staff all over were amazing, friendly, helpful, the cleaners, the kitchen, the barstaff, the bottleshop staff even the bouncer was nice and that's saying something! I believe it starts at the top so obviously the bosses are treating the staff well so they can be a happy team.

Cons:

There were no tissues in the room or bathroom.
