This 10 unit motel rests on 1 hectare (2.5 acres) of tropical gardens in which lives a wide variety of wildlife that often come to visit guests whilst they are relaxing or enjoying a barbeque.
The tropical gardens hold many botanical wonders such as the many varieties of bromeliads, orchids, king ferns, vanilla trees, huge fig trees, spectacular vines etc etc and is a very inviting relaxing place, to while away some time.
