One of the few motels of 1950s 'highway heritage', this mint-green weatherboard has stayed true to its roots on the outside, while the interiors are stylish, comfortable and include kitchenette. A lovely apartment with private deck suits longer stays. It's super handy for the airport and only a short stroll from North Kirra Beach.
